hat does a man in a
chicken costume, the
owner of a new restau-
rant and a traveler on
the third Michigan Miracle Mission
to Israel have in common? Easy —
they are all named Todd Rones.
With this month's grand opening of
the Intelligent Chicken restaurant and
catering business on Northwestern
Highway in Farmington Hills, Todd
and his partner, Andy Brenner, are
marking the culmination of plans they
began making in Israel.
Andy and his. wife, Tammy, first
met Todd and Julie Rones at a pre-
mission gathering. Todd says he and
Andy "immediately hit it off" and _
talked about the restaurant Todd was
planning to open.
Todd actually wanted to reopen
his former place, the Intelligent
Chicken. The business was eliminat-
ed when the mall it inhabited under-
went remodeling.
After three years of Internet day
trading and working as an opera-
tions manager for a distribution

house, Todd says he was encouraged
to reopen by former Intelligent
Chicken customers. It was a pleasant
discovery for him to learn that Andy
was interested in returning to the
food service profession, having
trained under a chef in an Arizona
eatery. Andy had been working the
last two years in a family cleaning
business in Houghton Lake.
The Roneses, involved in the
Jewish Federation of Metropolitan
Detroit's Young Adult Division, par-
ticipated in the miracle mission last
April "as a great way to see Israel
and meet other young Jewish cou-
ples," Todd says.
They originally planned to travel
with others from their synagogue,
Congregation B'nai Moshe, but
joined the YAD bus when they dis-
covered there would be one.
While on the trip, the Roneses
and the Brenners became friendly
with a third couple, Carolann and
Robert "Bob" Goode. "None of us
really knew one another before
going to Israel," says Carolann,
although she and her husband had
met the Brenners at Temple Israel,
where both families are members.
