Before Opening A Restaurant: Watch This 8-Minute Menu Engineering Guide

[@narainsn1883]

It's been my dream to start a restaurant... Felt the entire episode as a masterclass. Thank you

[@praritmutneja3925]

Nothing so helpful about the podcast

[@mayankmishra5060]

True!! Hats off to Zorawar for being so calm and patience answering Nikhil's questions

[@ankushrana5839]

I became Zorawar's fan after watching the 3 hour long podcast with Nikhil. I'm grateful to you Nikhil for bringing him here 💯

[@saikeerthansayeesh8589]

Zorawar gives answers like how an AI does.

[@PrabhavKhandelwal]

😂

[@meetshivam]

Link this AI please

[@vipjoel1]

Indeed the average order value is much higher when people use digital menus. Makes so much sense why all these restaurants are getting rid of physical menus

[@dhirajbhat4021]

I always thought this was the obvious reason as opposed to "gen z wants it to be woke" or whatever

[@yadavfamily3447]

with corona, no one wants to touch physical menu

[@161aman9]

Eye-opener certainly, thank you Nikhil for inviting Zorawar to your show it's quite insightful

[@sanjay.1]

Great insights about resturant science and menu design. Absolutely loved it ❤

[@Irfank5464]

Riyaz’ body language and specially the way he speaks and laughs is full Sanjay Dutt in real

[@codemonk1999]

My take away - 1. Everyone has different style of menu designing 2. Smell can add value to your profit margin 3. You get monitored all the time (like a lab rat) 4. Use of AI to design and create menu in premium restaurants. (I don't understand why consumer should pay higher price for a free AI product, where you can have less qualified Chef prepare high quality food using AI recipe )

[@shubhendumahapatra1532]

Recipe can be by AI but the skill matters. In this way, me and Chef Sanjeev Kapoor can cook the same😂😂

[@codemonk1999]

@@shubhendumahapatra1532 - Why do you think you can't cook like him? Just practice the recipe with the quality of ingredients he uses for 30 days, you dish will be as good as his. you don't need to go to culinary school for years.

[@yadavfamily3447]

You dont need AI, its all on KZbin, I follow lot of cooking channels😂

[@ayurvednow2808]

Loved the way Zorawar explained the whole business in few minutes

[@sameermalik8338]

Hi Nikhil - enjoy your podcast. On the vegetarian %, something that you all missed was that even non veg eaters in India eat meat like twice a week. So 80%+ of meals in India are probably veg. This is the metric that matters.

[@crumbly.]

But they tend to buy non veg when buying from a restaurant. Iam a non vegetarian and buys non veg 9 out of 10 times

[@zgeorgem]

I am a Millenial and I HATE digital menus!

[@digitalbarik1447]

😂😂

[@kapilagrawal5777]

Another great video and a lot of valuable insights to the viewers not only to the aspiring restaurant owners but for every viewer in general. Great work. Please keep it up. In future can we see the podcast involving some successful share market investors sharing their journey and experiences (off course including you :) )

[@sangeethsk3955]

Thank you for the shorter clips. But it would be better if you could expand certain abbreviations they mention and could give a short description of what it means

[@srirampadmanabhan3648]

Great conversation. Never realised role of AI in restaurants

[@gaurav-fh4mi]

Excellent episode buddy. Looking fwd for more stuff like this. Thanks

[@rarunningcamera]

This is gold. But how did you get these guys to spill the beans.. Or these things are old hat and there is another set of things that really work?

[@HAL--gb6uf]

Its like common knowledge now

[@sudhirjonathan]

In a physical business like this you’re unlikely to go compete with them unless you search for their restaurants and go open one right next door. So no harm in sharing knowledge. You’ll open a restaurant in your cuisine of interest in your area, so they’re not in any danger of losing to you.

[@prasad1556]

Could you guys please set some context about speakers in description section rather than doing self promotion?

[@jagadishcdoralmedicineradi8932]

They menu would have only numerals in price . they dont write rupees in front of those numerals. a rupee or dollor sign makes it look expensive.

[@mayankmishra4886]

Very nicely explained. Waiting for more episodes Zorawar Nikhil can you do a rapid fire with him please? 😊

[@Mr.RonakAgrawal]

Do a pharma podcast

[@redloss3270]

Please introduce guests in video description

[@Skonthoujam7]

what's the name of the book mentioned in 2:00? please help

[@palabinash]

There should be a podcast on Cloud kitchen, like Rebel Foods & Kitchens@.

