This book is okay as an introduction, but overall it’s pretty light. This is probably a case of “you get what you pay for.” Save the $10 and put it towards one of the more comprehensive guideson this topic.

Rating: 5 / 5
I have been researching the restaurant business in hopes of starting my own place soon. I picked this book up from the local store last week. The information was easy to read and very informative. It provides helpful tips that other restaurant books don’t have–it’s a reality check, of sorts, albeit an encouraging one.
This book proves that you don’t have to be a celebrity chef to start and run your own successful restaurant.

I bought this book at Barnes and Noble and must say that I liked the layout and that it is easy to read. It has a lot of information in it, although I would have liked to have more referrals to other sources of information as well. This book gives you a great bit of motivation to finally stop thinking about an own business but doing it. I would recommend it to everyone who hasn’t yet decided if or if not. Other than that it is not meant to be your guideline to opening your own restaurant since it doesn’t give you enough information.
Pros: Easy to read, gives motivation, examples to determine costs, tips and hints to help you out, very well structured.
Cons: Doesn’t give enough information on each chapter, doesn’t refer enough to other information sources.
It still has been nice to read this book and very interesting.
