Restaurant Services The restaurant business can be rough. Unyielding competition, high turnover, and fickle public tastes do not make it a field for the fainthearted. The restaurateur faces a number of challenges. The restaurateur competes with large, sophisticated fast food and chain operators, firms with well-established names and ample advertising budgets. With limited capital resources, the restaurateur is often at the mercy of local real estate trends. Advertising is minimal and typically by “word of mouth.” In spite of this, or perhaps because of it, the restaurateur is often successful. Where small operators fall down is during expansion, because their experience is limited. Little mistakes in the planning stage can eventually defeat even the best chef. An exhaust system that doesn’t work, a noisy kitchen and dining area, a high sill at the kitchen door waiting to trip the unwary waiter......, these defects can plague a restaurant for years. An inefficient dishwasher, however, is only a minor irritation compared to a restaurant with a high food or labor cost created by poor planning decisions. A restaurant in the wrong market won’t even be in business long enough to notice the little problems. Many restaurants fail during the first year, some because of poor planning before and during the design process; others because of poor execution of the plan. That’s why we urge you to call Marenic Food Service Consulting first, before these decisions are cast in concrete.
