YOUR RESTAURANT HAS ITS OWN STORY

Growth that respects
what makes you, you.

Better decisions start with understanding your business. A neighbourhood café, a tasting-menu restaurant and a busy takeaway do not operate in the same way. MyChefLab gives you a structured way to explore your numbers while keeping your concept, your guests and your standards in view.

Whether you are reviewing prices, testing a new menu, planning a service or preparing your next stage of development, use the lab to make your assumptions visible, compare alternatives and decide what to test in the real world.

A MODEL THAT STARTS WITH YOUR CONCEPT

Different restaurants. Different decisions.

Select a concept to see how the starting assumptions change.

Your type of establishment

Bistro / casual dining

Explore contribution per cover, table capacity, food costs and the staffing needed for one seated service.

Keep in focus: Hospitality, consistency and an unhurried guest experience.

Nine editable starting models. Replace example assumptions with your own business data; the model does not predict demand or guest reactions.

EXPLORE THE COMPLETE TOOLKIT

A complete toolkit.
Four clear priorities.

Thirteen connected modules, organised around the way your restaurant develops.

UNDERSTAND YOUR BUSINESS

Start with your concept, your establishment and a clear view of the numbers.

01

Establishment workspace & portfolio

Give each business its own context.

Keep venue information, objectives, operating status, contact details and business data together. Switch between establishment files, search the portfolio and work with a separate set of assumptions and records for each venue.

  • Create and edit client / venue files.
  • Track objectives and engagement stages.
  • Keep menus, teams, stock, scenarios and actions associated with the right establishment.
  • Use a two-step confirmation before deleting a client / venue file.
02

Concept & DNA

Build decisions around your identity.

Record your positioning, target guests, guest promise, priorities and non-negotiables. Select an operating model and adapt its assumptions to the way your establishment actually works.

  • Nine restaurant and hospitality models, including a custom concept.
  • Define the unit and period you are measuring: covers, orders, transactions, visits, guests or event attendees.
  • Record capacity, expected table turns and channel fee assumptions.
  • Keep the standards you want to protect visible while exploring change.
03

Performance overview

See what drives your baseline.

Bring your expected activity, average spend and entered costs into a clear starting view. Use it to identify the assumptions worth investigating before you make an operational decision.

  • Estimated revenue and operating contribution.
  • Food and beverage cost, labour cost and allocated fixed costs.
  • Break-even activity and contribution margin.
  • A common baseline for the simulator and performance reviews.
