1.0 out of 5 stars waste of time and money, April 6, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Basic Food and Beverage Cost Control (Hardcover)
Interestingly enough, in a course which claims to instruct students in making wise spending choices and detailed accounts of managing expenses, I found that this required text refuted such theories. I was forced to buy this book, and feel that the content and the overall ineptitude of the quality, only re-inforced a few of the book's points, which were not so informative. It reminded me that I wasted so much time and money on something that served no useful purpose. I guess it would be like ordering a multitude of food products that would never have any use in a specific operation. For this reason, it taught very valuable lessons. I believe, however, they could have been learned by spending this money on something more useful. Very poorly written, and often inaccurate. Not at all helpful in trying to apply this information in a real life setting. Perhaps, actually visiting a restaurant or working in one might provide the authors a little more insight.

5.0 out of 5 stars menu pricing, November 27, 2000

ron charles (Albany, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Food and Beverage Cost Control (Hardcover)
The book has a really good discussion on menu pricing that I was looking for. A shorter section than in than Miller's other book, but easier to get the important information. Worth the price of the book.
