Could a pasta based fast food restaurant franchise work, it seems like pasta would make a good fast food.

>pasta-based fast food
Sure.
>franchise
Nope, that's where it breaks down. At that level, nobody wants to make fresh pasta that only takes a couple of minutes to boil, they'll stick you with shitty dry garbage that takes 10-12 minutes to cook. And the margins on the refridgerated shit that only takes a couple of minutes would be way too low to make it worth your while.

Uhh, parcooking dry as morning prep is easily done.
From there, it becomes a quick dunk in the boilolator to rejuvenate, then sauce & toss.

Yes.
The market is already saturated.
Pizza Hut, Fazoli's, Noodles & Co, MACS, and a few others are already there.
All the Pho and Ramen shops are competition, too.

Pasta is fast casual at best; no way to really get down to 3 minute drive thru times and maintain quality people are willing to pay for.

already exists, and it can't be topped

[Anonymous No.15929172]

You mean Fazoli's?
Never see anyone at one and they're more expensive than I remember but it takes me back to childhood still.

Pasta Cup uses fresh pasta made in store. It makes sense specifically because of the cooking times.

[Anonymous No.15929597]

Jolly Pasta in japan is pretty decent. Portions painfully small though.

Plenty of places that sell Chinese noodles in cardboard boxes already so I don't see why not.
