You are building your first menu and have no idea if your prices will actually make money. Or you are open, you are busy, and somehow there is nothing left at the end of the month. Either way: your menu numbers are one of the first places to look. This is the do it yourself option: our complete costing system, instant download, you run it.

Food cost is the silent killer of food businesses. A menu priced 10% wrong does not feel wrong day to day. It just quietly eats your profit while your sales look fine. We know because it happened to us. We costed our own restaurant's menu from day one, but nobody told us where food cost should sit for our concept. A seafood number and a burger number are not the same number. When we finally measured our menu against appropriate food cost targets for our concept, we found out how much money had been walking out the door on plates we thought were winners. Don't learn this lesson the way we did. It's the most expensive class in the industry.

All three are part of Menu Pricing & Profit: Harrison & Company's system for knowing what it costs, what to charge, and what you keep. Do it yourself. Work through it with us. Or hand it to us.
