For sure, having the hood system/ansul saves me thousands as does the walk-in coolers and grease trap. Just out of curiosity could I ask what the 2 restaurants you started up cost? |

Haha they are! The restaurant itself is very clean, although dated. I'm hoping my product speaks for itself because not much money has been budgeted for renovations. Dumpster pad fence, minor landscaping, and a good power wash of the building is all I am going to probably do before open. Everything else is for FFE, legal fees, labor, and small cash on hand fund

Need all the Brethren to send you license plates from all over. Can't have a BBQ place without plates! Just kidding. Good luck on your new path!

I think the building looks super. And as far as the restrooms? Nobody goes to a smokehouse for the fancy restrooms. Clean and bright are where it's at - especially clean.
The building is fine - let the cooking do the talking.

Best of luck!!!!! As far as the bathrooms goes. Keep them clean as said before and they will be fine. Take pride in every area of your restaurant including the bathrooms. Clean restaurants do better most the time assuming good food/service.
Hope everything goes well. I know this is a ton of work and love to be putting into one space. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Wishing you the best of luck!
That premises really has potential. Solid floors, wash area, walk-in fridges, front counter, canopy for the cookers etc is a really big deal. Had a look at those pits. Smart move for a new restaurant. You don't want to be screwing around with pits that might give you a variable result... especially if you're not the Pitmaster all the time. Suggest you have a look at a few BBQ related shows of "Restaurant Impossible" to get some ideas for decoration on a budget. Honestly, what you are doing takes guts. Hope you can keep posting. Once you get busy, you might not have the time. Cheers!

Wow! Following this for sure.
Wishing you the best of luck and success with this venture. If we are up that way in the trailer after you open, I'll make sure we take a side trip to say howdy and sample the excellent Q. |
