Nope. Still poke around in here on my own time 🙂 I’m an insurance adjuster right now. I still talk with people about foodservice and pizza a bit.

Lasagna/baked pasta is always a hit. Easy to portion, uses lots of what you already have in house. Tubular pasta shapes are popular these days: penne, ziti, mastaccoli, cavatappi. Easy to do stovetop cheese sauces, marainara, signature meatsauce, cream/cheese based “alfredo” type. Sausage...

I really like the leaner business model in your ‘newer’ marketplace. I am very interested and optimistic to see your results play out. You have a good reputation to pull from . . . and the buffet pressures gone could improve costs of goods nicely enough to leverage some encouraging...

Can’t keep a fat man down! As a respected member here often says . . . . keep the dough off the ceiling.

Over here where the toilet swirls the other way, we call it something else :lol: Look for arugula i the stores. A little bitter, a little peppery, a little pungent. Will be a great foil for the richness of the cream cheese. Put it on fresh when you cut the pie and let the heat from the pie wilt...

I’m a blue cheese sauce man. Not the runny dip stuff on pouches, but an assertive ditty with greek yougurt, blue cheese, a little mayonnaise, I’m sure that there are recipes out there somewhere. Sweet, salty, tangy goodness.

In a word . . . .commissary.

Daddio, You bring an incredibly useful concept to the forum. In my early days, I am sure I got jobbed by this problem. Learned my lesson, and now I obsess over YIELD of any given product. Chicken and pork raw products are infamous as well. Raw muscle meats are not all the same as there are all...

Anyone got a good price for producing a 20oz finished coke serving? Or an idea what the syrup cost is for a 20 or 32 oz finished serving? Checking on what it costs to serve.

Tiny footprints, so occupational costs are likely a good bit lower than we suspect.

Thing is, if he isn’t an employee, not a hired car, you have to demonstrate where you see your insurable interest. Contractors are generally required to insure themselves to indemnify their contractees. There is a double handful of different commercial auto coverages; so it might be worth...

business income coverage umbrella liability agree with the hired, non-owned vehicle liability If in a high crime area, that coverage could be valuable Ask about costs of Replacement value instead of Depriciated Value on property/physical losses I sent you far too much information and the names...

colgatem: The intent of the post I read can only be to hype/sell/promote Google Places and not “every opportunity”. I am listening to all marketing points of view because I’ve been learning a LOT new lately about marketing opportunities and trends. That said, when one trots out suspect...

The full line distributors should carry an 8" box . . . Sysco/USFoods type distributors I would think. Roma/Vistar I would be confident would have them.

Could very easily have been done in my last marketplace. It is a conservative estimate to say that 20% of households had no internet access. Further, in the last town I lived in, boradband access was difficult to obtain . . . I had to get a mifi device or sattelite to have ANY internet service...

HARD lesson to learn is that every manufacturer configures their containers differently . . . or often they do. The nominal measures have gacked me before, too. 8" standard corrugated pizza boxes over by the rest of the pizza boxes (@ our Rest Depot) is what we used. Even used for smaller orders...

Decidion: yeah . . . US health code provides that ONLY approved vendors be used. So . . . there’s that added liability in US shops as well should someone get ill or somthin.

We also had some pizzas on flatbreads. they were very popular . . . salad and a pita pie was a great light lunch. Came with up to 3 tops.

you may find the opaque ones cheaper by about 20% ofttimes. They don’t require ‘virgin’ plastic.

Is this a new county-wide sort of thing they dropped on everyone . . . . or do you have a specific process/handling procedure in place that they asked you to write up. A comprehensive HACCP plan for an entire operation covering every high risk food product and every process invilving each of...
