On Border has sunk

Зображення
The Texas-Mexican restaurant chain On Border has filed for voluntary bankruptcy, closing 40 out of its 60 establishments (some sources report as many as 80). There is a lingering suspicion that many of these closures and the discrepancies in reported figures stem from the franchises operated under the Tex-Mex holding. It raises an intriguing question as to how those foolish individuals, who opted to invest in this “high-quality” opportunity instead of establishing their own businesses, will justify such a “remarkable” outcome; how will they explain the disappearance of their funds to their families, and why wealth has not materialized? He claims that the decision to declare bankruptcy was influenced by the market, with its inflation, "challenging conditions," rising costs, and a shortage of labor, as well as the debt that had prompted creditors to initiate enforcement actions. Imagine, when they embarked on their entrepreneurial journey, they were utterly convinced th...

Who is needed instead of sole proprietors?

Some analysts, journalists, and economic experts are concerned about the reasons that drive Ukrainian businesses to close. They create infographics, like the one made by Opendatabot, loudly proclaiming that taxes are destroying the middle class. The government doesn't care; it likes that its "business advisors" suggest "milking" and "plucking" Ukrainians as if they were animals in a pen. It doesn't see that "milking" and "plucking" the half-dead or dead, instead of producing something useful and tasty, results in something rotten and inedible, like in a Soviet vegetable warehouse. In reality, according to our observations, entrepreneurs are most harassed by tax authorities and other "controllers" who are always looking to get something from businesses for free, or at least with a huge discount, draining profits and making their business situation unstable, shaky, and unprotected.

It turned out that McDonald’s had its own University of hamburger. Didn't know? I also. Its existence became known after this fastfood chain decided to resume the work of the university, appointed the former head of the university from ... the Boeing. They write that it will help modernize its education system for "restaurants" at this university, increase its level and blah blah blah..., something else, not at all interesting against the background that such a miracle existsturned out It's from here

Is this a restaurant?

Зображення
How do you know if a restaurant is cooking or heating up semi-finished products bought in a specialty store? You just need to find out if this restaurant has the delivery service. If so, this is not a real restaurant, but a fast food restaurant. And this "food" is terribly harmful, because they have heated the purchased semi-finished product once, and then you having received it you heat it again turning it into poison. Because the restaurant is not only dishes made only from fresh food, it is also the music of the decoration of the restaurant, sincere notes of friendliness of the staff, soft light over your table, the mood of your friendly company, good and memorable taste of drinks from the bartender and delicate flower design of the dish from the heart of a restaurant chef. With love, Your 7 tastes Links: Fastfood is killing you The effects of fastfood on your body You should never eat fast food українською

Post apocalyptic advertising

Here's how a Taiwanese noodle restaurant attracts visitors after the quarantine. I don’t know, it seems that the association here isn't with noodles, but with a stripper who is simply hungry. What associations do you have?

Noma (Denmark) works without reserves. The benefits of this video are the same as the open kitchen of the restaurant. When viewers see how so many cooks prepare food for them harmoniously and cheerfully.

We are in thought

Зображення
The quarantine continues and we continue to think and describe our new project. We have already described the equipment that we need for the first restaurant. There are already many solutions and finds for a new business we have. The main finds are the work options of the business during periods of events similar to this epidemic, and the possibility of small investors who isn't versed in the restaurant market to make money from this business. We also have a concept and menu for the first restaurant. Both the concept and the menu are completely ready. We still have no answers to almost fifty questions, but we'll get these answers by going to the place of founding a new business. So far we have no answer to one of the most important questions: ‘How do we need to calculate the audience and future profits during a pandemic?’... We don't have this answer yet. But we'll soon know it. There is the best part now. It is the first version of the new TM of our big business....
