Answer 1

So you don't know how to cook at all and you want to open a restaurant and you're asking if you should learn?  It sounds like a REALLY bad idea I'm sorry.

Answer 2

dosent sound like a good idea to start a business you need to get your information from the area your opening the business in and get it from a better source

Answer 3

If you know how to cook good, you can open a restaurant at my house and not have to pay rent, only if I get to eat free food though. Lol!

Answer 4

if you know how to make the food, you do not need cooking school. I'll suggest get help from a business advisor that can help you with your restaurant option here are the links:

Answer 5

Santa Barbara City College has a program that teaches both cooking and restaurant management.  I don't know if a similar program is available elsewhere, but that type of program would be the least expensive and most appropriate for what you want to do.

The restaurant business very risky. It probably has the highest failure rate of any start up although if successful it can be very profitable.

The start up costs would depend on the size, type and location for your endeavor. This is something you would learn about in school.

Good Luck :-)

Answer 6

Cooking school would be best before opening up a business, but if you don't want to, I'd have people taste test your food and hold a vote on it.  And if you want to open up a restaurant, I would DEFINITELY go to business school  to get customers. Business school would probably answer all your other questions, too.

Answer 7

bad idea, just work for a well known cheff and make some money
