Review: Out of Date But Useful - Granted this book is a bit outdated, the information is very useful and it will give you a solid foundation to start with by pointing out specific restaurant management points. If you've been in the industry for a while this book may not help you but if you're new to the industry or want to further your knowledge for perhaps a management job then this book is a good start.

If you've been in the industry for a while this book may not help you but if you're new to the industry or want to further your knowledge for perhaps a management job then this book is a good start. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Book *by J***M on March 13, 2019* Do not buy if you compete in my market : ) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for Newbies or a Refresher for the Experienced *by D***D on March 24, 2009* Purchased this as a gift for my father who's owned a restaurant for 25+ years. In this economy I figured any little bit of information might help and I didn't really expect this to tell him anything he didn't already know but it's relatively inexpensive so I figured "why not?" I was more or less right. "Sometimes it's good to remember the basics" was his take on it. It didn't tell him anything he didn't know but it did remind him of a few things and that was the goal. I expect this would be more beneficial to the young, inexperienced restaurant owner/manager but for the more experienced professional you'll probably have the same reaction my father did. It's a relatively quick read and well-organized with the tips and explanations. The book also arrived quickly and in the promised condition. Again, if you're a newbie or just starting out this may be of great help to you. If you're already established don't expect any ground-breaking revelations. Just a few reminders of what you may have forgotten. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/8134898-the-food-service-professionals-guide-to-controlling-restaurant-and-food](https://www.desertcart.us/products/8134898-the-food-service-professionals-guide-to-controlling-restaurant-and-food) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-05*
