Yesterday was a strong day — $3,240 in revenue (+18% vs. last Tuesday). The pork belly special was the star: 28 orders, $880 contribution margin. Diary noted multiple compliments on the preparation. The slow-roasted chicken continues to underperform (only 12 covers, low margin).
Feature the pork belly special again today — increase prep by 30%
Replace the slow-roasted chicken with a lighter summer salad on the specials board
Run a 4-7 PM happy hour on nachos to boost slow afternoon covers
Tuesdays are consistently your slowest lunch day. Pairing a low-cost special (nachos) with a high-margin drink upsell could lift average ticket by $6-8 on Tuesdays.
