Answer 4

No matter what kind of business you want to start - you will always need a detailed written business plan.

It all becomes clearer when you have to write it down in black and white. Plus you'll need a good business plan to convince banks to lend you capital.

In the hospitality sector, you basically give up ever having a single holiday day ever again.

Answer 5

if you don't know, than you are in no position when it comes to opening a restaurant

Answer 6

Work for a year in another restaurant and learn the laws and procedures of safely handling food and complying with employment and tax laws.

Maybe make that 2 years.

Answer 7

Might consider consulting with a food inspector / building inspector for financial considerations needed to bring a facility up to par. This is an awsome American dream I fully support but I have seen many businesses go under because of financial difficulties once outside factors influence how much business can be done thanks to their lack of foundation.
