A pretty menu that leaves no margin doesn't sustain a business. We work the menu the way a professional coffee shop does: standardized recipe in baker's percentage, real cost per portion, target food cost %, and a classification of each item by how much it sells and how much it leaves.
Recipe costing — baker's percentage, replicable by anyone on your team.
Suggested price based on your food cost % target.
Profitability matrix — what to protect, what to redesign, what to drop.
Standardized recipe card, ready to print in your kitchen or bar.
A practical introduction to understanding what you're drinking, why it tastes different,
and which LUMORA coffee fits you.

but practices, corrects, and leaves with a clearer way to serve it.
It's not a lecture. It's a session with someone who has worked
coffee from origin to cup, and knows exactly what fails
and why.
