The dress code of your workplace is something you will want to pay attention to. There are laws in place so no gender discrimination happens in the workplace. Rules must be the same for men and women and if women are forced to wear certain things, then it needs to be taken away because the same rule does not apply to men.

Menu fatigue is a unique problem that restaurants face when their customers become bored with the choices that are offered. One way to fix this problem is to offer seasonal items and menu choices that are not always available. Seasonal items are a good opportunity for restaurateurs to test new items, and decide if those choices are worth keeping around. It is a minimal risk way of testing items and removing them from the menu if they do not sell well, and consider keeping them on the menu, if they sell very well.
Key Takeaways:
- For some, familiarity can be comforting, but for others, familiarity can be exhausting. When the same menu offerings day in and day out lead guests to search for options elsewhere, they may be suffering from “menu fatigue.”
- Seasonal menu items are the perfect way to try out your potential new addition with your customers. By labeling the item as seasonal, customers won’t be surprised if the item disappears in a few months after limited acceptance or success.
- Seasonal menu items give you the opportunity to make your new menu items fun. Ask customers for their feedback via in-restaurant comment cards and social media.
“Social media contests that pit one new menu item against the other are a great way to increase engagement on your social platforms as well as in the restaurant.”

Seizing the breakfast opportunity
Many restaurateurs — even those without a full breakfast program — are finding that well-crafted, all-day breakfast selections can help to generate sales, particularly those that are menuing highly portable breakfast sandwiches like McDonald’s iconic Egg McMuffin. At the same time, operators are catering to consumers who are looking for a more adventurous early morning dining experience by incorporating such on-trend influences as global and ethnic fare, bolder flavors and nutritional concerns.
Key Takeaways:
“In the National Restaurant Association’s 2016 industry forecast, 70 percent of consumers polled said they wished restaurants served breakfast throughout the day.”
