Kitchen Scoop with Kat

This week’s episode we’re joined by Dennis O’Donnell who shares about his 25+ year career in restaurants. We talk about the importance of a server’s role in providing a pleasing customer experience and how absentee ownership can be detrimental to a business. Dennis also highlights the importance of having the right tech in your business, regularly updating your system and maintaining your hardware. He also shares about the various pinch points in a restaurant and what an owner can do to responsibly mitigate any foreseeable problems. In a world driven by data, we have to remember that people will always be at the heart of the restaurant business. We talk about getting back to basics, making sure you’re actively engaging with your customers and building a healthy culture amongst your staff to ensure the overall success of your business.
