CONCEPT OF FINE DINING IN GENEVA

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.

MACRO INDUSTRY ANALYSIS FOR FINE DINE RESTAURENT IN GENEVA USING PESTEL

The restaurant concepts of fine dine in Geneva depend upon a number of industry-specific and general economic, political, legal and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

The restaurant industry is affected by changes in national, regional and local economic conditions, consumer spending patterns and consumer preferences. Recessionary economic cycles, a protracted economic slowdown, a worsening economy, increased unemployment, decreased salaries and wage rates, increased energy prices, inflation, rising interest rates or other industry-wide cost pressures affect consumer behavior and decrease spending for restaurant dining occasions, leading to a decline in our sales and earnings.

When gasoline, natural gas, electricity and other energy costs increase, and credit card, home mortgage and other borrowing costs increase with rising interest rates, our guests may have less disposable income and reduce the frequency with which they dine out. This is particularly the case with fine

2 | P a g e

Page 3: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

dining concepts like because consumers may choose more inexpensive restaurants (such as quick-service restaurants or fast casual dining) when eating outside the home.

Unfavorable changes in the factors described above or in other business and economic conditions affecting our customers could increase our costs, reduce traffic in some or all of our restaurants or impose practical limits on pricing, any of which would lower our profit margins and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

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

Government regulations regarding hygiene, health and food

regulations, food standards, etc. and these factors may wary with the

government in Geneva and election patterns in Geneva because once

government change it might change expectation and local regulation ,

policy has direct effect on our business of fine dine restaurant in

Geneva

Economic policies of government regarding the restaurant industry and

running eating joints; these may include licenses, inspections by

Health and Food Ministry departments, etc. The City Council constitutes the executive government of the City of

Geneva and operates as a collegiate authority. It is composed of five councilors, each presiding over a department.

The president of the executive department acts as mayor. Geneva City president in 2012 is Rémy Pagani. Departmental tasks, coordination measures and implementation of laws decreed by the City Parliament are carried by the City Council.

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

3 | P a g e

Page 4: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

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:

Eating habits of the people in your chosen business environment may,

and certainly will, affect your marketing decisions.

Ratio of people preferring to eat out regularly.

Consumer behavior and spending habit on fine dining in our case it is

very high because the people in Geneva are very rich and have high

power of purchasing quality goods and service.

Technological factors:

In general, the restaurant industry is a low-technology industry. In fine dine

restaurant specialized equipment is the largest technological factor. For

4 | P a g e

Page 5: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

example, if all the pizzerias in a market use specialized ovens to cook their

pizzas quickly, then it will likely be necessary to acquire such an oven to

compete with these restaurants. We will be doing business in Geneva and

that we prepare a good hygiene food with help of latest technology in

kitchen and we are having technically sound front office apart from that we

would like to adopt the other technology like website marketing and e-

commerce. Following are the factors that affect our business of fine dine in

Geneva

A good technical infrastructure would lead to better production,

procurement and distribution logistics, resulting in reduced wastage

and lower costs.

Sound technology in kitchen may be a decisive factor for food

technology innovation, better presentation, more effective business

marketing, etc.

Competitive intensity and attractiveness of a market using porter‘s

five force in Geneva

Porter's model the most accurate, It really shows you all the aspects that one

should be aware when entering an industry. Such as, competition, threats of

new entry, power of suppliers, power of buyers, and substitute products. I

like about the restaurant business and I am delighted to open my own fine

dine restaurant pretty soon in Geneva. I will use the Porter's 5 Forces to

determine in Geneva whether the restaurant industry is attractive or not.

Threats of new entry in Geneva: HIGH - New restaurants are opening

moderately high in the Geneva area. In Geneva such a diversity of cultures,

and there are many restaurants with cuisines from all over the world. Anyone

can walk a few blocks and see Italian, Chinese, Spanish, Indian, Turkish, and

many other types of cuisines. This shows in low brand loyalty from

customers. The switching costs are relatively low. Because there is so much

5 | P a g e

Page 6: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

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.

well-furnished round square table with decent white and red table top.

Brunch offered in our restaurant with different appetizer and salads includes variety of dishes include Indian, Italian and French cuisine; In addition to the appetizer we offer Swiss expensive chocolate to our children entrance in our restaurants in brunch as well as dinner. Moreover Customer service in our fine dining restaurant is more attentative than in casual dining.

Operation philosophy in Fine Dine Restaurant

A fine dining server requires to be rigorously trained. They should be able to answer any and all questions that customers may have about a menu or item or wine. They should also be ready to make menu recommendations, if asked. No detail is ever too small to pay attention to in fine dining. Moreover the table cloth, internal decoration, cutlery management, food presentation and service quality does matter in fine dining restaurants because people are here for memorable touch for dining then equally important the quality of food. Moreover entertainment as well play vital role in success of fine dines restaurants. We are marketing our restaurants with quality dining and touch of good experience with high class service.

9 | P a g e

Page 10: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

Our guest who served the wine from our wide variety of wine with pictures in menu personally and our server know everything about the type of wine and suggest and help to select the best wine for customers in addition to that the soothing music with different cultural taste will be played in back ground with slow decent volume.

Hours of Operation

Monday – Closed.

Tuesday – Thursday – Lunch timings will be from 11:00 hrs. – 14:00 hrs.

Dinner timings will be from 17:00 hrs. – 22:00 hrs. Friday – Sunday – Lunch timings will be as usual from 11:00 hrs. –

14:00 hrs. Whereas dinner timings will be from 17:00 hrs. –

23:00 hrs.

During lunch and dinner we will be having fine dining service.

EntertainmentAn 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.

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.

10 | P a g e

Page 11: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

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 kid’s 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.

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.

11 | P a g e

Page 12: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

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:

Escorting patrons to the table, holding the chair for women

Escorting patrons to the restrooms

Crumbing the table in between courses

Replacing linen napkins if a patron leaves the table

Explaining menu items without notes 

Serving food directly on the plate at the table

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

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

12 | P a g e

Page 13: Fine dine concept in Geneva , how to open Restaurant

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 à 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 aren’t just about looking professional. They’re

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

men’s 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.

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

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. There’s 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.

ends there’s a unique design which creates a look of lavish luxury. It will be
