first, the status quo of hotel catering
hotels are facing serious challenges of social catering, and the current popularity of social catering is in stark contrast to the coldness of hotel catering. In-house guests eat less and less in hotels, and usually eat in restaurants and restaurants outside hotels. The consumption habits of non-in-house guests have also changed. In the past, guests preferred hotels for banquets, but now they seldom patronize hotel restaurants. It can be said that many hotels' restaurants have lost their scenery. In terms of dish pricing, the usual gross profit margin plus pricing method is no longer feasible, so we can only "lower our status" and adopt market-based pricing, which greatly reduces the turnover and seriously reduces the benefits. Many hotel catering department managers found that even if they introduced popular dishes in the market and took various measures such as price reduction, preferential treatment and special dishes, they still had little effect. On the contrary, the dishes in high-end restaurants on the market are more expensive than those in hotels, but they are still full of customers ... What is the way out for hotel catering?
