''I am really in love with Tennessee. "

Gus J. Sader's enthusiasm for Williamson County is certain as he explains what led him here from his beginnings in Paris, France.

Sader, the manager of Maxwell's Restaurant in Franklin, was brought here by Mycor Inc., an Arlington. Va., based company whose corporate office is in Franklin.

''I am here on a mission. The owners of the Maxwell Restaurant are very interested in making a good restaurant here for the people of Williamson County,'' Sader says. ''It is my goal to reposition this restaurant as the place to visit and to eat home country cooking.

'I am here on a mission. I love the challenge, the contact with people. I greatly appreciate the values and traditions that I find here in Williamson County. The people, they are so friendly.'
