The food service industry is experiencing a time of profound change. The supply chain is severly restrained by environmental limitations, and there is a clearly established link between health and nutrition.
Cost pressures will require new ideas to continue to deliver attractive, interesting menus at affordable prices.
Challenges with food security caused by a changing climate will require innovation to continue serving great products that are attractive but still affordable.

One of the most significant life experiences I came to during my years in business is the importance of matching operational know how, available talent, and given physical resources with the ambition of the concept.
There are certain things that don't work well in a very high volume environment. There are certain expectations a customer has in an experience dining environment that one must recognize and cater to, even if it is difficult.
But most importantly, the image projected in the brand must match the design, the ambiance, the service culture, and most importantly the product offered.
Hospitality is a holistic product, catering to customers with firmly held expectations and opinions.
At Food with Thought we align these factors and assist you in creating a great product!
