We're working with our client SuperSandwich.com to introduce soups on the menu. Fall favorites such as beef and barley, split pea with ham, vegan lentil and more will be available soon.
Finding the right equipment was key in this endeavor. Local supplier Globe Equipment Company and RATIONAL ovens are helping to bring this vision to life.
Congrats to our client on getting this new concept off the ground. The Grey Owl Bar & Grill in Rockland, Maine has a focus on "turf" in a land of "surf". Steaks, mouth-watering burgers and much more in a cozy, upscale atmosphere.

Independent restaurants can learn from chains. They are industry leaders for many reasons but, first and foremost, they plan for the future.
Regardless of size, every restaurateur should look at their business from a guest perspective and ask "what can I do to make the experience better?"
Technology is vital.

Current best practices for establishing and refining food industry HACCP plans
"A restaurant proffers unique HVAC challenges that set it apart from other commercial spaces."
1) Hire an experienced mechanical engineer with restaurant experience
2) Plan for one ton of HVAC per 150 square feet of space
3) Install Merv13 filters and UV-C lights

Selecting wines for your restaurant? A few practical considerations:
1) Do more than one tasting and experience the wine with food from your menu.
2) Know if the wines are readily available in a wine shop or liquor store? If so, be mindful of the perception your guests might have of this label.
3) Look for wines that taste more expensive (this is true for personal consumption as well)
Cheers!
What do you think? In a post-pandemic world, will diners want to see more of their meals being prepared in front of them to assure safety?
