The U.S. Federal Appeals Court has terminated the federal "80/20" restaurant tip credit for tip-supporting tasks. 

The rule allowed employers to receive federal tip credit for employees that spend at least 80% of their shift working in a tip environment. Effectively lowering the restaurant's wage responsibility to a subminimum wage of $2.13/hr.

According to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, the 80/20 rule is "both arbitrary and capricious." Resulting in the rule being terminated as it is too vague and open to interpretation, with potential to harm restaurant staff.

📸 Size Matters in Online Ordering!

We all know that one photographer who wants to break out the macro lens and make everything look larger than life. But when it comes to menu photos, let’s not get carried away!

Keeping customer expectations in line with what actually arrives at their door is key. Sure, make your food look delicious, but don’t stray too far from reality. 

Remember, a satisfied customer is a repeat customer, while an overpromised burger that’s not-so-super-sized leads to disappointment (and fewer stars).

As food trucks increasingly adopt online ordering, their mobility introduces a unique set of challenges.

 Here are some of the key pain points:

1. Limited Counter Space
With only so much room, juggling 4 tablets, a POS, and printers can crowd out valuable food prep space.

2. Smaller Inventory Capacity
Running out of ingredients is more common, leading to potential refunds, chargebacks, and canceled orders.

3. Costly Web Services & Loyalty Programs
Branded ordering apps, websites, and loyalty programs can be expensive, especially for smaller operations.

Fortunately, Orders.co offers innovative solutions designed to address these specific challenges and streamline operations:

1. App Integration
Manage all service orders from one device, freeing up precious counter space.

2. Real-Time Inventory Updates

3. All-in-One Subscription

Offering value items and combos can be a game-changer for your restaurant. They not only boost sales but also enhance customer satisfaction and optimize inventory management.

Value items come in many forms—from specials to limited-time offerings—but what makes them truly effective, and how can you implement them?

1️⃣ Customer Perception of Value
- Customers love feeling like they're getting a great deal. Who doesn't enjoy getting more for less? 
2️⃣ Benefits for Your Restaurant
- Beyond boosting sales, value items can help move inventory and introduce customers to less popular dishes.
3️⃣ Key Strategies for Success
- The three pillars of effective value items are margins, pairings, and knowing your customer. Craft combos that resonate with your audience!

Ultimately, value items and combos will vary from business to business, but in today's restaurant climate, they're a powerful tool for driving traffic.

All restaurants can benefit from offering rotating specials, combo deals, or happy hour promos.
