The Official Kitchen Tune-Up Dictionary

ktu-dictionary.jpg

Businesses often have their own unique dictionaries, usually with company specific abbreviations or shorthand. What most businesses don’t have though, is an entire array of nouns and verbs that play off their name. At Kitchen Tune-Up, our franchise owners named themselves “Tunies” over three decades ago and even designated new and seasoned franchise owners as “Baby Tunies” and “Tuneasaurases.” Over time, the play on words has grown, and we now present the official Kitchen Tune-Up dictionary!
