65 seat Bistro in Columbus, Indiana. Was hired on by owners who had zero restaurant experience. I straightened out all their finances, promoted, designed and created seasonal menus, hired and trained both FOH & BOH. Organized their POS. Under my supervision it has been running on 15% labor costs and 35% food cost, which was not established under previous management. 65 seat Bistro in Columbus, Indiana.
