Who we are

Restaurant Performance & Profit Consultant


With over five decades of hands-on experience in hospitality operations, I assist independent restaurant owners in enhancing profitability through effective restaurant performance consulting. My focus includes menu strategy improvement, refining management systems, and establishing sustainable operational foundations.


My consulting approach is project-based and tailored to each client's needs—ranging from operational assessments and menu engineering to leadership training and concept development.


I prioritize practical solutions that boost efficiency, clarity, and long-term success.


“I’m now offering project-based restaurant consulting aimed at improving operations, enhancing menu profitability, and developing management skills. If you know any operators who could benefit from strategic guidance, I’d greatly appreciate a referral.”

Our specialty

We specialize in restaurant concepts and food product development with health and wellness in mind. Our focus includes expertise in diabetes, celiac disease, vegetarianism, and other topics relevant to your customer’s well-being. We are the creators of the Mediterranean Diet 21.


Our team of chefs and strategists combines out-of-the-box thinking with proven consulting skills, enhancing hospitality operations and driving menu strategy improvement. We're at the forefront of social media trends, new technologies, and innovative communication methods. Under the guidance of Chef Walter Potenza, a leader in the industry for over 50 years, we have established a strong foundation for restaurant performance consulting that is set for decades to come.


We built healthy ideas!
