In this video I remember years ago when I worked in HUNTS POINT which supplies NYC a lot of places with food and it's split up into different types of food and I worked in the fruit and vegetable section huge operation and in the morning the trucks would line up and they have expanded it to serve the 5 bourbouges but I cooked for the help and drivers and MR CHANG lived upstairs but what I didn't like was that no one helped me slow and lazy. And I asked Mr CHANG for help and the PM cook took all of my stock and he was having problems with his wife. Not my problem and I told him to keep his problems at home. But that's a lot of French fries. But when I was in the Army we made a lot of food. Feeding thousands of troops 2 lines.Breakfast,lunch and dinner. 3 meals 7 day a week.

he complains about costs, but then overloads his portion sizes.

In this part of the video he talks about the price of everything has gone up and sometimes owners make a fatal mistake by increasing their selling price big mistake because the average person will notice the difference and I stopped going to restaurants when you figure out that a cheeseburger plus a soda is 15.00 so I stopped cold turkey can't see it so I eat before I leave the house as I don't eat a lot maybe a sandwich with juice and maybe some potato chips. Good enough as sometimes I don't eat because I have no appetite and I buy enough food for myself and sometimes I will freeze the food as I eventually will eat it what I feel like eating something.

In this part of the video I would drive a half a mile to get food supplies from Restaurant Depot cutting our cost and the rest was delivered to the deli and we paid cash. If I couldn't go I would give my list to one or 2 drivers to get our supplies and now Restaurant Depot has branched out to Zaners and another company and they are very busy as I see how many car's are parked. But the deli was very busy because we had no competition no hot food or good cooks. In this video there portions are huge enough for 4 people and I hate to ask how much is it but potatoes are very cheap compared to other foods but if you shop at COSTCO its cheaper when you buy in bulk but you will need a van.depending on the size of your establishment and usually the best way to cut your costs is to buy the place outright. Like buying the building. All rights and no lease. Or take out a bank loan. But Charlie got the money from his father who was retired as a policeman from the union.

In this part of the video when I worked in a Irish restaurant MARGO used lard instead of frymax or melfry and lard came from pigs fat which is not healthy but I didn't say a word and I don't like lard.so I bought my own oil and Jesse and me would eat our own fried foods but to much fried food is also not healthy so I limited myself like if you watch the news about black Americans eat to much fried foods that's why they have high blood pressure to much saturated fat is not healthy like beef,and pork chicken is OK,and seafood is good like omega oils 3,6,9. But I have omega 3 found in salmon,and avocados high count.but if you go to a bookstore many books about the subject as the trend is do not eat a lot of butter rather margarine as many restaurants have cut back to expensive think food costs everything adds up. 4:33

Also in this video I live in the Bronx and there are no food trucks and in queens very limited and the only other place is in WALL STREET and I don't think that its worth the price and when I am in the Bronx there is a food truck that sells sliced lamb,with rice,salad,and tostones for 8.00 not worth it as I can make everything for a fraction of the cost and he is cheap and you have to stand the whole time so I stopped going besides he is never busy no line nothing and I can buy my own 2 liter soda.and I go across the street to buy my own ice. But. Food prices have risen very fast so I go to the supermarket and enjoy myself at home play with the internet listen to music or watch TV.keep myself occupied do something and I am tired of making money for other people rather work for myself and I know where to get the proper paper work and I don't want to be. A vendor selling general merchandise no money in it not worth the investment

In this video I think that he is charging to much for French fries and I stopped buying McDonald's French fries and when they turn cold its like eating card board so I have a recipe and it's Idaho potatoes scraped in water,cut into wedges and put into seasoned flour and fried till they are golden brown or floating and served with Russian dressing with mayonnaise, ketchup and pickle relish,excellent product and when they turn cold they are still very good and in the news these fast food places have gone out the roof.even with there burgers it has gone out the door so I make it myself cheaper and with them there is only one temperature well done, and I like my burgers medium rare deluxe and there burgers are so small not worth it so like many people they go to the supermarket and make it at home. I look for value in anything I want to eat. Chicken, pork chops, beef, seafood, anything. And I know where to shop.and that includes 99 cent stores.Doesnt matter to me as I am a Chef by trade. And I don't even like filet mignon.I like some fat with my protein as I don't like pure lean.starch sauce and vegetables balanced meal and some dessert whether it be ice cream or cookies, pie,or cake.as I know how to bake them. Frosting you name it.

In this part of the video I looked into buying a food truck and they go for 100,000 dollars for that kind of money I can get a restaurant but the key is the location and getting the licenses and forget about the liquor license but they are not cheap and when I think about it my ex wife would have taken the money so I am glad I never did it because I could have gotten the money from my father or the VA.and the VA would have backed the loan. FdicOrFSLIC.BUT if I were him he has to expand his menu,make it more attractive can't just make money on one item. And last week I went to the Va hospital and they wanted 8.50 for a sandwich to much money and they wanted 3.00 for a large coffee so I made it at home and I have instant and ground coffee sugar is nothing and I use half and half. And I don't care for milk. Use it for soup.or plain water. But I don't like powdered creamer.as there is nothing wrong with me as I have done my physical except for B-12.and just have to go to the VA once a month no big deal just enjoy the ride on the MTA SUBWAY BESIDE S i am a senior citizen half fare.1 25 one way not bad
