MENU PLANNING & ENGINEERING

MENU DESIGNING-STANDARDIZING- MENU COSTING-MENU PRICING-KITCHEN OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT- SYSTEMS &

PROCESSES-TRAINING

Developing a restaurant menu is often a

complicated process and mostly driven by the concept of the restaurant and

the cuisine selection. There is a science behind the art of

developing a menu. Most of the restaurants are successful in developing

the art of designing a menu but very often it is not backed by

measurable processes and systems to monitor the cost

efficiency of the menu.

Menu Engineering is about taking a more structured approach to

building and monitoring a menu.

MENU PLANNING & ENGINEERING

MENU DESIGNING-STANDARDIZING- MENU COSTING-MENU PRICING-KITCHEN OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT- SYSTEMS &

PROCESSES-TRAINING

We help to develop all kinds of food & beverage menus from Authentic Indian to Arabic,

Asian to European , Mediterranean to Tex Mex and also create fusion menu concepts.

All our recipes are created after doing R&D at our end, ensuring availability of raw

ingredients, seasonal produce which in turn helps in effective costing & pricing.

Proper menu design and engineering will have a profound impact on your sales, profits

and guest satisfaction.

We also develop the kitchen systems & processes and train the chefs for best results.

KITCHEN DESIGN-STRATEGIC APPROACH

These days, because of high real estate prices & rentals, in many restaurants,

the Kitchen Area is relatively small and cramped. A poorly designed kitchen cuts

into the bottom line of a restaurant and increases employee turnover.

Even a small area can be converted into a smart & efficient kitchen with

professional guidance.

Kitchen is the backbone of all successful restaurants around the world, and an ill

planned kitchen can prove to be a disaster for your restaurant operations.

Our years of experience working in international standard kitchens helps us to

design modern kitchens in limited space which can overcome any kind of challenge.

RESTAURANT DESIGN-THEMES & CONCEPTS

Designing Restaurants requires a different skill set and imagination, a different flair and a

Strategic approach to the layout plan which can only be developed and delivered by someone

having extensive shop floor experience of Opening or Running Restaurants.

Often standalone restaurants are designed by home interiors or office interior firms who lack the

acumen, know-how or the creativity to set up a restaurant and more often than not come up with

a nice looking restaurant with plenty of Operational Flaws. Then the owners are left with two

choices, either to live with it or make the necessary alterations by spending even more money.

Our team contributes to the success and profits of any dining establishment. Planning a

restaurant’s interior design begins with your budget followed by market research, continues with

understanding the market trends and concludes with strategic execution.

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT

Restaurant training as much more than teaching the server staff how to set a table, take an order or serve

a meal. You can’t separate restaurant training from marketing. If you have made a good marketing plan, but

neglected effective restaurant training, great marketing will just kill a bad operation faster.

Your employees are the biggest marketing tool for your business.

Restaurant training isn’t just a cost center or a cost of doing business, it’s an investment into a higher

return on profit. It is vitally important to the success of a restaurant.

Restaurant Management Training: Guest Experience

Your restaurant managers have a role that is far more vital to impart your restaurant’s brand and

Positioning on staff members and guests.

We offer a variety of restaurant training programs to help our clients improve culture, understanding of core

values and company objectives. We involve and enroll the entire organization in the pursuit of your vision. We

also offer cutting-edge service training systems. Our restaurant training programs are custom-built around

your unique operation and designed to raise the bar for service and performance.

candidates suitable for your type of restaurant, concept, theme and

clientele, thereby increasing manpower turnover, which is one of the

major causes of failure in the food business.
