Help! Lost in the Commercial Kitchen Maze

Okay, so here’s the deal: I’ve spent two decades making sure the front of house runs smoother than a latte art pour, but now I’m staring down the barrel of a commercial kitchen build. My new gig expects me to find a contractor who won’t turn my dream kitchen into a nightmare, and honestly, I’m lost. Google is a black hole of sketchy ads and vague reviews. Every recommendation from friends comes with a horror story attached. How do you even start? Is there a secret handshake for finding a contractor who actually gets food, not just drywall? If you’ve survived a kitchen build (and your sanity is intact), please drop your wisdom. I’ll take any tips—red flags, green flags, or just a list of questions I should be asking. Because right now, I’d trust a line cook with a blowtorch more than half these contractors. SOS from the other side of the pass. #CommercialKitchen #RestaurantLife #FoodBusiness #KitchenBuild #ContractorAdvice #Food #Foodie
