Kitchen equipment includes the kitchen three big and small items: electrical appliances (mainly refrigerators), stoves, loading dock. The senior chef recommended places to buy: Hangzhou ceramic goods market, Qiu Tao Road, the professional store.
Small items mainly refers to small hardware: stainless steel bowls and pots, cutting boards, spatulas and so on. Purchase in the ceramics market, professional store
Customer dishes: to the ceramics market and professional store can go. If the positioning of the restaurant is high, and the characteristics of the restaurant, you can customize and characteristics of the matching chopsticks. If it is a stall type of small restaurant, in order to try to save the initial investment, some people will buy second-hand goods. Some big hotels often replace their chopsticks, and when these replaced chopsticks are taken to some small restaurants, the goods still look good. Some shopkeepers will contact these hotels in advance, as long as the price is very low, you can buy.
Those who have not been in the restaurant business are usually guided in equipment purchases by the head chef after finding him. This is very important because there is a lot of kitchen equipment on the market, and there are some kitchen equipment that looks useful, but in reality is not much use, and the experienced head chef understands best what equipment should be used.
Additionally there is a point of attention, some stores, in the building of the kitchen equipment package, such equipment is not in accordance with the restaurant you want to open to the design of the equipment, rent down, often pay a lot of money for nothing.
Sub-let over the restaurant, sometimes you can save this acquisition process, but in many cases, really run up, will find some equipment can not be used, so also to ask the professionals to look at before you can decide. Otherwise, the only way to get rid of the old equipment is to pay a large sublease fee for nothing.
If you want to save more money on the purchase of the three major components, one way is to go to Hangzhou Shaoxing Road, thrift market, depending on luck, sometimes there are complete sets of kitchen equipment, some of which are inventory, and some of which are second-hand goods. Another way is to directly find the kitchen equipment manufacturers, there are many kitchen equipment manufacturers in the sale of new goods at the same time, but also recycling some of the hotel's old equipment, through them to buy these second-hand goods, than to buy brand new equipment to save two-thirds of the money.
Sixth step: procurement of raw materials
Small store opened out, procurement of this ring is the owner of the firmest grip, in many small restaurants, the owner of the part-time buyer, cashier, but also managed to secure the money out of one into the other. Even if you can't do it yourself, you need to find a close friend to do both jobs.
Drinks and spices:
Method 1: Go to the food market or supermarket and buy them yourself. There is more freedom of choice, as cash and carry can sometimes pick up some cheaper prices.
Method 2: Let a professional company contract directly, this practice is the most common. A company is contracted to supply all the drinks and condiments and is responsible for delivering them at all times. Bosses look at this way one of the main reasons is to be able to hang accounts, the general industry practice is to supply one to two months after the settlement of accounts. Professional companies also have a certain amount of sales rebates, depending on the volume of sales. If you add the sales rebate, the purchase cost will not be more expensive than going to the market and supermarkets. The percentage of rebate is as low as 5% of sales and as high as 12%, which depends on you to negotiate with the supplier. Some restaurants do not accept the rebate, but to the supplier to enter the fee, some people in the industry believe that this practice has more drawbacks, the interests of the supplier and the restaurant can not be bundled together, cooperation will not be as close as the rebate sales.
Waiters are happy to accept deliveries from specialized companies because they can get corkage fees, which the industry and commerce department says are commercial bribery. A small restaurant with four or five salespeople can receive $700 to $800 a month in corkage fees for a single waiter if business is good. Some big restaurants waiters can not collect their own corkage fee, but in such small restaurants, the boss will be the corkage fee directly to the waiter to receive their own, the purpose is to incentivize the waiter's enthusiasm for work.
Dish ingredients:
Frozen shrimp, fish and other aquatic products, if you want to choose good quality aquatic products, you can go to large supermarkets, such as Metro, good and more. Most of the fresh aquatic products purchased go to the near river agricultural and sideline products market and agricultural capital aquatic products market. For small stores, the daily consumption of vegetables is not large, the owner will go directly to the nearest farmers' market to buy goods. Time to do a long time, the stallholder is relatively fixed, you can let the supplier delivery. Some store owners figure and fixed stall owners to do business, home delivery, you can hang the account. But the owners had better often go to the market in person, one is to replenish the goods, and the other is also to see the market for new raw materials, to understand the price.
Applicable to the stall type of small restaurant purchasing tips: in the market when the market to purchase, you can use a very cheap price to take some of the dishes, to go back to the organization of some of the still a bunch of good raw materials.
Raw materials procurement is good, whether the price is cheap, the operation of a restaurant is very critical. With professional knowledge is very important, some bosses do not understand the difference between good and bad raw materials at the beginning, with a chef as an assistant is very necessary. Especially in seafood procurement, experience is very important. For example, the same Kiwi shrimp, different people to buy, the price per kilogram may be a difference of one to twenty dollars. People in the business can see that these shrimp can be bought back to keep a few days. Many restaurants purchasing veterans purchasing seafood, will buy a small portion of the seafood near the end of life, because the price of such seafood than the normal price of two thirds or even more. Buy back as a promotional item, sold to customers at a very cheap price, the results are often happy, which is also a business know-how.
Hangzhou's various flavors and characteristics of the hotel is actually a lot, how to do authentic? We all began to open the competition in the raw materials, not only to see whose practice is authentic, more critical is to see whether the raw materials are authentic. Do a good job store, most of the raw materials directly from the local purchase, which is especially common in some restaurants specializing in flavors from all over Zhejiang, not only because of the convenience of transportation, but also, so that the cost of procurement than in Hangzhou procurement is also cheaper! The daily amount of raw materials is not very small restaurants may refer to the following a boss's practice.
In the Yingshanhong Zhejiang West flavor restaurant, Li boss this calculation: In addition to some ginger, pork, common spices from Hangzhou procurement, the store's raw materials from the radish, lettuce, cabbage, green onions, garlic, spinach, bok choy, woolly taro and other common vegetables are purchased from the local rural areas. These vegetables are grown with soil fertilizer and have a strong native flavor, and their quality can be guaranteed. Directly from the farmers to buy at least nearly one-third cheaper than in Hangzhou. For example, green vegetables, these days the purchase price is 1 yuan per kilogram to 1.2 yuan, Hangzhou market at least 2 yuan or more. Lettuce 1.4 to 1.6 yuan per kilogram, Hangzhou food court now sells 2.4 yuan per kilogram. Store to do the wild vegetables are also purchased from farmers, and the purchase price of these vegetables is cheaper, fern 1 yuan per kilogram, lichen 1 yuan per kilogram, if purchased in Hangzhou, fern at least 2 yuan more, lichen 3 yuan 1 kg. According to Mr. Li, these vegetables are sent from home once every two days, by the 7:40 a.m. bus to Hangzhou to piggyback over, usually two big woven bags at a time, a bag to pay 10 yuan of transportation costs, there is a person specifically responsible for purchasing. Even with the cost of transportation and the salary of the buyer, the cost of raw material procurement can save more than 3,000 yuan per month. The store sells Longyou specialties A four cakes, also made by parents at home, so the cost is relatively low, a cake can earn an average of 3.5 yuan, an average of 3,500 a month can be sold, half of which is sold out.
