Starting a restaurant to get rich is dumb.
Starting a restaurant because you think your great grandmothers naan is superior is not dumb.
Neither is it dumb to start a restaurant because you love feeding people, or a bike shop because you love repairing bicycles, or <insert any other scenario>.
As long as you know what you’re getting into, it’s a perfectly honorable way to live your life and there are ways to make it work.
EDIT- at least there were ways to make it work during non pandemic times. I hope we will see an upswelling of these types of businesses in the wake of this, although you couldn’t pay me to take bets on a timeline.
- wozniacki 7y agoNot necessarily to get rich, but to be around for long enough to even offer your food to enough people that will appreciate the superior taste, nutrition and craft that went into all of your offerings. If you are having to seek alms just to pay the bills or resort to charity to even sustain yourself as a restaurant, there is something fundamentally wrong with the makeup of what you offer. Simply put, far too many people think they have what it takes to run a restaurant. Their abilities and resourcefulness cannot match their over sized egos.
