Task 7. Read the text and answer questions 1-4.

Have you ever dreamed about opening a restaurant? If so, then you have something in common with me. Ever since I was a small boy I wanted to be a chef, with much of my childhood spent in the kitchen with my grandma making cakes and sweet things. Back then, my main ambition was to work in a restaurant, but since taking a number of stressful and badly paid jobs in different restaurants, my ideas have changed. When I first started to talk about my big plans, many people told me it was an impossible dream. They thought there was too much risk involved, particularly since there are so many restaurants close to where I live. However, I’m happy I didn’t listen to them. It’s actually quite possible to follow any dream you have as long as you are ready to deal with some difficulties and enjoy taking on new challenges. If you really love what you do, it may be the best step you have ever taken.

There are a number of things to consider before you go ahead with your plan. Money is always a big issue. There are a lot of things you need to buy before opening to customers such as furniture and supplies, and then once you open there will be staff to pay. They will need to be paid even during times when there isn’t a lot of business so you need to have money in the bank. I’d recommend having enough money saved so that you can continue to serve customers for two or three months even without making any money. Otherwise you might have to shut down before you even get going.

The next thing to consider is how to get customers. Choosing a popular location is vital, but even more important is offering a unique and interesting experience to diners. I love going to restaurants that serve unusual food or have a special atmosphere. You can do that by offering live music or hanging original art on the walls. I visited a lot of different restaurants when I was considering what my place should look like, and that helped me to decide what was important. I ended up opening a restaurant serving traditional food as I realised there was nothing like that in my local area.

The final aspect is becoming known to the public. Social media is a great tool for making sure that people hear about your restaurant, but traditional advertising is also important. Not everyone, in particular older people with plenty of money, use social networks, and you don’t want to miss the opportunity to serve them. You can also organise special events that people will be excited to attend. Most importantly, show how passionate you are about the food you serve, the way you treat customers and the experience you offer. With enough love and dedication, you really can succeed.
