Planning to open a Salad only resturant. Do you think it would last?

Question

I would serve ceasar salad/Cobb salad/Wedge/regular/garden/ and so on and so on.

Answer 1

Yes, especially for the lunch crowd of women.  I would cater to women.  Men consider salad an appetizer.  Get the best lemons, and instruct your prep people to discard any flimsy quarter.  Make sure all preps wear gloves they discard whenever they come in contact with possible bacteria.  Don't use iceberg, use romaine.  Everybody knows iceberg contains no nutritional value whatsoever.  Serve spinach with boiled egg, otherwise the iron is not absorbed. Serve garlic toasted croutons.

Answer 2

I live in a little town and we have a salad creations, which is just salad its seems to be doing ok but a lot of people don't go cause it cost like 8 or 9 dollars for a salad and well you can make that at home for like 4, so if your prices are reasonable then sure.

Answer 3

They've been around for years in major cities.

The popular one here is "Salad Works"

It used to be called "Salad Tossers." I KID YOU NOT! I wish I kept napkins or bags or something.

Answer 4

if you have chinese ginger salad I will be there everyday!

Answer 5

There's an incredible all you can eat salad restaurant in the west mainly called 'sweet tomatoes'...it's great and making it so I say why not.

Answer 6

maybe. But you'd have to be pretty creative and come up with LOTS of choices.

Answer 7

I would defiantly check your surroundings and market. Also check out how much it would cost u on a daily bases for run and up keep and workers for the place to. Then you can do a budget analysis and see if it is a great opportunity for you, remember anything is possible!

Answer 8

Maybe if you're in a large city, but I would think you might need something else such as a small sandwich or soup menu as well, with salads being the highlight

Answer 9

I like the idea. You could maybe have soup in the winter and nice breads.

Answer 10

I would say if you are in a big city, then maybe. The problem is that there are soo many salads out there. You would have to have every ingredient for each salad, and that gets costly. I work as a waitress in a small town, and you don't make a big profit off of salads. Say if you have a chef's salad, you need turkey, ham, cheese, egg plus the salad greens, but you could sell a ham sandwich and make more of a profit. Bread is cheaper than lettuce and tomato. It's a good time of the year for vegetables now, but what about the winter?

If I could open a restaurant, it would be a sandwich/small diner cafe deal.

I just hope you really think it over. But like I said, vegetables are a good price now and the summer months people eat more salads. So now is the time to do it! Good luck!

Answer 11

of course it would... look at places like "soup plantation"
