Feel free to post your questions about delis here or on
rec.food.restaurants. As for www.dpreview.com it is not a
newsgroup in any way, shape, or form.

Thanks Shawn.... OK... Maybe dpreview isn't a "newsgroup" but it is a
great message board, bulletin board, community board, or whatever we want to
call it... the point I was making (minus my bad spelling) is that it's a
great place to discuss issues relating to photography with message boards
that individuals participate in just as we do here.

"Deli" is too ill-defined a topic, there are no Newsgroups for "cafeteria"
either... perhaps you should try the various "food" Newsgroups. So, what are
your delicatessen questions?

I'm thinking of opening a small sandwich shop and am currently developing a
business model. A couple areas of the plan (model) that I'm looking to talk
with others about is equipment comparisions and process's.

As an example, I need a large braising pan that tilts. I'm looking at either
a Vulcan Model VECTS12 or a Market Forge model 1200 or the R-1600G. These
are usually not stocked at the local restaurant supply store so I can't go
and physically inspect them. I believe that the Vulcan is a Hobart product
which is a brand name I recognize, but I know nothing about either of these
companies in regards to the quality and reliability of the product, and
customer support from the manufacturer. Also, there could be better or
equally good products out there at a better cost that I'm not aware of. So
I'm looking for input.

Also, (and keep in mind I'm thinking of a small drive-thru sandwich shop)
I'm thinking through the serving process. I would like to serve a dill
pickle spear with the sandwich, but because it's wet & "drippy" I need a way
to package it. It won't fit in a 6x6 sandwich box, so I'm wondering if
there's something like plastic or waxed paer "sleeves" out there. I've
never had a pickle served to me that way, so I assume not, also I've not
been able to find anything like that in my Google searches, so I thought
someone in the Deli business might know.

Thanks,

David

Yes there are waxed paper sacks/bags . I've Eaten French Fries out of them.
No clue as to who makes them.


A simple google search provides this site:

Anyone who has ever wrappped sandwiches commercially would know how to perform
the classic wrap that includes the pickle without it touching the sandwaich or
leaking. It's obvious you have no experience whatsoever in the sandwich shop
business. Unless you gain experience via meaningful employment you are doomed
to failure.

hahabogus,

Thanks for the advice. BTW, I do know how to use Google but Google isn't
the magic cure-all that people seem to make it. It is a great tool, but the
problem with "simple" searches is that you end up with simple results.
balpex is a good example, they show product groups and products they can
make, but don't show any specific products or provide ordering info. And...
they want you to sign up and become a member, but you can only be a member
if you've been in business for 3 years. As I indicated in my previous
message I'm not even in business yet. At this point I'm still working on a
plan.

FYI... Another good search tool for those in business is
www.thomasnet.com/home It's where I found several good sources such as
www.clearviewbag.com.

An even better tool is people talking to people, also known as networking.
I'll do my due diligence, but why spend hours & hours of Google time when
someone might know what it is I'm looking for and can point me where to go.
Saving hours of search time also saves me money. That's what newsgroups are
for.

David...

Great response. Instead of trying to be helpful, you point out my lack of
knowledge. You could of told me about the "classic wrap" but instead you
decided to try and put me down by telling me that I'm doomed to be a
failure. There's a lot of things in life I knew nothing about but ended up
being successful at.

What an ass....

Yeah, sucking dick.

Don't blame others for your lack of experience. Not only have you zero
experience in the food business you have zero tolerence for accepting
constructive criticism... you can't wrap a sandwhich and have no people skills
whatsoever (indicated by how you busted in here a loud-mouthed know-it-all),
you are not only doomed to failure, you ARE a failure/loser.

DavidJ, you ARE a NEWBIE PIECE of SHIT.

Umm... I'm not blaming anyone for having a lack of experience. And as far
as me busting in here as a loud mouth know it all... where did you come up
with that? I came in here asking questions. And where is the constructive
criticism you're talking about, was that the message that said I'm doomed to
failure? Also, are you the person I should model my people skills after?
I'll try to incorporate your charming charisma and language skills into my
vocabulary. BTW... I didn't realize wrapping sandwiches took that much
skill... Is it harder than engineering a nation wide fiber optic network?
Is it more difficult than managing the accounts for multi-billion dollar
companies? Is it harder than starting a non-profit corporation?

Success is determined by much more than simple experience of wrapping
sandwiches. Perseverence and hard work are the key ingredients to success.
Experience helps but is not always necessary, having the right attitude is
necessary. Maybe you should read some entrepreneurial success stories.

Have you visited other businesses that own them? Go to a town several
miles away and ask (or call first) to see how they do business.

Go to your local Small Business Development Center. They could steer
you in the direction of others they've helped. As long as you've shown
that you aren't going head-to -head against another shop, they would
prolly let you in on a few of their experiences. As to the SBDC, there
is more help available than you could ever imagine, and mostly all for
free. Visit them very very soon.

I own a bagel shop and have gotten LOADS of help from the SBDC and other
shop owners.

Look in your Yellow Pages for a paper goods supplier, or even call the
rep from Sysco or U. S. Foods. They all have access to tons of stuff
you've never seen readily available. Waxed bags are available in a
million sizes.

OTOH, I put my bagel sandwiches in styrofoam boxes and the pickle spear
goes in the same box, along with loose home-made bagel chips and a
wrapped candy. Haven't had a single complaint in 16 months. Pickles
are drippy, but a shake or two and the problem is solved for free.
Little niceties get to be expensive, but use the bags if you feel it
will enhance or differentiate your product.

Filter him or skip over his drivel. He has mnothing to add and will not

Hi Petey,

I started out with the local restaurant supply office here in town & they
had no idea what I was looking for, so I went to the elementary school to
find out what they were using. I figured I didn't pose any threat of
competition to them, so that's how I got to the point where I am. But I do
plan on visiting (and am in the process of) other similar establishments
here in the area.

Thanks for the advice on the Small Business Development Center. I hadn't
heard of them before. I did use S.C.O.R.E. on my last venture, but I wasn't
real impressed with the support they provided. They provided a lot of
encouraging nods, but no real substance to their advice. Maybe I just had a
bad group down here, but bottom line is I decided to not use them this time.

Also, thanks for sharing your thoughts & experience's. My thought process
was to use a small 6x6 sandwich box, the bag of chips and pickle would be on
the side if the customer wanted it. Maybe the 9x6 container would be a
better choice.... The sandwich, chips & pickle all go into one container.
The downside (minimal) is for the customer that only wants a sandwich, then
I still need to stock the 6x6 the sandwich boxes. I was trying to minimize
inventory and paper or plastic "sleeves" seemed to be a good idea... I'll
take a look at Sysco or U. S. Foods, maybe a solution I hadn't thought of
will appear.

Again, thanks for your input. It's been helpful :-)

A local deli does that..they just wrap the pickle in wax paper I think..or
maybe its parchment...works for the short term at least.
