Design and Layout of Foodservice Facilities offers owners, managers, and other decision makers in foodservice operations an extensive reference manual for the entire foodservice process - from the development of a new food idea or concept, through the processes of planning, financing, design, and construction, to the final inspection that occurs just prior to the opening of the establishment.
