Why do families do this to themselves ?
FALMOUTH — A legal dispute is heating up between family members over who can use the trademark for an iconic local pizzeria.
George Sotiropoulos was set to open the new Foreside House of Pizza this week in the same Falmouth Shopping Center storefront where his parents previously ran the longtime Falmouth House of Pizza. The new restaurant sign prominently displays the “FHOP” moniker.
Antonia and Steve Sotiropoulos – George’s parents – meanwhile are seeking a zone change to build a new Falmouth House of Pizza restaurant and brewery farther north on Route 1.
And, according to their attorney, the elder Sotiropouloses are also just weeks away from opening a boutique eatery, FHOP Express, with a limited menu, inside the new Ela Market & Grill at 125 Bucknam Road. Ela is owned and operated by their youngest son, Nicholas.