[@nhiptanhipta7366]

Please call him for session where he can give us some ideas about how to actually start a delivery business

[@amanjulka5590]

Damn how do you do it! Give us more lessons Zorawar

[@vikassrivastava8708]

4:29- The indian map showing non veg eaters has a state mentioned as INDIA (77.1) Am I seeing something wrong or there is another way of looking at this stat?

[@pcodes]

I'm a Gen Z and when I went to my first cafe with a friend they told us to scan a QR which was far from the order counter and they were using a site or something of that sort which needed to create an account and it was f*cking buggy. They kept on insisting on scanning it again and again. I got so pissed from the experience that I decided then whatever happens I'm not gonna come to this cafe ever and it was quite a popular one in the area.

[@arvindmv]

All Videos are great to watch but the last part of the video where you ask how we liked the video is the most boring part. As it does not match with the entire video content pitch and pace.

[@manojnayak-b9e]

how much ever u put low price items in end the consumer pockets will postmortem the entire menu wich suits his menu

[@adicus1110]

What is the book he's talking about @ 2:39 ?

[@deepeshsao1008]

Most likely a proprietary and not revealed.

[@yadavfamily3447]

it can be Grinding It Out: The Making of McDonald's by Ray Kroc

[@crazyshit1985]

Can you guys explain cdr qsr aov jargon that you speak

[@anrd_]

CDR= Casual Dining Restaurant, AOV= Average Order Value

[@Skonthoujam7]

QSR- Quick Service Restuarants

[@ChetanPatil-tp9on]

All this only works when one is not very concerned about how much he is spending.

[@MT-eu9uy]

Zorawar and Pooja are truly trying to be helpful but then there's Riaz Amlani gatekeeping information and HOW! twisted answers and lowkey half baked information (e.g menu design and using AI)

[@OgSuvi]

What is the name of the software he mentioned 8:11 thanks in advance

[@richajoshi]

Jarvis

[@commonman029]

Jarvis by Staqu 👍

[@neelneel4145]

Nikhil . I really enjoy your videos , mate but I can’t stay hooked on for 2 hours … maybe edit in two / three parts ?

[@pathanfayeezparvez]

I want physical menu

[@justvish]

Brahmins Coffee Bar and Vidyarthi Bhavan owners watching this video and going like.. Duh!!

[@anirudh425]

What special ?

[@HarshaVardhan-nv9is]

Nikhil is host, guests have more power in the equation. Guests will not want to share their trade secrets, Nikhil has to get something out of them to add value to the viewers. Viewers will get only what the guests share, mostly reluctantly. But actual value add never happens this way. This is never masterclass. It is only the top superficial 20% that is discussed by guests, Nikhil's team cannot go deeper than 20-25% because he doesn't habe domain expertise. Viewers spend X amount of time, but the quality or take aways are not equal to X amount of time's reading or research. My opinions completely, you can disagree.

[@mohanraut4399]

concentration has to be good food quality and taste...rest is all absolute waste.......people coming on skates...digital menu etc...

[@AkshayJain-202]

Hate digital menus !!

[@AP-eb8hd]

Nikhil gave some interesting look when the 50 year old aunty said...she is a millenial..😂

[@ParthRastogi]

quite evident these people don't know jack about running a restaurant. They only know the Business.

[@pahalrathor3379]

Gen Z and i hate digital menus

[@deepakjangir14]

Rajasthan has the most number of Vegetarians, correct your data.

[@alashwin]

Oh , Mr Corrector has come

[@sreenathgkris3967]

@ nikhil kamat- pls stop disagreeing with the speakers on trivial things. Quibbling over what % of ppl in haryana or punjab are non veggies. This is a waste of time and a distraction to the discussions.

[@deepakdalal4659]

Haryana has highest percentage of vegetarians.

[@mohitmalhotra4276]

When 3 people tries desperately to involve AI in their talks to look more appealing. Gpt and stuff like that is also used by kids for their homework (is it's really a big thing)

[@gotetyaditya5171]

the guy next to nikhil... something wring with him... is he drunk or !!!!

[@patrickprakash8]

Menu engineering? Seriously?

[@GTR-93]

AVERAGE INDIAN WILL GO IN ASCENDING ORDER

[@sarvagyaagarwal2823]

Calling it engineering is really stupid

[@lionizedlamb5178]

Riaz is full of himself !🤮

[@163amandeepjulka6]

This man is a machine 🫢🥹 Zorawar you're magic 🪄
