How do I pay my rent on the property I am running the cafe on? |
|
| |
It sounds a whole lot like what I have
for dinner at home...without the
socialization of a cafe of course. |
|
| |
observe McDonalds and Burger King who will run a special of $1.00 burgers or other items. These could not sustain the business alone, but the other offerings at regular prices do. |
|
| |
No one buys collages, that's why students of collage are so poor. |
|
| |
Imagine an entire campus devoted to collage. I'd major in paper mache'. |
|
| |
I didn't notice the error >< |
|
| |
Or did you mean a special campus serving lots of different colleges? |
|
| |
Baked, just about every café serves cheap food.
Since I went wheat free 4 years ago there is no cheap (low quality and low nutrition ) foods for me.
Wheat = Cheap = low nutrition
Fishbone has more calcium than croissant :) |

What [Galbinus_Caeli] said - if it's economic to do this then it will already be done; if it's not economic to do it, then it's not going to happen (and the students will have to dull their hunger pangs by sniffing the collage glue). |
|
| |
The title looks like the name of a strange thriller sci-fi-action flick. Like "Burger and Fries: The Reckoning." |
|
| |
Maybe French fries sold by the piece - 5¢ each. |
|
| |
It's always going to be cheaper to make your own food from supermarket-bought ingredients. You'd think college students would be smart enough to realise this. |
|
| |
Collage students let vegetables rot. Not monetarily efficient. You still have to shop smart to save money, text. |
|
| |
Food is cheap already, staff and property are not. You can only reduce the cost of the product by cheaper staff (soup kitchen) or cheaper rent (build in the desert). |
|
| |
To reduce staffing costs, let the customers
do the work: cook for one hour, eat for
free. And to reduce property costs, set
these outfits up in people's own homes.
They could also do the purchasing of the
ingredients, reducing those costs further.
Use really tacky-looking equipment and
call them Kitsch Inns. |
|
| |
I always thought this would be a good idea when I was in college - then I realized hoiw expensive it is to run any kind of restaurant. |
|

If you're willing to wash dishes for an hour, a lot of restaurants will feed you. Better to make the deal in advance, though. |
|
| |
Pizza places will sometimes give you a couple of pies if you'll deliver during the evening rush (and you get tips, too). |
|
| |
You usually get a lot more food than you could buy with the money if you were just paid straight up. |
