Balancing the Books, Late Night with Scott Carruthers

What this episode covers

In this hilariously insightful episode of The Late Night Restaurant Podcast, Jay, Dom, and Beck welcome guest Scott Carruthers — a former chef turned restaurant bookkeeper and coach — who takes us on a wild ride from mustard-making in London, Ontario to modern-day financial strategy for hospitality businesses. Packed with gut-busting laughs, dad jokes, and real-talk on budgeting, waste, menu engineering, and the struggle of change in restaurants, this episode blends comedy with consulting gold. If you're in foodservice and not thinking about your break-even, you're already behind. Don’t miss this perfect mix of roasting chefs (lovingly), roasting mustard seeds (literally), and roasting financial chaos into clarity.
