First, we look at the foundations of establishing a successful hospitality business -
- the concept
- the important sales to ingredient cost rations
- staffing levels
- profitability behind these costs
SETTING UP
We look at key information regarding the physical setup of a business. Starting with important information from Auckland Council, or your local council, about zoning for a location and approvals for alterations to a building, formulating a food control plan, getting approval for an alcohol licence.
We then look at the equipment you may need to use and commercial kitchen food safety requirements - from refrigeration and extraction systems to types of ovens and coffee machines, flooring and much more.
HOW TO COST
We will discuss look models of how to calculate what you should sell your product for - the retail margins, as well as the cost breakdown as well, has how you are going to pay your self.
Lots to think about and learn in this one day workshop.
Celia Hay, director of the New Zealand School of Food and Wine and hospitality entrepreneur having established 10 different business and has a wealth of knowledge about how to establish and then grow a business.

An insightful glimpse into the concerns, dreams and joys of childhood.
The story centres around Michael Hope, a young boy, who lives on a volcano. While geological rumblings may remain deep underground, unrest in the adult world threatens to erupt into his life, changing everything.
Peninsula is a bittersweet coming of age story, rich with Kiwi nostalgia, brought to you by 5 talented actors who play two characters each - one young and one older.

A team is made up of two people - an adult; dad or mum or a trusted relative or family friend and a child aged between 6 and 14 years of age.
The challenges range from physical (like tug-of-war) to mental (like the memory challenge) to knowledge-based (like the music challenge) to fun (like painting with Resene colours).

I'm not so confident with that repair and I'd rather just buy a new fridge than shell out to have someone repair it, so now the fridge needs a new home, hopefully to someone who can use it for parts (seriously, those door seals have been on only a week- they can't be wasted!) or who wants to replace the temperature control panel and net themselves a great fridge. 1690mm high X 650mm deep X 640mm wide. Currently it is still working but the freezer compartment is getting frosty and the fridge temp is fluctuating, so it will need a repair or be used for parts. I've put it on TradeMe, but thought I'd post here too. Please check it out if you're interested:

Pick up only from Takapuna, I can't deliver but I can help you get it down the stairs!
