time to start....
Here I sit on the rooftop and ponder about where I am heading what I want to be. There is no epiphany, no blinding white light and no Beethoven symphony playing in the background, Just the sea breeze and a cup of black coffee sufficient to stimulate my mind and I am thinking of making a plan ….. eh a business plan to be precise. I want to be a restaurateurs…. This moment was, and is a compilation of time, experiences, luck, money Love and frustration.
So what does it take to start a restaurant, I have tried to start one before and failed and than tried again as a consultant for a friend and was a success. So let me try to jot down some of the important steps for my reference as well as for all those who have similar interests.
----Come up with a great Idea
----Write a business Plan
----Look for the perfect Place
----Beg for Money
----Pay too Much for an architect designers and lawyers
----Get really frustrated
----Get really concentrated on the details
----Build-out purveyor negotiating and employee hiring
----Get really frustrated yet again
----Open
Yes you are right there are many more steps which needed to be discussed in between also and most prominent of all frustrated couple of more times I guess. I will continue in this blog some of my experiences
Also I would like to get some response from all of you about your views, which will help me to start my own setup once again……..
au revoir
