Sylvester Stallone's Restaurant Deal

In the movie "Rocky Balboa" Sylvster Stallone's iconic boxer character became a restaurant owner. Now Stallone owns an Italian restaurant in real life, or at least he partly owns a whole chain of them. Stallone, Charlie Sheen and Danny DeVito celebrated the Planet Hollywood purchase of the Buca di Beppo restaurant chain on Wednesday at the restaurant's Universal City location. The restaurant will be serving Danny DeVito's Premium Limóncello, with a portion of the proceeds from Limoncello sales going to benefit The Heart Association. The chain serves family style Italian food including pizza, ravioli, and chicken Marsala at modest prices.

Stallone should be advised that restaurant owning isn't all fun and games. The Nobu chain, which is partly owned by Robert De Niro, recently paid $2.5 million to settle a lawsuit over the way it handle worker tips.
