📄 Starting a restaurant, like any new business, requires a solid business plan. This is the step that may become a stumbling block for those unfamiliar with business plans and how they are presented.

👉 Restaurant business plans are divided into sections that describe all the aspects of your new business, from your restaurant concept to your financials.

🙌 The the reason of this is to help you flesh out the finer details and summarize your business to potential investors. When you reach out for restaurant loans, the restaurant business plan serves as proof that your venture will be successful.

Sounds complex? Don’t worry! We got you covered. Call or email us today to find out how we can help you!

👆 By comparing each menu item based on their popularity and profitability, you’ll have a clear image of which menu item is making you the most profit, and which dish is holding you back.

📑 With the knowledge of your sales data and food cost, you can clearly see each menu item in the following 4 categories, and some corrective actions:

⭐⭐⭐⭐: High Profitability and High Popularity - Keep up the good work!
⭐⭐⭐: High Profitability and Low Popularity – Increase marketing emphasis? Slightly lower the menu price? Maybe it just needs a better picture on social media!
⭐⭐: Low Profitability and High Popularity – Let’s try lower the food cost without sacrificing the flavor.
⭐: Low Profitability and Low Popularity – This dish needs a makeover. Try a new presentation, an improved menu description, or sometimes it may just need to be retired.

👉 Every menu needs some tweaking once in a while, and menu engineering is a great tool to help you improve the profitability of the entire menu.

👥 At Culinary Matters we love the creative process of developing menus with our clients—the tasting, combining of flavors, cooking, testing, and starting over until it’s right is what we're here for!

✔️ When creating or revamping a menu with our clients, it is very important to hold multiple tastings to review the taste, portion, and presentation of each menu item. Sometimes we to go back to the drawing board, most times, we hit the spot with only minor tweaks.

🤳 The best part about client tastings is not only getting constructive feedback for their menu(s) but that we also get to spend quality time with them!

Why do we have to count inventory?

🧾 Restaurant inventory is quite unique because it is perishable and constantly changing depending on food price fluctuations, sales volumes, menu mix, etc.

🍽️ Regardless of the style of the restaurant, inventory values directly affects the bottom line. Keeping track of your inventory is essential to the financial well-being of the restaurant.

A well-kept record of your inventory can:
🔹 Control food cost
🔹 Reinforce “First In First Out”
🔹 Prevent theft and improper portioning
🔹 Track sales and guests’ purchase habits
🔹 Reduce unnecessary food waste
🔹 Provide a more precise profit margin
🔹 Give insights for future purchase and vendor selection

🙌 We can help you set up a complete and user-friendly inventory system that helps you keep track of all the ingredients that flow in and out of your restaurant with no blind spots.

🤔 Why is standardized recipe important?

Having a standardized recipe system in your kitchen:
✔️ Prevent inconsistencies during cooking and prepping amongst different staff members
✔️ Setting clear standards for cooking procedure and quality of the end product
✔️ Greatly facilitate food cost calculation and menu engineering
✔️ Keep track usage of high-value ingredients, especially with the volatile food prices recently
✔️ Help establish the flow of raw materials and reduce food waste

📞 Do you need a book of standardized recipes in your kitchen to keep your product at the consistently-high quality we all strive for? We can help you! Contact us at: +1 (281) 262-2425.

✔️ At Culinary Matters, we take menu planning seriously!

🔹 Step 1) We meet with our client to hear what their concept is or what they want their concept to be.
🔹 Step 2) Our Culinary Director now starts his market research on the clients chosen concept.
It’s important to do this because you want to know what / who your concept may be competing with, what has been successful or unsuccessful in the past or what’s on trend at this current moment.
🔹 Step 3) Now it’s time we draft the initial menu - at this stage, we’re not ready to share this with the client just yet!
🔹 Step 4) starts his solo recipe tasting to help develop the clients drafted menu further.
🔹 Step 5) After we’ve researched, drafted, tasted and repeated a few times to the point where we are confident in the recipes / menu, it’s time to share and taste with the client!
