A fine dining restaurant is one that offers its patrons the finest food,
quality service and atmosphere. It is also the most expensive restaurant and
menu should offer unique items, the service should be beyond doubt
impeccable and the atmosphere should be inviting.
Today fine dining can be in any type of setting and provide feature a wide
variety of cuisine. Standards you should always include in fine dining are fine
china, glassware and flatware (absolutely no paper, plastic, or Styrofoam).
While tablecloths are hard to escape in fine dining, the rest of the
atmosphere is up to your creativity.
We can take the traditional route, with silver candelabras and Rose
centerpieces, or go for hip and trendy with a bold color scheme and modern
furnishings. Music playing subtly in the background should reflect your
theme, such as classical for a traditional fine dining restaurant or jazz tunes
for something modern. Lighting should also be subtle, leaning toward dim
but romantic.
Political factors:
Political factors deal with the degree to which the government influences and
controls businesses. For a restaurant, the most important factors will be
health regulations relating to food preparation. A restaurant will be affected
by factors that affect other businesses as well, such as tax rates and labor
laws. Following are the main political factors and structure that might affect
our restaurant business in Geneva

The election of the City Council is held every four years. In 2010
Geneva City Council was made up of two representatives of the Social
Democratic Party, one of whom is the mayor one member of the Free
Democratic Party, one member of the Green Party.
The city is divided into eight quarters, or districts, sometimes
composed of several neighborhoods.
Economic factors:
The interest rate at 15% p.a in Geneva would definitely affect our fine
dine restaurant & it would impact the cost of capital, the rate of interest in
Geneva(15% p.a)that are being directly proportionate to the cost of
capital.
Rate of inflation in Geneva was recorded at 0.10% in 2013 that
determines the rate of remuneration of employees and directly affects the
price of the restaurant's products. Again, the proportion between the
inflation rate and wages/prices is direct.
Economic trends act as an indicator of the sustenance and profitability of
your business in the Geneva region and help us in deciding our marketing
strategy.
Social factors:

many other types of cuisines. This shows in low brand loyalty from
customers. The switching costs are relatively low. Because there is so much
competition, customers could easily choose from many different restaurants
where to eat and spend evening in fine dine or Italian restaurant.
Degree of Rivalry among Existing Firms: HIGH - This restaurant industry
is as attractive in Geneva and that there are many restaurants going out of
profit because there are many new restaurants opening in Switzerland and
Geneva as well. Due to high availability of restaurant in Geneva with
different cuisine and explored culture, French and Swiss people who possess
high purchasing power believe in high quality service and food.
Bargaining Power of Suppliers: MEDIUM
Since there are so many restaurants in Geneva. Suppliers can offer their
products to all of them. If one doesn't want them, they know that the
restaurant next door will take it. Thus, suppliers have to give customer
quality service and different, innovative, qualitative food or follow the market
Trends. Either gives extra ordinary service that can be memorable for
customer in Geneva.
Bargaining Power of Buyers: HIGH
Even though food in fine dine could be prepared in different ways, it is a
uniform and unique product. As I described above that the switching costs
for per customers is relatively low and people prefer high quality food and
service. For surviving in this industry we have to maintain high quality of
service and hygienic food with Swiss standards.
Substitute Products HIGH
As I described before, customer have number of other options where to dine
and spend their evening. There are so many restaurants offering so many

different things in Geneva with many explored culture like Chinese, Indian,
Italian etc.

