Spent the afternoon watching food get prepared today. Seems like I'll need to know in detail of how each item on our menu is made. If there will be one person responsible for how our food tastes and is prepared, it will be me. I've been documenting the process all day today and making training videos for when I start to train our line cooks how to make our food. This will be quite the process. I never realized how much preparation goes into each in every pot of Pho broth. Chicken was a little bit easier than the beef pho but still, pretty lengthy process.

I'm still working out the kinks of how our new kitchen will flow. Keep in mind we won't be able to mirror exactly what PV is currently doing because we won't be doing the same kind of volume. We are expanding into heavy traffic areas. The rent is considerably higher meaning we will need to be operating at almost 3-4 times capacity.
Dan and I are currently allocating different parts of the business to each other for efficiency. He's up in Westlake / Thousand Oaks area scoping out other suitable locations. I believe we are able to look as far down south as Orange County and as far north as the valley but our first two locations must have one in LA. I really hope the location on Beverly will fall through. I'm not happy with such high rent but hopefully we can negotiate down.
Alrighty well going to eat a bowl of Pho I made for myself. Yummm
