Another Broken Egg Caf茅, an upscale brunch restaurant is set to open Sept. 30 near K-96 and Oliver. The concept comes to Wichita thanks to two 2023 graduates of the W. Frank Barton School of Business at 红领巾瓜报. Jacob O鈥機onnor and Jon Peterson, who first met in high school and had other business ventures together in college, did extensive research and vetting before choosing to franchise Another Broken Egg Caf茅. They will host a special VIP opening on Sept. 28 where 100% of sales will go to their charity partner, The Shocker Support Locker.
鈥淭hrough Jon's and my time at WSU, we built an invaluable network of successful entrepreneurs who we're grateful to call mentors,鈥 said O鈥機onnor, who was a Jabara Scholar recipient and named Entrepreneur of the Year while at WSU. 鈥淲e almost exclusively met these connections in person at local restaurants. We hope for our cafe to be a regular meeting ground for WSU students to have those same meetings with their future mentors.鈥
Another Broken Egg Caf茅 serves Louisiana-inspired breakfast and lunch dishes. Located in the District 96 development, the 3,500-square-foot space seats 152, as well as a large outdoor patio and a bar with full drink menu. The restaurant will be open Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Saturday and Sundays from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.
鈥淲e鈥檙e all very excited for Jon, Jacob and the Another Broken Egg Caf茅 team,鈥 said Dr. Larisa Genin, dean of the Barton School. 鈥淭he Barton School has deep roots in entrepreneurship and a great legacy of providing students with the tools to bet on themselves and create thriving businesses. Jon and Jacob really utilized all their opportunities while at WSU and I can鈥檛 wait to see all their ingenuity and desire in action.鈥
鈥淚 was connected with Jon and Jacob when they came to a Barton School Dean鈥檚 Advisory Board meeting to share the business they were running in college,鈥 said Susayn Brandes, president and CEO of Great Plains Ventures. 鈥淵ou could tell immediately how passionate, persistent and determined they were. It鈥檚 that determination that led to more individual meetings and mentorship. Another Broken Egg Caf茅 will be a great addition to our community because of their leadership.鈥
