food cost will make or break you in the restaurant biz .. my bosses in college used to fret about food cost all the time .. in fact, those were the only two words i ever heard them utter ..


Doesn't necessarily mean that it is usually more or significantly more than labor, just that it comes with a lot more in variables than labor.

you can control and budget labor much easier since it is a constant, for the most part .. food prices, as you know, fluctuate daily and from distributor order to order .. if it is a slow night, you can cut people for the night .. if the skirt steak you need for a dish cost you 1.27 more per dish than last time at $12.99 retail .. and it's steak night .. that's a different story ..
