i run a restaurant too.com

the first in a series.  i will go through all the steps involved in opening a restaurant.  today we cover the start of your plan - the fun bit. this is where you get to bash the idea into shape.  what will be your governing factor? this will determine all the other parts of the plan.  i only want to open a place where i have a high level of expertise in the core technical areas.  this means replicating what we do now, but in another location. you could, however, use your local knowledge to open a place in your home town based on what you know of the existing food needs there.
