Developing a new restaurant is complicated. The stories shared in The Restaurant Dream? will help aspiring restaurateurs avoid some of the common pitfalls that many developers experience. And although the book is over 300 pages, I cannot help but think about all that is NOT included. There is a lot to know, but a little experience can go along way. If you do not have that experience yourself, you should find a way to access the expertise you require – somehow, some way.

If you are serious about your desire to open a restaurant, and are looking for some professional guidance, then perhaps we can help. I have assembled a network of experienced professionals with a wide range of experience in developing and designing restaurants.

Our expertise includes general design and planning, interior design, logo design, menu development, financial planning, operations implementation … pretty much everything you read about in the book.

The structure of the group is extremely fluid, and only the expertise required is utilized. If a conceptual floorplan is needed to confirm that a site is the right location – no problem. If assistance is desired for all phases of the development process, again – no problem. Our network is focused on helping the restaurateur succeed. We pull in the professionals that are best suited to help the restaurant developer with their unique set of needs. And if we cannot help, we will let you know.

As I tell all of my clients, I guarantee that there will be problems with the development of any new restaurant. The key, however, is to try to proactively limit as many of those mistakes as possible, before they occur.
