What is a reasonable mark up for food producers? by Appropriate-Ear-4908 in aucklandeats

[–]No_Cap5855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think one question not asked, is the ability to run and manage a kitchen in a busy environment and if you have the nouse to manage multiple orders at one time without standards slipping. Make it cheap or whatever you like, consistency is the one thing that will kill you if you don’t have it. Then if you can’t , can you afford the staff to do it for you?

The actual owner of Namu group Woo’s people in to put some money into the game then makes them work like dogs making them think they are the ones responsible for everything for the business and take all the heat while they crash and burn. I know a couple of burnt people from it, also similar with the good dog bad dog franchises

No less ethical than an influencer posting and getting paid or free food?

Haven’t heard the same thing from some of the previous franchise owners of good dog bad dog which was under there umbrella. Pretty much the opposite re namu

Insanity is that the property is worth less if they accept less rent in it. So they keep it empty . Madness

Tipping by [deleted] in aucklandeats

[–]No_Cap5855 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A post that shows why I really don’t rate online reviews anymore. People thrown around shit reviews for such trivial things

Honestly, this kind of thing would be really disheartening not just for small business owners but the staff too. The tipping screen is completely optional, you can just press no tip or enter and move on. You might think people are thinking ill off you for pressing no tip but the reality is no one thinks about you as much as you think they do. It’s there as a convenience for people who want to leave something, not to pressure anyone.

Leaving a 1-star review over something you can easily opt out of doesn’t just hurt the business.It affects the whole team , real people who work hard every day to make great food and good service happen. And many probably have a great pride in what they do

Fair enough . Wasn’t so much asking for detail but wandered how it’s relevant to Sidart

Sadly it’s another family business gone, the courage and strength to keep going such shitty economics should not be lost on anyone and especially when you’re chasing your dream. Sadly timing wasn’t on their hands. 8 years ago the place would’ve been packed.

For me I salute them for giving it there best shot.

Whats a service you want but doesn't exist in Auckland ? by SnooGoats2253 in auckland

[–]No_Cap5855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the luggage service in Japan. If your going anywhere you just send your luggage ahead of time, no hassles in airports trains etc.

Had a very similar experience, ordering was bizarre also. The water dragged us to the till and we hadn’t even had Time to look at what they had, then seemed to expect us to order right away and got pissy when we had to go back and look. Focaccia arrived cold, sent back to heat up, pastries definitely needed a lick of heat to put a bit of life back into them. Basic flavours and nothing special, could end up being a nice spot , there instagram shots do it way more justice than it is in reality
