Development

and recipe development.

Justifying the development of food service environment in
order to support the menu, recipe and service style.

which will assist in making the customer
more attracted to the new recipe and food

the attended in the restaurant will be

Music and lightening: in order to develop a
food service environment, the music will
be traditional flute tunes of India and
lightening of the restaurant will be dim in
order to create a peaceful environment.

Finding of research into customer requirement for new
food concept

Justifying the choice of new food concept.
By surveying to the 50 customers in market regarding their preferences for the
restaurants, it has found that many customers prefers change in varieties of food. On the
basis of these finding, the new food concept which combination of Indian taste in Italian
dishes is introduced. It can be said that, Indian species in famous all around the world, the
new food concept will assist in attracting the customers as many customers prefer varieties in
food. By developing proper food services environment restaurant can develop its menu-
developing process.

Recommendation on launch of new product concept.
From the findings of the survey, it can be recommended to Prezzo Italian
restaurant that it should do better research on the Indian food. The restaurant should be
ensure that the chef will be able to cook as per the new food concept. It can also be
recommanded that restaurant should be ensure of available resources such as Indian
ingredients in the market. The restaurant should make effective planning on the pricing
strategy in order to attract more customers.
It can also be recommanded to the restaurants that, it should done proper
research for the restaurant ambience, its table layout, lightening and decor which will look
attractive and should reflect the new food concept of the restaurants. The staff of
restaurants should be well-dressed and effective enough in order to communicate to the
customers.

Reviewing the performance in relation to developing and
implementing new food concept.
With successfully implementation of
menu planning and developing, I can say
that there are various opportunities which
can be grasp for the grasp and expansion
of restaurants. The new food concept of
Indo-Italian themes has been introduced
after surveying from customer regarding
their taste and preferences. I have also
analysed the food service environment
which is essential in order to implement
the new recipe better.
