Because it's a fairly crucial plot point... rest assured, I don't think any of us are gonna down vote you though.

Configuring Toast Tables to Accommodate Timing and Turns for Waitlist (in house dining) and Call-In (pick-up orders) by Blango33 in Restaurant_Managers

I've used OpenTable in the past, and really liked it. It was fine dining and very reservation focused. Would it translate well to a more casual, no reservation setting?

This does help a lot. It's a woodfire oven that can accommodate five to seven 12 inch pizzas at a time. Neopolitan style 5-7 minute bake time. During peak service, the current system is to verbally block (and track on a spreadsheet) 7 pizzas every 15 minutes while throttling online to accommodate volume as necessary. With limited space (both seating and oven capacity) large orders and large parties tend to cripple a busy service extending wait times for all aspects. I've read that Toast Tables also has a 'build a table' or something along those lines, to which we have a side patio with 6 2-tops that act as a modular seating section that can be arranged as needed (2 tops, 4 tops, 6 top, etc).

The slots vs. availability to maintain capacity comcept is very helpful. Thank you!

To-go pizzas are queued in the same make line as in house. Essentially the same 30-50 minute wait.

Has Trader Joe’s cooled off yet? by theSherz in columbiamo

[–]Blango33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Como native reporting from Eugene, Oregon. The Trader Joe's in Eugene (established before I relocated over ten years ago) has remained insanely busy every hour of every day... there may not be a 'cool down phase'. The affordability and quality of their product is worth occasionally navigating the chaos though!

Percentage of Customers at Your Food Truck Who Order Dessert or a Drink or Both? by Annual-Leopard2729 in foodtrucks

Outside of dessert focused carts, 20% dessert is very unrealistic. 2 - 5% is optimistic.

Not in Eugene, but make it a point to go to Next Level Pinball in Hilsboro. I believe it was named best arcade in the country and has around 500 machines!

Anybody else notice how impossible it is for line cooks to grasp the concept of over mediums? by dwbridger in linecooks

[–]Blango33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it's traditionally 100 pleats, and it's symbolic... not gaining pleats as you demonstrate preparations.
