A typical programme moves through: menu direction; plateware selection; presentation and tasting; food photography coordination where needed; standard recipe development; ingredient selection; kitchen section allocation; individual chef training by section; and cooking trials before launch. Modules can be delivered together or separately.
Menu strategy
We align concept, target guest, price positioning, cuisine direction, kitchen capability, ingredient availability, preparation complexity, speed of service, menu size, dietary requirements, signature dishes, and overall menu balance — so the card matches what the kitchen can produce consistently.
Recipe standardisation and costing
Standard recipes can include ingredient quantities, method, yield, portion size, plate presentation, ingredient price, cost per portion, selling-price considerations, allergen notes, storage guidance where appropriate, and version control so the recipe does not drift after launch.
COGS and cost-control training
Teams learn why portions matter, how to read contribution, how waste and staff meals affect results, and how purchasing decisions show up in the plate. Training is practical — built for cooks and supervisors, not only for the finance folder.
Kitchen and service training
Section organisation, station readiness, pass discipline, service handover, and FOH alignment can be included so food quality survives real volume. Recruitment assistance can support gaps when the roster cannot deliver the menu as written.
Post-launch accompaniment
After opening or menu refresh, optional follow-up helps lock standards, adjust recipes that underperform, and retrain where turnover creates drift. Scope is defined per engagement.
