Needs and Desires of Guests
In planning a menu, the needs and desires of the guests are what is important — not what the owner, chef, or manager thinks. If it is deter­mined that there is a niche in the market for a particular kind of restau­rant, then the menu must harmonize with the theme of the restaurant.
The Olive Garden restaurants are a good example of a national chain that has developed rapidly over the past few years. The concept has been positioned and defined as middle of the road with a broad-based appeal. During the concept development phase, several focus groups were asked their opinions on topics from dishes to decor. The result has been ex­tremely successful.
Several other restaurants have become successful by focusing on the needs and desires of the guest. Among them are Hard Rock Cafe, TGI Friday's, Red Lobster, Applebee's, and so on. [1, 202—205]
