| Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] |
As of December 31, 2012, we were organized into two business segments: (1) restaurant ownership and management and (2) investment management and consulting services businesses. However, we announced our intention to exit investment management and consulting services businesses in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and effectuated such exit during the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Accordingly at December 31, 2013, we no longer report by segment.
