An interesting concept for a restaurant. I can appreciate how they encourage their patrons to bring in a reusable container(s) instead of the restaurant having to use one-use takeout containers. That alone seems to allow them more space for other kitchen items, raw food, and food containers. Instead of having to store plates, bowls, eating utensils, etc. It also would bring down the operation costs.
I am, however unsure how they are able to pay everyone a “living wage.” Does anyone have any insight on this?
They said on their website that most are fully paid employees but there’s a few people who help out occasionally and get paid in food. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to support 4 staff if you are selling a 1000 meals a night.
Wonderful info! Thank you for sharing.
That’s really cool. I’m definitely eating there next time I’m in Dunedin. For context on how much food normally costs. Cheap takeaways cost like 12-30$ for one person and a restaurant is 20-35$ for a meal.
