How to Start Your Own Restaurant?

A restaurant, also called a bar or a pub, is a public establishment that serves and prepares food and beverages for patrons. Almost all modern restaurants provide both food and take-out services. The word ‘Restaurant’ is derived from ‘la table’, the French word for table. The word ‘restaurateurs’ is derived from ‘laniere’ which means wall. In many cases, a restaurant or pub consists of a kitchen and dining area with a number of tables and chairs in a public or private space.

Many restaurants are franchises and therefore have many employees, although in certain cases small local restaurants may only employ a chef who is responsible for the preparation and cooking of specific food items. Some restaurants are privately owned and therefore provide low wages and benefits to their employees, while other franchises are publicly owned and therefore offer high wages, competitive benefit packages, and benefits. Some restaurants also offer special menus which can be ordered on a per person basis. The majority of dining establishments have a preferred menu which they prepare themselves.

Fast food, Mexican, Italian, Greek, Thai, and Middle Eastern foods are popular among casual diners. For these casual diners a sit down casual dining establishment is usually a favorite for their simple yet pleasant taste and texture. Casual dining establishments are also often found in public areas such as bistros, malls, and parks. Sometimes these casual dining establishments are privately owned and operated.
