Brother’s Grill, 403 E. Grand River Ave., did not open for business Monday or Tuesday and it is not known when or if the restaurant will resume operation.
Eric Gunn, owner of the year-old burger and sandwich eatery, said the economy has hindered all businesses and his hasn’t been an exception.
“When we’re busy, we’re busy,” Gunn said. “But it’s hard the first year or two years, and it’s even harder right now. This is our generation’s version of hard times.”

Sounds like Brother’s Grill just became the best place in town to talk about the economy.
I don’t have time to explain everything, so I’m resorting to bribery for now. Maybe if I can get a little extra cash into your pocket and power in your hands, you’ll start to see things my way. The rest you can pass on to your friends.
The big issue right now is the economy.
Let’s all work together and help it out a bit. We the people style all the way. Just aim for an American pocket while you’re enjoying our truly awesome free market economy, and buy American made when you can. It’s not always easy to find, so listen for the question while you’re standing in line. “Did you find everything you were looking for?” No, I didn’t. We need to let our retailers know, as politely as possible, that the American worker is back in demand. Fill in the gaps. We need consumer confidence, jobs, and balanced trade. Talk to each other. Comment sections, water coolers or Brother’s Grill will do just fine.
If you will, take it from here.