food. Moreover entertainment as well play vital role in success of fine dines

Whereas dinner timings will be from 17:00 hrs.
23:00 hrs.
During lunch and dinner we will be having fine dining service.
Entertainment
An entertainment for a restaurant is a carefully planned and easy to
use program which helps the restaurants to differentiate themselves,
enhance their customer experience and ultimately drive sales. The right kind
of entertainment is the key ingredient in providing the complete dining
experience. Many restaurants make a common mistake in playing their own
preference of music instead of taking into consideration what their
customers wants to hear.
10 | P a g e
We will have a music machine kind of a juke box which will consist of
some slow international music from which guests can select their preference
and play it.
On weekends i.e. Saturday and Sunday we will keep live performance of
piano and violin during dinner time for guest entertainment.
There will be a game section dedicated for kids entertainment like a video
game machine and a small play area for the kids of age group of 2-4 yrs. and
a specially trained staff will be there to look after them.
Special Features
Special features are the unique characteristics that a restaurant has
which distinguishes itself from its competitors.
We will provide the guest with the welcome drink which will be a fruit juice.
After the welcome drink we will provide the guest with the Amuse Bouche
as a complimentary.
Our restaurant will feature a cozy dining room and an elegant lounge.
Comfortable furnishings and decor with soothing warm tones. The lounge has
comfy couches and antique love seats with a softly lit bar. It will be the
perfect place to stop in for a bite to eat, for a drink or for a small business
meeting.
For extra comfort and to please a large group of people we will make up
special hors d' oeuvre platters for customers.
Service
We have chosen American service for lunch and dinner, as it will be a
la carte menu. The captain will take orders from the guest then they will give
it to the waiter who will fire the order in the kitchen and the order will be
brought by the waiters directly from the kitchen to the table, as it will be pre
plated. The plates will be served from right side only and waiters will also do
the clearance. It will be a relaxing service.
11 | P a g e
If the waiter or the captain found that the starter is going to finish soon then
the waiter will fire the main-course so that the main-course will be served hot
& quick.
After the main-course is finished first the table will be cleaned and then only
the dessert will be served if the guest has ordered.
We will have 5 waiters, 1 Assistant Restaurant Manager (Captain) and 1
Restaurant Manager. Captain will take care of the customers and the
Restaurant Manager will handle the whole Restaurant.
Before hiring new employee he/she will have to give trail for 1 day and
if his/her will satisfy the manager and guest then only he/she will be hired.
After hiring proper training will be given to the new employee at least for 2
weeks.
Customer service in our restaurant will be much more attentive than in
casual dining establishments. Our service goes far beyond taking an order
and delivering food. Our fine dining services include:
All of the details that are expected of a fine dining server require that
our staff be rigorously trained. They should be able to answer any and all
questions customers may have about a menu or item or wine. They should
also be ready to make menu recommendations, if asked.
The service will be relaxed, very friendly and correct. We will hire the
best people available, training, motivating and encouraging them, and
thereby retaining the friendliest most efficient staff possible.
Cashiering
In our restaurant we will be using One Stop POS Software. This
software is one of the most advanced systems available in the POS market.
This system is also unique because it is designed to offer completely mobile
12 | P a g e
POS capabilities, allowing our staff to both take and enter orders right at the
table, rather than them having to go to another terminal to enter them. This
makes for better customer service through more accurate and faster
ordering. One Stop POS Software also offers free training and installation
with their hardware and software, is easy to use, and will help us manage all
aspects of your business.
One terminal will be located in the kitchen department whereas the
other one will be located in the cashiering counter for the guest billing.
Once the order is placed from the waiter in the tab provided them with the
mobile pos software there will be 2 kot slips printed one will be printed in the
kitchen terminal the other one in the cashiering terminal.
Menu
When it comes to taste, we have something for everyone. A quick
snack or a gourmet meal? A vast choice of cocktails are served and an la
carte menu which features cuisine from around the world. Our menu design
will reflect the order in which people actually eat. We will be having double
sided cover menu and we will make 2 menu. One will be for only foods and
the other one will be for beverages only.

Uniform
Restaurant Uniforms arent just about looking professional. Theyre also
about delivering performance. So we have decided that our staff will be
having a specific dress code. The servers in a restaurant are, to most
customers, the face of the restaurant. Most of the time, the managers and
cooks are working hard behind the scenes, but the servers are hustling on
the floor to please their guests.
The image of the restaurant is reinforced by everything about the
servers, from their personality and professionalism to their grooming and
attire. Aside from the food and the service, restaurant uniforms and aprons in
particular can make or break the reputation of an eating establishment. It is
important that everyone on the staff looks put-together, is easily identifiable,
and can do their job efficiently.
The serving staff will be wearing a light blue color shirt with dark blue
waist coat and pant. Tie will be of black color. This dress code will be for
mens while women will be wearing light blue shirt with dark blue color waist
coat and skirt. They will having a bow to wear on it.
Chef uniforms will be with white chef coat and pant will be with small
checks of black and white with white color napkin and chef cap. For the
manger the color for shirt and pant will same but he will be wearing blazer
on it. The uniforms will be provided by us. For the chef we will be providing
slipping resistant shoes while the service staffs have to wear black shoes and
socks which they need to bring from their side.
Pricing Policy
Setting up a menu price is always a pivotal decision of any restaurant set up
which requires a lot of research and attention. It has to be periodically
revisited to respond to the changes in the industry, fluctuating market prices
and mood of the customers. It needs to take into consideration the following
28 | P a g e
factors like including the cost of food, cost of labor, what the competition is
doing and what your target customers are willing to pay.
Cost of Food
It is one of the first consideration that goes into pricing strategy. It is
simply what it costs to procure the ingredients used to make a particular
dish. Theres a reason why shrimps or lobster tends to costs more on the
menu than items like French fries or green salads. This is simply because the
cost of purchasing these items is higher than the others. Buying very high
quality, local, organic or sustainable ingredients can boost pricing as well.
Breaking down the costs of the ingredients that go into each dish will be the
base for us in setting our menu pricing.
Other Costs
Other costs that we will be including labor, rent, supplies, equipment
and marketing costs. the money brought in from your menu items will also
pay for your location, energy use, staff, equipment and marketing.
Market Changes
Food prices can fluctuate substantially. A natural disaster can drive up
the cost of seafood. Poor growing seasons can affect the price of certain
fruits and vegetables.
Customer Base
Our first and foremost priority will know who our customers going to
be. We will be considering them by setting the menu price. This will reflect
the image of the restaurant and can help in bringing the repeat customers.
For us it is important that our customers at all level feel that they are
receiving good value of their money.
Competition
We know that being new knew in this business we will be getting stiff
competition from our rivals. We will be doing some reconnaissance work. We
are not looking to beat are rivals prices. Instead we will be looking to provide
our customers better service, higher quality ingredients or a more engaging
dining atmosphere.
29 | P a g e
Tabletops
We will be using the following items for the table set up. Table cloth
from Schweitzer linen. The name of the table cloth is Florence. At the four
ends theres a unique design which creates a look of lavish luxury. It will be
in majestic white color.
Table napkins will also be from the same company which will be a linen
material. Glassware and silverware will be purchased from Edelstah Rostfrei
and Stolez-Lausitz. Crockery like flower pot, ash tray and china ware for salt
and pepper will be purchased from IKEA of Sweden. The set up for both lunch
and dinner will be same. The standard supplies that will be there on the table
will include:
