After winning Masterchef the professionals and gaining my own Michelin star which I held for 4 years before giving it up for love, I relocated to Liverpool and decided it was time to open my own restaurant using epic ingredients from the north of the uk.
Bringing a super relaxed dining experience to Liverpool but with with a Michelin star chef, I will bebehind the stove every day. Its about not being put under pressure by investors that don't give a shit about you - I have been there first hand I I feel like it's my time to shine in the restaurant world again. Affordable fine dinning and I bloody hate the word 'fine' - but expect big flavours, big smiles, great service and a restaurant that people love coming back to! Not your average night out for din dins!
We plan to open a intimate restaurant called Röski in the heart of the city of Liverpool on Rodney street. It is already operating as a a very successful restaurant at present which is currently ranked no. 5 on trip advisor. My business parter and I have secured the lease. We are asking for £60,000 to kit out and furnish the restaurant and kitchen and renovate a downstairs store room into a private dining room for up to 8 people. We plan to operate and trade 5 days a week so that we can maintain levels of consistency for all our diners and keep wage costs to a minimum. We aim to be one of the best restaurants in the country in the hopes that people will come from all areas of the U.K to dine with us. We will be serving a one of a kind dining experience for up to 40 covers with a taster inspired menu that will change on a weekly basis depending on what we can source the very best, fresh local ingredients from local suppliers. Roski is going to be a family run restaurant with Anton piotrowski (Masterchef: The Professionals winner and Michelin star holder) cooking behind the stove and working alongside his partner who will be running the front of house.
Our goal is to run a weekly changing taster menu; A 4 course taster menu at £40.00 and accompanying wine flight at £30 A 7 course taster menu at £70 with an accompanying wine flight at £50 A pre-theatre menu that runs from 5 till 6 o'clock- three courses and a glass of bubbles for £30. (This offer will also run this at lunch for those who wish to have more of an express lunch)
Our opening hours are going to be Wednesday - Saturday lunch from 12.00 to 2.30 And evening hours Tuesday to Saturday 5.00 till 9.30 for dinner.
Liverpool food scene has come on leaps and bounds over the last four years, with a huge rise in independent restaurants.
It currently ranks 2nd to London on people who spend the most on dining out.
We currently have 75 million tourists visiting Liverpool every year.
Our main competition in the industry is The Art School Restaurant however it is more expensive by about 15% than our proposed menu and the restaurant currently has an 85 % occupancy. We do have some chain restaurants in Liverpool with celebrity chefs attached but there are currently no Michelin star restaurants in Liverpool or Manchester.
As a Michelin star chef myself and a Masterchef: The Professionals winner, I have both a U.K fowling and global following. With over 11.5k on Instagram 5.6k on twitter. My social media profile is much greater than any other chef in Liverpool. I want to make Liverpool the food capital of the north and put it on the culinary map. The long term goal is to have the only 2 Michelin star restaurant in Liverpool.
I've undertaken a lot of research into this project, speaking with contacts within the industry who've been successful and learning as much as I can from my peers. The business plan we have written is comprehensive and we hope that it covers everything we need to think about in order to give ourselves the best chance of success.
