Sprucing up your dining area

With the so many restaurant themes that have come up and the stiff competition among restaurants, the need to find an edge is now a must.

The edge or what makes you different from others or what your customers would keep coming back for should be clear and should be understand by your customers.

In this aspect, the focal point should be your dining room. There are definitely other guest areas that are just as important like your toilets, parking area and entrance.

One of the things that you is often overlooked over the design is how comfortable the area is. I particularly like restaurants where you can slouch and be comfortable in cozy chairs. Now that I am thinking about it, how about persian rugs and low tables? I think rugs will always embody an ambience of coziness.

Comfortable can also be accomplished by making your tables and chairs lower than the usual dinner table set where your knees are bent at basically 90 degrees. One of my favorite restaurants have low tables and chairs that allow you to slouch and lean over the table. Talk about table manners! What more if you have hand knotted rugs for that great feel on your feet when you take off your shoes.

Comfortable also means cleanliness and orderliness of your dining room. Make sure that your furnitures are not broken or wobbling.

When customers remember what lovely time they had in your restaurant, they just might be a candidate for repeat customers.
