A book to help you decide whether to buy more restaurant books!

The book is only about 180 pages of text (when you exclude the appendices, etc.), but it's to-the-point and hits all the essentials. This is a very nice little book to read when you are first contemplating opening a restaurant, then, if you're not discouraged, you'll likely go on to purchase other restaurant books that are 500-1000 pages long instead. But those longer books will have roughly the same chapters, just more details. Don't be too put off either by it's being first published many years ago, it's not as though this business has fundamentally changed since then. If you can buy it for just a few bucks (try to get it used), and you're not sure yet whether you want to take the plunge, then it is a great value and a quick fun read.

VERY beginning must read

This book was great, in my opinion, because i have NO clue.I'm sure for anyone w/ more business operation knowledge it lends less assistance.I was glad to find a extreme basic book that gets me up to speed and lets me know the basics before i move into the next and intermediate level reading on this topic.It's cheap - and it presents information that COULD change your mind or confirm your ideas ... good investment :)

Authoritative and complete; A must read!

From myths to realities; This authoritative book covers all the planning, organizing, and operating procedures which are necessary and crucial to a successful restaurant venture.While many people desire to build the restaurant of their dreams, there are important issues that need to be considered if success is to be achieved. Too often sheer determination is not enough. This business relies on too many individuals for one person,(you), to see things right. This book provides the insight and information necessary to provoke serious thinking regarding whether or not to actually pursue the dream of restaurant ownership.This book contains several anecdotes of real life situations as well as charts, explanations of record keeping, and financial statements. My favorite parts involve the exhaustive lists of what one should seriously analyze, research, and consider before beginning the venture process.However, heed this caution; This book may in fact dissuade you from ever opening your own restaurant. But if you decide to go ahead with your dream, this book is just what you need to help prepare you for the realities of this time engrossing, yet rewarding business.
