Why This Book Exists

Most restaurants fail not because of bad food — but because of bad planning. Wrong location, underestimated costs, poor kitchen workflow, no menu profitability logic. After four decades of watching talented people lose money on preventable mistakes, Vikas Suri wrote the book he wished every restaurateur had read before opening day.

What's Inside

01 — The Idea

Validating your restaurant concept before spending a single rupee. Market research, gap analysis and competitive positioning.

02 — Planning & Feasibility

Location selection, lease negotiation, financial modelling and realistic cost mapping — the foundations most people skip.

03 — Kitchen & Operations

Designing a kitchen that works — workflow, equipment selection, vendor negotiation and commissioning. The operational backbone of any successful restaurant.

04 — Finance & Profitability

Menu engineering, cost of goods, staffing ratios, breakeven analysis and the numbers that actually matter to a restaurant's survival.

05 — Marketing & Launch

Building awareness before you open, creating a launch moment, and getting your first 100 loyal customers through the door.

06 — Growth & Scale

From one location to many — systems, SOPs, franchising considerations and when to expand versus when to consolidate.
