Spring isn’t the only thing that’s in the air—As winter retreats and the warmer weather saunters toward us, we’re excited to welcome the smell of freshly broasted® chicken and barbequed meat back into our kitchens and our noses!
And while Canadians have braved the sub-zero temperatures to enjoy a drink or share a meal with friends, food service owners know that spring’s higher temperatures come with more guests. Are you prepared to handle the rush?
Today, we’re sharing a few ways that you can prepare for an influx of guests in a safe and delicious manner!
STOP AND SMELL THE BROASTER®
Get ready to gear up for a great spring patio season! If you’re preparing to welcome guests back indoors or on your patio, here are a couple ways that you can impress your guests and navigate your restaurant’s peak season!
1. STOCK UP ON SUPPLIES.
Craft Beer Kegs? Check! Face masks? Check! Wood for your Southern Pride smoker? Check check!
Whether you’ve weathered the pandemic in stride or operated with a skeleton crew for take-out, you’ll want to greet the spring season with a refreshed inventory. So, as you plan to increase the capacity of your space, make sure to take stock of items that are necessary for success—this might include doubling down on sanitation supplies, menus, and even ordering more food so that you don’t run out of your famous brisket!
2. DEEP CLEAN YOUR SPACE!
Purging your kitchen, restaurant and bar of old inventory and giving them a good spring clean can help you put on a fresh face for your clients. In fact, because you’re heading into the busier season, taking the time to clean and wax your floors, replace area rugs, broken chairs, and cleaning out the fridges can help you and your staff get organized before you’re too busy!
3. PREPARE FOR HIGH-VOLUME COOKING WITH KENDALE!
