Carne Asada Marinade Recipes abound on the Internet, and, at first glance, they all look about the same.

Restaurant food warmers are an important part of any successful restaurant. They allow kitchens to offer high volume output during peak periods that do not allow for extended cook times. They're also great for holding slower moving menu items that are easily held, such as macaroni and cheese or lasagna. Both of these items can be held for long periods of time, yet be presented as fresh from the oven. This saves the chef and staff both valuable time and keeps customers happy as they are served piping hot food that tastes wonderful. Not all restaurant food warmers perform so efficiently though. There are a lot of newer technologies out today that provide more efficient means of holding food. You...

A restaurant food warmer is an integral part of any restaurant business. They keep food warm and are supposed to also maintain the quality of the food. However, not all do this as well as they should. A lot of older restaurant food warmers use fans to circulate hot air. Think about that for a moment. A fan, circulating hot air all around the food. What would that possibly lead to? A nice juicy steak would turn into a hard chunk of leather. No one would want to eat that. That is what happens all too often with older restaurant food warmers though. What can you do about this? You can find new technologies in the restaurant food warmer industry and trust me, there are some out there. It may sound like...

So many people assume control of an already existing establishment assuming that they have a grasp on the fundamental aspects of proper restaurant management, when very few actually do. Of course, food distributors are a very integral piece of the puzzle that is seldom overlooked. Most new restaurant owners then move on to equally vital matters such as evaluating the current staff, streamlining or changing the menu and advertising the change of ownership locally. What they rarely consider is that at some point, one or more pieces of restaurant kitchen equipment will probably fail. Unfortunately, events like these tend to happen on a busy night with the front of the house packed full of customers...

Alvin Starkman  M.A., LL.B.   Thankfully the recent expansion from 24 to 40 seats hasn’t detracted from the intimacy and quaintness of this downtown Italian restaurant and pizzeria.  It still has classy yet welcoming décor of deep cranberry and white walls, simple pine tables and cushioned chairs stained dark to enhance a bistro-like feeling, and not to be overshadowed, floor-length draperies well-matched to the magenta / wine tones. The soft sound of jazz heard from the street is alone enough to make you want to take a peak in, and then you’re hooked.        You’re warmly welcomed by Italian owner Simone, who is almost always on hand.  His presence remains, yet more in the nature of...

The color and design of your restaurant menu cover speak a thousand words. A haphazard, run-of-the-mill cover may suggest that the dishes inside are bland and uninspired. In contrast, a nicely-done cover with a great color scheme could entice the diners to check out the specials and spend more money on a hearty meal. The history of menus being handed out to diners dates back to the early 1700s when entrepreneurs realized that it is important to give diners plenty of choices. Before this development, there wasn't much too choose from in terms of dishes. Customers would simply order whatever the cook had fixed for the day. But soon the competition increased, and this led to variety. To this day...

The Wagon Wheel has been an institution in Escondido, California for over 40 years now. On what seems to be only the second set of owners in it's history the restaurant gives patrons the chance to step back in time to enjoy a home cooked meal in a comfortable red leather booth while paying prices that would remind you more of 1985 then 2005. I recently had the opportunity to enjoy dinner on a Friday evening at the Wagon Wheel Restaurant in Escondido, CA. Located off of the 78 Freeway it is easy to locate with plenty of parking both in front and in back, an old wooden building houses one of the oldest running restaurants in San Diego county. After finding my way to a corner booth I started by...

Hello. Lately, I'd been thinking about finding a barbecue restaurant in Sacramento that has great food. I know, there are a few places around Sac, but most of them are just decent. Being originally from Oakland,CA., my family and I were so used to seeing bbq spots all over the city. You really did'nt have to look too hard to find a great place that served barbecue. The toughest decision was deciding which one to go to! The 3 that we visited the most were Flint's, Dixon's, and Everett & Jones. There are tons of others, but those were our favorites. I set out to find a restaurant in Sacramento that could fulfill the need that I had for barbecue. One that could fill the void left from no...

Every restaurant can benefit from proper food costing. Food costing is one of the most important elements for making your restaurant more profitable. Costing out your food enables you to have complete control over how much you spend on food and allows you to price your dishes for maximum profit, as well as good value to your customer. Typically, food costs should account for around 1/3 of a restaurant's expenses. The food cost along with labor and overhead costs should account for more than 2/3 of the total expenses. Above that is the profit the restaurant will generate. Since food costs are one of the highest expenses for a restaurant, food costing is viewed as one of the best ways to increase...

While I was lost in the beauty of the scenic Indian Ocean's panorama, some movements in the restaurant draw my attention. Casting a glance over there, I noticed that Marita Kantar is just wandering there, thinking of something seriously in the center part of the restaurant. She has come back again to continue her research after two months away from the Resort in Germany. Marita is a dynamic student from the then East German part of Germany. She was doing her undergraduate studies in the field of managing social sciences at the Wismar University in the scenic Wismar City of Baltic sea area. She coordinated with me to organize the "Night of a Thousand Dinners" - a success at the Aquarius Sports Resort...

Before you think of setting up a restaurant, you need to understand first that doing so will never be problem proof, easy task. There are numerous steps involved in opening your very own restaurant, and sometimes things might spiral out of your own control because of factors outside your influence.

It is very hard to set up a restaurant by yourself - even if you have all the competencies and the skills needed to run the business. You must surround yourself with people who have experience opening a restaurant and keeping it profitable for a long time. For basic...

Many of prefer to go to Denny's because maybe you have always gone there or maybe because it is less expensive than some other places. This is okay, but it is best to stay away from their new fried cheese melt with wavy fries and marinara sauce. It contains one thousand two hundred and sixty calories and sixty-three grams of fat not to mention loads of sodium. A better Denny's option is the BLT with hash browns. This is only seven hundred and thirty calories and forty-seven grams of fat. Another place that you may consider for a cheaper meal is IHOP; however, their New York cheesecake pancakes have one thousand two hundred and seventy calories. A healthier choice is chocolate chip pancakes with only...

Intrigued by a scathing review of Tom's Terrace, the latest venture of Michelin starred Tom Aikens, by respected critic Jay Rayner in the Observer I set off on the UK's hottest day to the spectacular location overlooking the Thames at Somerset House. I think it's fair to say the Mr Rayner hated his meal and so, perhaps, became a bit hard on the whole enterprise. It's hard to see, for instance what is not to like about a restaurant hovering above the Thames, shaded by trees probably hundreds of years old and a futuristic canvas roof. At the rear of perhaps the most beautiful house in London.  Certainly my guest, a gourmet who travels the world telling giant pharmaceutical companies how to sell their...
