Managing a bar and restaurant means having to deal with employee turnover rates that you simply just don't see in other industries. In fact, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the annual restaurant and bar employee turnover rate is a staggering 73 percent. That's a lot higher than the average turnover rate for all industries in the US, which stands between 12 and 15 percent annually.

Hotel catering menus are pretty standard. You have your choice of this breakfast or that. Lunch and dinner choose from chicken, beef or fish with salad and dessert. Bonni Scepkowski was never one to follow the standard rules of meeting. She never met a menu she couldn’t improve. As you know, food is more than ‘lunchtime’ — it’s an integral part of the experience and should be woven into the fabric of the program, reflecting your audience's demographics, culture and vibe of the program.

I got this not from former client on Christmas Day: Merry Christmas Bill! It’s been 5 years since getting sick and this time of year I’m reminded of how thankful I am for all the good people I met since then, including you and your team. Words truly can’t do justice to how I feel. I hope your Christmas was wonderful- you deserve it. Best gift ever. Thank you.

From full service to fast-casual to legacy fast-food brands, the one constant was disruption.

For businesses operating in the food industry, it’s critical that food products are created in a safe and hygienic environment. In the absence of proper hygiene and safety protocols, the entire food chain — from the farmer who grows the produce to the consumer who eats it — is compromised.
