Food truck/trailer where I specialize in tacos and pizza and stay open late for the stoner crowd because everything but Jack and Taco Hell close by 10pm.

Have maybe 3 types of tacos. A few pizza toppings. Build my own towable pizza oven out of carbon steel, powered by either wood or coal. I live in the deep South and there good pizza is almost non-existent and good tacos are few and far between.

>Would you say that having a food truck is better than owning a small restaurant?
Yes. Because you are mobile and can set up at high traffic intersections and pull up stakes and cater to concerts/festivals/sporting events/weddings/birthdays etc. So much more flexible. And the overhead is surely much lower. You're not married to a single location or under contract and locked into a shitty lease. My mom ran a successful dougnut shop before the owner retired and my sister is going to open up a doughnut truck. She already has a very lucrative pet grooming business but she is getting tired of handling large dogs. It's bad for her back. It may be something we can split. She does morning slinging doughnuts and I do dinner- 3am drunk patrol.handnoff the truck to her at 4am.

My dream is to open a ramen restaurant that isn't a shitty cash grab run by phlips or hipsters and isn't an over priced zoomer trap.
I will hand make the noodles. I will serve 3 types of ramen: tonkatsu, shoyu and red miso. I will have puffed rice at the table and water pitchers will be placed on the table as well when the guest sits down.
I will not hire people with tattoos, or dumb anime thots. The staff will give a hearty, but not absurd “Irasshaimase!” when you enter. The wait staff will not except tips. I will only hire nice Christian girls who are genuinely happy to see the customer. If you are rude you get throw the fuck out. You pay upfront, and no comped anything. I will only play 70s, 80s, 90s, jpop/rock on the radio.

I once had a dream where I was in a restaurant where you had to win a quiz before ordering.
If you won you got to pick whatever you wanted to eat, otherwise the restaurant owner got to pick for you.
It didn't matter though because he was a very nice guy and even if you lost he would make sure you were given something you would enjoy.

I used to go to a giropizza place (idk if they exist outside Italy but you pay a fixed amount of money and you get unlimited and different pizza at your table until you’re full) where on Friday there was a live quiz show where every table was a team (they asked to enter your team’s name and they added it to the live scoreboard) and got one remote with 4 buttons, then as you were eating they asked questions for the game and you had to choose the right answer pressing the correct button.

At the end the winning team (max 4 people) didn’t have to pay for their dinner, the 2nd one had to pay 50%, the 3rd got free beverages and so on.

They used to have thematic games with different prizes. One day my table got the 3rd place and we won 2 lottery tickets and we won 200€.

It was super cool, however this place misteriously and suddenly closed even if it was always packed. Mafia probably.

Restaurant where you come alone and pick type of food you want: italian, japanese, slav, american, whatever. Then you get paired with someone who picked same food as you. So blind date kinda thing. You can also rate the person and if they are nice they'll be paired with more people. Thinking about, it doesn't have to be a restaurant! It can be an app where pick a local spot and paired with someone who picked same, and you can't decline. If you don't show up 3 times you get banned. What do you think?

I always had this dream where if I was ever a millionaire or extremely rich where I don't care about losing money because it wouldn't put a dent into my wealth, I would open some kind of super noodle restaurant. This restaurant would serve Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese style noodles at an affordable price. The likelihood of such a project would probably be very hard which is why it requires fuckyou money to hire a large team, a large plot of land to build such a place, and other expenses. It would be opened 24 hours with lots of teams of dedicated cooks switching shifts, etc.. This idea came to me one late night as I tend to crave wanting a tasty bowl of noodle soup but every place around me closes at the 10:00 PM to 11:00 PM time frame. It would pander a lot to weirdos like me that love the very late night atmosphere.

[Anonymous No.14064484]

I always thought it would be cool to have a fantasy-styled "Dwarven" eatery. Like, with decor inspired by traditional fantasy dwarven shit- very angular, sturdy, simple, geometric, stout. The actual meals would be meat-and potatoes type fare, but with a heavy focus on mushrooms and root vegetables of various kinds, and with strong beers providing the liquid base for most of the meals. Drink list would also focus on strong, dark beers, with meads and other fun stuff like that.

I realize that the idea of trying to run a fantasy restaurant as anything other than a gimmick is retarded, but i've always thought it would be cool.

Nah, it's mostly just because retro-fitting a smoker into a tiny British building is expensive and hard.
Building a bespoke place is similarly hard, and next to impossible in an urban area, where most of the customers are.
Best bet would probably be converting an old industrial space, but most of those have been converted to flats, or knocked down.
Barbecue isn's fucking magic, you just need a smoker and a decent meat supply.

I've seriously been looking into this restaurant idea. You start by choosing what kind of french fry you want (russet, golden, sweet potato, green bean) as the bed or base layer and then you choose your toppings.

Similar concept, but the pretentiously high end restaurant I used to dishbitch at had 'experimental' Tuesdays. The customer got 1/3 off the normal set menu rate, and we had to use up whatever ingredients we had excess of. the chef advertised it to customers as testing out new menu items with purpose ordered stock items, but he was lazy so in general it was just a slight twist on on the normal menu e.g. pesto lamb rack -> Morrocan lamb rack

Zoomer trap ramen places are the fucking worst.

Last time I was up in Portland for a business conference, I decided to hit up some small ramen store that was downtown. That was my mistake, as I already knew better than to go anywhere downtown (its all hipster zoomer bait)
The noodles were overcooked. There was no tare that was used as the base. The broth tasted like ass, it was overly salty like it was just bought from the store and reduced. The "soft boiled" egg that I got was hard boiled, and the worst offender of all, they cut the fucking noodles (like 3-4 inch segments)

There's a place pretty similar to this in New York City on the upper west side, around the 72nd St subway entrance. They only have pork chasu ramen in 4-5 styles, the store owner is a really young girl and the whole staff yells "Irasshaimase!" when you enter. It's pretty nice and seems to get a lot of lonely old people going in to eat alone and contemplate their lives
