From upscale steakhouses to casual-dining chains, restaurant operators are always grappling with fluctuating food costs and labor markets, with a looming question: how can I continue to deliver exceptional experiences while managing these persistent hurdles? Sometimes, looking back to traditional hospitality models from different cultures can be the right move. Galpao Gaucho Brazilian Steakhouse, for example, is inspired by Gaucho culture and the authentic dining tradition of the Brazilian cowboy, which means guests get the whole rodizio experience—an unlimited two-course menu including 18 cuts of meat. I sat down with Galpao Gaucho area manager Edson Ludwig to learn more about the unique yet efficient labor and training model, and how he balances food costs while maintaining upscale quality: "It can be a challenge, but I think we do well overall, and it has a lot to do with the training we have in place with our gauchos, our chefs behind the skewer who bring the meats to your table. We train them to manage the quantities and how much they put on the grill based on the volume they have in the dining room, and when they’re carving the meats at tableside, making sure they’re carving the right temperature that you like, medium, rare, well done; every single slice they serve at the table," Ludwig says. https://lnkd.in/gf5JH_sj
