I will create a restaurant food cost recipe costing, and menu pricing spreadsheet
Recipe Costing, Business Systems Specialist
About this Gig
Most restaurants don't lose money on rent. They lose it one plate at a time, on dishes whose true food cost nobody has ever worked out.
I build a complete food cost system around YOUR menu that shows exactly what every dish costs, what it earns, and which items are quietly bleeding margin.
WHAT YOU GET
- Ingredient database with automatic unit-cost calculation
- Per-recipe costing: portion cost, food cost percentage, margin
- Batch and sub-recipe support so shared prep is costed once and flows everywhere
- Menu profitability dashboard with target alerts on every dish
- A live Excel or Google Sheets file never a locked PDF
- A short guide so your team can update it without me
WHY ME
I run food cost and procurement for a hospital and restaurant group ingredient databases of 300+ items, real kitchens, real numbers. This is built for your menu, your currency, your suppliers, not downloaded from a template pack.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Send your menu and ingredient prices (a photo of invoices is fine)
2. I share a structure preview within 24 hours, before building anything
3. I build the full system
4. You review, I revise
5. Handover with a guide your team can follow
