We believe that you will learn things about product, vendor “behind the scenes” things they may not want you to know and many ways to save money by picking the right product for the right situation.

These videos are produced for Restaurant Owners, Country Club Managers, Restaurant and Kitchen Managers, F&B Managers & Directors and of course the great young folks that are preparing for their new Hospitality careers.

There are many “How To” videos out there for understanding Food Cost. Denis will bring a different perspective. Of course, it is important to understand the fundamentals like the food cost formula, menu ingredient analysis, menu engineering etc. But we believe that product Food Cost can make you or break you. You may receive it right, you may store it right, you may rotate it right, you may prep it right, you may prepare and present it right. But none of that helps if you are not buying it right in the first place. We feel that we can help.
