Tips for Better Food Service

The foundation for a high-quality restaurant is its food, so it is crucial that your kitchen staff has the skills and experience necessary to produce dishes of the quality to serve to your guests. But good food service doesn’t stop there. If you want rave reviews, your service staff also needs to be trained in the finer points of food service. Read on for Quik n’ Crispy’s tips for how to improve service at your restaurant.

Change Up Your Menu

chicken sandwich Your customers will likely get bored with your offerings if your menu never changes. Now, this is not to say that you should completely overhaul your menu every month; simply remove items that are not very popular with your guests and add new ones, keeping up with current dining trends. For example, if you notice that your customers are becoming increasingly health conscious, you may want to switch to using a greaseless fryer. Be sure to advertise to your customers that your “fried” items are now made without oil.

Offer Happy Hour Specials

Everyone loves to get a good deal, and offering specials during happy hour (the time when most people are just getting off work) can be a great way to add value for your customers. Two-for-one drink specials or discounted appetizers are some popular options. If happy hour guests enjoy your food and are satisfied with the level of service, they will be more likely to return during your regularly priced hours (and bring their friends).

Allow Ample Time for Server Training

An inexperienced server can make food service mistakes that may turn away your customers. Be sure to spend enough time training each new server, and have a testing system in place to evaluate their understanding of policies and procedures. Urge your servers to always keep the focus on the customers, no matter what.

How To Boost Bar Profits

You can boost your bar profits with a great food menu and a great fryer to prepare it. Having a good menu can keep your customers in the bar an average of 53 minutes longer. While most of the profit a bar sees is from its beer and liquor sales, offering a bar menu can increase your profits two ways. pairing wine with fried food

One way it’s profitable is simply keeping your patrons in the bar longer. The longer they are in the bar the more they will drink, which means more profit for you.

If the menu is done correctly, however, you can see quite a profit from the food sales as well. Foods that are typically fried like mozzarella sticks and chicken wings have a very large profit margin. These types of foods see an approximate 75% mark up from the wholesale cost to the menu.

The best part is you don’t have to purchase a full scale kitchen or hire a full kitchen staff to make these items. This is where the Quik n’ Crispy ventless fryer comes in. You can fry, grill and bake foods with one piece of equipment. You can also cook different types of food at the same time.

Incredible versatility isn’t the only plus to the Quik n’ Crispy. It also cooks food much faster than other methods, and as you well know time is money. It is easy to run, so you can easily train someone to run the fryer, and of course the labor costs are lower than with other methods as well.

Bars that have started using the Quik n’ Crispy have seen a 15,000 to 20,000 increase in their yearly profits. You can increase profits on food items up to 400% with the Quik n’ Crispy.

Gen Z Advocates for Healthy Eating

Greaseless Commercial Air Fryer | Pizza The days of consuming greasy fried foods are over for many Americans. Generation Z is leading the healthy eating revolution. Youngsters are focused on eating nutritious foods and cutting the grease and sugar out of their diets. They are even willing to pay more for these healthy foods because they know just how harmful grease is.

While many older Americans have altered their diets, they haven’t made as drastic of a leap as their grandchildren. Over 30,000 eaters were recently surveyed by Nielsen Global Health and Wellness. The results show that those under the age of 20 (Generation Z), are highly interested in healthy foods. A surprising 41% of this cohort responded that they would pay extra for foods that they perceived to be healthier. This is quite the contrast to the Baby Boomers (ages 50-mid 60s). Only 21% of Baby Boomers would shell out more money to consume healthier food. In the middle of the two cohorts are the Millennials (ages 21-34). The study shows that 32% of this cohort would make a financial sacrifice for a healthier food item.

QNC is happy to meet the dietary requirements of Generation Z and everyone else who wants to consume healthy foods. We’ve created a revolutionary commercial cooking appliance called the Quik n’ Crispy Greaseless Commercial AirFryer. It’s a hot air based counter top unit that prepares fried foods without all of the nasty and unhealthy grease. When foods are prepared with the Quik n’ Crispy Greaseless Commercial Air Fryer, their fat content is reduced by 20 to 40% compared to foods cooked in the traditional deep fat fryer. The best part is that the scrumptious taste is still there. This is the perfect portable air fryer for arenas, stadiums, amusement parks, civic center, museums and any other venue or attraction.

Frying Up a Delicious Menu
