You are opening a restaurant! This year you will be working on the ins and outs of opening a
restaurant; we will use what we learn this year to look at the different parts of starting a new
restaurant. Start by answering a few questions about your restaurant:
Restaurant Name: _______________________________________________________________
Is your restaurant fast food with a drive thru, dine-in, or fancy? __________________________
What type of food will you be serving? Will you serve “American” fare (a blend of different
foods) or focus on a specific ethnic food (Chinese, Italian, Japanese) or one particular food (hot
dogs, burgers, wraps, pizza)? ______________________________________________________
You need to design a logo for your restaurant. This would be the thing that people see in their
mind when they think of your restaurant. For example—we think of McDonald’s and see
“Golden Arches”. This is McDonald’s logo. Draw your logo in the box below.

Next you will be creating your menu! You will need to do some research on prices for the types
of food you will serve. Pick 2 real restaurants, similar to your own, to look at for prices. Here are
some examples:



American
o Applebee’s
o McDonald’s
Italian
o Olive Garden
o Elizabeth’s
Mexican
o San Felipe
o Taco Bell
Steak Houses
o Texas Road House
o Sagebrush
Chinese/Japanese
o Yamato
o #1 China Buffet
Coffee House
o Starbucks
o Dunkin Donuts
List the two restaurants you will look at for information on prices:

On a separate sheet of paper begin creating your menu. You need to have 3 of each of these
items:


Appetizers
Main Meal
Sides

Desserts
Each item needs a name, price, description, and picture.

In the graph paper below, draw the layout for your restaurant.
1) Draw an outline of the building.
2) Add a line for the wall between the kitchen and the dining area.
The kitchen should take up ⅓ of your restaurant space.
3) Add tables, chairs, and booths.
Each chair takes up 1 square.
A two person booth is 2 squares long and 1 square wide. A three person
booth is 3 squares long and 1 square wide.
A 2-person table is 2 squares wide and 1 square long. A 4-person table is 2
squares long and 2 squares wide. A 6-person table
4)
