		<description>Congratulations on your decision to open your own restaurant, good luck and I will return to check on your progress with your endeavors.  As you mentioned, the key is taking time out to plan, your business plan is going to be the key to your success, it is important to plan every detail, no just food costs, especially with the resent hike in prices, but make plans for the unexpected, permit delays before you open, gas and electric when you open.  

I have worked with a lot of students from culinary schools across the country and paying those loans off the first thing on their minds.  Good to see you are taking it to the next level.

Take your time to plan your business and you will be serving your 250 tables in a few short years.

Good Luck,&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;Current score: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-130217&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>I totally agree, Serena! 

You&#039;re the person who convinced me to go vegetarian four years ago after spending those couple weeks with you and your cooking. I know you have the skills!&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;Current score: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-128286&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>Hi Alex!  It&#039;s going to be an organic, vegan restaurant.  In my opinion, eating vegan can be both compassionate &lt;i&gt;and&lt;/i&gt; delicious!  You don&#039;t have to sacrifice flavor to eat cruelty free.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;Current score: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-127815&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
