Know your plate cost
Inventory & recipe costing
What does a plate of pilau really cost you?
Price the menu from the kitchen, not from the restaurant down the road.
Menu prices are often set by looking at competitors. When the price of beef or cooking oil jumps, margins quietly disappear and nobody notices until month end.
- Recipes with ingredient quantities, costed from your latest purchase prices.
- Margin per dish updated when prices change.
- Stock deducted as dishes sell, with variance reports.
- Purchase orders to suppliers.
