Purpose
The purpose of my proposal is to request authorization and funding for the purchase of a new toaster for the restaurant of healthy food.
Summary
The need in purchasing a new toaster has become prominent due to the increased demand of the clients in the qualitative and healthy food and a pressing need to expand the menu and introduce new dishes and recipes. The purchase of a toaster can strongly assist in meeting this requirement, since it offers a great variety of new cooking solutions for the restaurant of the healthy food. Therefore, I am going to suggest the purchase options of the toaster for the restaurant.
First, I am going to compare different models of the toasters, identify their properties and specialties and contrast the prices. I am going to look at three different models to choose the most optimal model for the restaurant. Then, I am going to establish the criteria for assessing the toasters, in accordance with the restaurant’s needs and possibilities.
In case of approval of the proposal, I will make the necessary researches, evaluation and purchase of the toaster within the budget of $349 (the price is based on the investigations of the on-line stores of the electric appliances). The restaurants should provide costs for the purchase and be ready for the additional expenditures, connected with the delivery and installation of the toaster at its place.
If approved, I will start the research and evaluation of the toaster models immediately and

In this paper I will compare my favorite restaurant, Olive Garden, to its most direct competition which in this case is Milestones Bar and Grill. These two restaurants are in competition because they target the same market and are located within one block of each other. Each restaurant is owned by one of top restaurant companies in North America. Olive Garden is owned by Darden Restaurants which also owns Red Lobster, Smokey Bones, Bahama Breeze, Longhorn Steakhouse, and Seasons 52. Cara Operations Ltd. is the owner of the Milestones chain as well as Montana's, Swiss Chalet, Coza, Kelsey's, and several others.

Nevertheless, the majority of customers are very satisfied with the amount of serving along with the quality of their meal as well as the price paid.

Together, they developed a new menu around freshness. Next, “wood-fire grilling” was introduced, as research showed it was the most preferred way of cooking seafood. This was a very effective way of repositioning the brand, as it helped to shift perceptions away from the fried foods of the past to the new fresh preparation methods. Furthermore, “grill masters” were introduced, and the position quickly became the most prestigious job in the restaurant. This was also highly effective, as it added a higher quality feel to the food, and served a dual purpose as the centerpiece of the marketing plan in 2011. In addition, a fresh fish menu was provided to consumers, separate from the main menu, which highlighted the daily catch. Finally, select ingredients were upgraded and restaurant locations were remodeled in order to strengthen the perception of top quality and freshness, while appealing to consumers other senses.

This proved to be a gold mine for its owner and stakeholders, and the analysis of this period from 2001 to 2003 shows exactly why. In this analysis, we will examine the success
