I have read a few titles in regard to restauarnt management and start up to fine tune my restaurant management know how to better my odds at this cut throat industry. After going thorugh this book, it gave some really good insight, and more importantly knowing the numbers really helped provide substance for the strategy and management mantra from other reading. This is more like a textbook, so it is not for everyone, but for what the authors set out to achieve - Restaurant Finacial Basic it is pretty spot on.To improve, I will suggest some simple but intersting case study to supplement, this will really engage the reader and tied up the teaching in the book nicely.
