Eventually he became a business man owning a petrol service station in Kentucky, one of the 52 states of the USA. Many travellers stopped at his service station wanting refreshments and food. The Colonel saw this as a business opportunity and decided to offer food to these customers. The Colonel enjoyed making his customers happy he was passionate about entertaining them with excellent food and superb service. His food and service was so good that he was mentioned in several newspapers around the country. As a result he had to expand his dining room to keep up with the increase in new customers. This 'Customer Mania' experience made people drive from far away just to visit the Colonel's restaurant. A winning recipe! After careful testing for many years to find just the right combination of ingredients, the Colonel knew that he was at last onto a winning recipe. When he added the 11th and final ingredient, he was truly satisfied that he had created the best chicken he had ever tasted he wanted to share it with the world!
