You're misconstruing my argument. I am not saying just because they have more patrons or net more gross profit that RL and OG are better than your XYZ local chain (food wise...business skills wise I think its clear who the winner is). I am saying that they must be GOOD ENOUGH for thousands of people to continue eating there. It's not "shite" like some of you insinuate it is.

Two ways to look at a problem...

ReRe1 and ReRe2 are having difficulty and are breaking sauces....

Business man says let's dumb it down so we don't have to micromanage and hover over the kitchen, buys prepackaged sauces from Sysco and calls it a victory.

Food man says let's teach the ReRe's how not to break sauces and if they don't, fire them and pay someone more who can pull it off.


Business man thinks his P&L looks great, but Food man has paid more for labor but his food cost goes down, and since food cost is always more than labor, he's actually the real winner and so is his food and the customers.


That's the difference in between the two mindsets. What might look good on paper isn't always the real savings and doesn't cause people to want to pack the place either.
