    15.AN EYE ON THE FUTURE – ALWAYS LOOKING FORWARD

    The only constant is change and as restaurant owners and businesses we need to remain agile, adapt and change with the tides. Being pro-active, hands-on, engaged and personally vested in our endeavors will assist us with this undertaking and task.
    Trends are harder to pin down these days. What was the standard of excellence yesterday, soon becomes the minimum today! People will continue to go out and we all need to eat – that is one reality! How we address it or capitalize on it might be totally different, but there are rooms a plenty for many MORE!

    Fast-paced lives and convenience will continue to dictate our dining out habits and choices, as will price, selection , ambience, service, consistency and satisfaction.

    Luxury has become a necessity – even for restaurants and dining. IT IS AN EXPERIENCE!

    Restaurant trends and upcoming challenges that restaurant owners might face, include:

    Growth of fast, minimum service – saving time and money is paramount.
    Combination motel-restaurant chains Airport restaurants and open-kitchens
    Atmosphere and ambience-type restaurants will grow in popularity and more specialty and signature, even themed restaurants will dominate the landscape
    As to where these restaurants will still most probably be… areas of heavy traffic, near cities, but also in neighborhoods and suburbs.
    Shopping centers and downtown locations will still be very popular.
    Less and bigger chains will dominate
    More Pre-prepared, Portioned, Convenience Foods
    Customer-branded food-choices
    Healthier cooking methods
    Centralized pre-preparation of foods by chains and institutional food service is almost certain to grow.
    More use of dehydrated foods
    Special meals and preparations for combat conditions, high altitude and space travel.
    Frozen meals sold at supermarkets will be improved in quality and variety.
    Faster, Better Equipment (food cleaning, preparation, washing, sterilizing etc.)
    Automation and mechanically operated
    Mass and centralized purchasing
    Increased labor costs
    It will become and be the field of experts, where dreams are made reality by expertise and hard work!
