👀 ABOUT THIS VIDEO
People ask me all the time whether having half a decade of experience is important when opening up a restaurant. Or if 2 years is enough. Or if no experience is ok.

The thing is...having experience is great. But even a decade worth of restaurant experience will not fully prepare you for what it is like to start a restaurant business. No experience is ever enough. There are just SO many things that may happen that it is impossible to see it all. Even myself with 10 years of being in business I am still learning something each day.

So 5 years of being a chef or 5 years working front of house would not have helped me dodge ALL the mistakes I made.

So if you are an aspiring restaurant owner who wants to open a restaurant with no experience or part of restaurant management, keep on watching to see my 6 takeaways.

Alot of people dont like taking advice from others not realizing how important and expensive knowledge is when it is being given to them for free at most times.

[foodbizztalk]

Great point, anyone who is a lover of cooking good quality food should at some point in their future open up a restaurant.

[aleksandarbubanja]

I'm still a kid but i love to cook and i think that opening a restaurant would be a dream come true

[voahangyr]

I do agree with everything you said BUT what really gives me anxiety as I'm building my pie shop with O experience in restaurant is more about the day to day operations: how much inventory do I need? How do I calculate how much I need to produce every day? How about waste management? How many employees should I hire? what are the best tools to develop systems that will help me run my restaurant? opening and closing checklists? etc...

This video was very helpful and I think you however it still doesn’t explain how we go about opening a restaurant for example
1. Do we need any certifications or license?
2. Inspections from the Board of Health I wish all that was explained more!
3. Dues and don’ts when owning a restaurant
Pretty much the step-by-step instructions on how to go about starting a restaurant business like the examples I said it certain license and certifications we need Do you mind making a video if you don’t mind explaining to us how to go about ty 😊

There is general business experience, and there is specific industry experience. After thirty plus years in business, I will be applying my general business knowledge to a new industry - a tea shop Café. Your advice is sound...I will be teaming up with a current or recent graduate of a local culinary school for the industry specific knowledge that is necessary for success. I will add that someone without ANY business experience at all must invest in good people with that experience, or else they will face failure long before they learn enough on their own to succeed.

I have been learning to cook, my Wife broke her leg last year and while she was recovering I was forced to cook, it was sink or swim, I did well and turned out cooking is something I'm good at, I started with Saturday breakfast for us, Eggs corned beef hash and grits, I began adding spices and my Wife loved it, then one day I made Shrimp fried rice, the family loves it, then I expanded into Italian foods, fish and pastas, my Wife today told me her and my Mother say I should take a Culinary class, even today I made a Veal Scallopini Parmesan with mushrooms and tomato sauce with Prosciutto, I just experimented, my Wife took a taste and her eyes widened with delight "That is delicious, If you're making creations like this now, I can only imagine what you'll be making when you take Culinary lessons"! Now there was an Italian Restaurant in my family on m Father's side, as far as I know it doesn't exist anymore, today I stared at that sign on our kitchen, a relic from that time and have decided when I trained one day I will Resurrect it from the Dead, mwah

I am thinking about a new type of restaurants: eating-spots
in eating-spots, food keeps changing, chefs also rotate
this is opposed to current restaurants,
thanks to this rotation of food and chefs, eating-spots are more powerful than restaurants,
along with that, there is an app,
people vote for the food that will be cooked in the next days
menu is influenced by the live input of the people via an app.

[TerrellWalker-jf]

These are great tips I can use to help me open my own restaurant one day

[cmngomezulu]

Thanks Wilson! Always super helpful 💓
I'm in the works of opening my fast food restaurant, planning to open early next year💃🏽

[LearnAndLiveWithRimzim]

Your videos are very informative.Thanks
A few questions 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Is opening a cafe similar to a restaurant? Is it less money, stress, need fewer staff members…
Do I have to be a certified chef to cook and lead in my cafe kitchen?
How do I figure out if the style of food I have in mind has interested customers around? Fusion Indian cafe is my dream.

[gifteugene-kalio]

I really enjoyed your step to step talk on this topic. I learnt alot

[ismaeljrmorales]

My wife and i have an annual income combined of 102k before taxes. We can save 30k in 6 months. We don't have any experience obviously since this will be a new field for us but we will gain as much knowledge as possible, hopefully find a genuine mentor! Im 24 and shes 23 so we just want to grow and prosper to be set !!! My first question, how much money do I need to start everything, I know it will vary based on what type of restaurant. Im thinking bar & grill or Mexican restaurant type of setting.

[ademerdogan]

Thank you so much for sharing some of your your knowledge!
