I spent almost 40 years in the restaurant business and this was exactly how most new restaurants get open. Well done Roe!!

Fair play, im just looking at all the staff and calculating the wages all the staff, head of service, managers, waitresses, all the chefs, its amazing how restaurants make money with that many staff on the gross margins and rent. Especially when your food is very reasonable priced for the top quality and for London its cheap

I've worked twice as an opening team and it's really hard. I'd rather do busy dinner service understaffed and with a broken dishwasher! Good luck guys!
@brandonkjamessr41095 ай бұрын
Man....I love being on the opening team. I've done it twice as well. On the next go round, trade me spots. You can have the dinner service, I'll take the opening.😁

Well at least the head chef didn't lock himself in the walk in and then unintentionally break up with his girlfriend while having a breakdown

i love to see stuff like this as someone who works in startups and deals with chaos a lot. It's wonderful to see how other industries deal with adversity. Wonderful job everyone. Fail fast has always been my way of working.

I love that you are documenting this journey. I've never worked in the hospitality industry myself, but I'm a keen amateur cook and I've worked at a good few startups so I recognise a lot of things in _your_ story. I hope a thousand young cooks all over the world see this and it inspires them to start their first pop-up and start on their own path.

Good job mates, I'm a head chef for a retirement home in my community yes, and I draw a great inspiration from your point of view videos, and your recipes. Congratulations on your restaurant, when I travel to London someday I'll definitely visit both. You guys have helped me tremendously in my career over the last year.

As someone with quite a few years FOH experience, brand new staff are great as well as being a nerve racking endeavour. You can teach them the good methods and back up their own skills, but it's how they handle the pressure and stress when things go a bit wrong. I used to work at a holiday park where live music weekends were a thing, and we would always throw the new guys onto the bar at peak times to see how they coped. Most were great, some needed extra help, a few crumbled, and very few walked off never to be seen again. We even had one not even turn up for their shift. There are no silly questions in hospitality, when starting out, if you don't know ask, if you're struggling, tell us. Don't try and be the hero by winging it or guessing, at the end of the day we're all a team and getting to the end of the night without injury, death or years of therapy is the aim. The biggest thing of course is enjoy it, have fun, have a laugh....just don't turn up smashed or high.

Yep crunch time on payroll by looks of the staff you have at least 20-30 staff, its very big brigade you need do at least 200-300 cover a night or clear at least 150k-200k a month to cover the rent, staff and other over heads.

Really cool to watch, hope full service is going great. I got really confused for a second at the end, fully thought he was talking about Paul because I wasn't listening and then I got more confused because I thought he meant Leto II... very silly

Going to the UK has always beena bucket list item for me , but seeing your resturants , especially thanks to @sortedfood ..the bucket list goal has now shifted to "visit fallow and row and fawn" ..though i think the cost of dinner will be as much as the plane ticket from the states. im gonna get a second job to save for this trip...i want it to be epic !
