Perspective

The Training Table Restaurants was founded in October 1977. The Training Table was family owned and operated by Kent and Stephanie Chard. It was known for its cheese fries and dipping sauce, along with several sandwich and hamburger preparations. It had locations in Layton, Sugar House, Cottonwood, West Valley, South Towne and Riverton. Until the early 2010s, it also had a location on the eastern edge of downtown Salt Lake City. In 2012 the business had a hard money lender and was near bankruptcy.[1] In 2012 Stephanie Chard purchased 50% of The Training Table Restaurants, which was a family business.[2] Stephanie Chard strategically navigated the company through this tumultuous time and became CEO in 2014.[3] During 2015 Stephanie Chard became aware of misconduct between various individuals associated with The Training Table Restaurants.[4][5] Stephanie Chard worked for one year to resolve the ongoing dispute, but was unable to come to a resolution with the various parties involved.[6] In 2016 a lawsuit was filed on behalf of Training Table and Stephanie Chard which alleged securities fraud and legal malpractice claims associated with the corporation, among other allegations.[7][8] In 2016, the Landlords, who were also part owners of Training Table and longtime advisors of Training Table, terminated The Training Table Restaurant's leases, and sold the properties to a third party, closing Training Table after 39 years.[9] They announced that they had gone out of business on November 30, 2016, on their Facebook page.[10]
