RESTAURANT CHALLENGES - KDS SOLUTIONS
Where is the waiter when you need one?
Waiters waste their time and slow the kitchen staff with needless questions:
– How long will the order take? – Is their order ready?
– I need to add something to their order
Your waiters are in the kitchen instead of taking care of customers!
the solution
Using the KDS, kitchen notifies the waiter on the tablet when the order is ready to be served. In this case, waiting in the kitchen and talking to the chef will no longer be justified, and all this time will be better spent with your clients.
I AM SORRY. WE ARE OUT OF WHAT YOU ORDERED
A product is getting low on stock. The waiters need to know exactly how many portions are left or they recommend something that is out of stock. The customer is not happy! Your business looks unprofessional
the solution
Use the KDS to enter a limited quantity for a product. All waiters are notified on their device, and a counter sets on that product so that no one can sell it when it reaches its limit. At any time waiters see on their tablets how much of that product is available
