The Menu The menu is going to be extremely simple but changing every day. We will keep a small group of constants on the menu and then feature a chef's recommendation that we plan to have 85% of meals ordering. This will help us to reduce waste and plan ingredients and purchasing.
Organic Ingredients The organic ingredient element will allow us to price to the extremely wealthy Internet entrepreneurs who are looking to spend an exorbitant amount of money to have peace of mind that their money is still coming back to themselves. We will be extremely ecologically conscious as well, and spread this across our literature. Ethnic Ingredients and Recipes Our chef will have great latitude in designing and producing menu offerings from many different Indian cultures. We will endeavor to procure all the traditional, authentic ingredients necessary to hold true to these varied and interesting cultural recipes.

7. Financial Plan
We expect to raise $30,000 of our own capital, and to borrow $100,000 guaranteed by the SBA as a 10-year loan. This provides the bulk of the start-up financing required. 7.1 Break-even Analysis Our break-even analysis is based on the average of the first-year numbers for total sales by meal served, total cost of sales, and all operating expenses. These are presented as per-unit revenue, per-unit cost, and fixed costs. We realize that this is not really the same as fixed cost, but these conservative assumptions make for a better estimate of real risk. Break-even Analysis
