COVID-19 help for hospitality
Restaurant & kitchen management software
All successful businesses perform well by focussing on one area that is often overlooked: management resources. Burning the candle at both ends isn't an effective way to achieve long-lasting positive results and there is great wisdom in knowing that a little help in just the right areas can yield massive results. My Local Foodie is focussed entirely on achieving net positive results for hospitality companies all across Australia with restaurant management software.
Restaurant management software
Our speciality is in identifying the areas of your kitchen or restaurant that limit efficiency and inflate expense. We're not talking about cost-cutting, we're talking about maximising profit by helping you do what you do best and deliver an incredible service to your customers that will see them coming back for more and praising your business from the rooftops. We help you trim the fat by giving you unrivalled access to detailed reports that take the pulse of your operation and give you a firm handle on menu and recipe costing to get your COGs down and profits up. Armed with our restaurant management software we help you evaluate and adjust your operation to improve the service you deliver. Within four months you'll see solid results that last.
Kitchen management software
Our kitchen management software makes it easy for our clients by sourcing outstanding produce from local suppliers and streamlining your food and beverage systems. We take a deep dive into your business to get a strong sense of how it works, what it excels at and what it needs. Then we train all your staff on our 120 Day program so everybody is singing from the same hymn sheet and working together efficiently. We don't change the core of what you do, rather, we find the best possible way to do it and show you how. No one knows your business better than you, but it can take an outside perspective coupled with 13 years experience working with different kitchens to see where things can improve. By streamlining your admin with our kitchen inventory management software and relying on our suppliers to deliver the best food available to your kitchen you create hours in the day you never knew you could have.

Tim Salisbury
CEO
Fonda’s a familiar face at My Local Foodie. His first job in hospitality was pouring beers in the Public Bar at Sarah Sands Hotel, the infamous Brunswick pub that was renamed Bridie O’Reilly in 1997. His favourite food comes from another institution- MoVida- and their dish of slow braised Pedro Xeminez beef cheeks with cauliflower puree.
Fonda Kourmadias
Senior Buyer
Dan’s come a long way since working as a kitchen hand at Zagames Royal Hotel in Upper Ferntree Gully. His favourite moment at My Local Foodie was David Tomsic’s loud declaration “I love you guys! You saved me over $1 million in food costs last year”.
Daniel Hansen
Sales Manager
Jules grew up in the farming paradise of East Gippsland, working as a waitress and kitchen hand at Italian Bistro in her home town. So it’s no surprise that her favourite farmers she works with are her family! For over 40 years, and three generations, her family have been ethical and sustainable beef and dairy farmers.

Learning
Growing up in country NSW, Gabs was spoilt with home grown, handmade and locally sourced produce on the dinner table every night. Owing to her Italian roots, every meal is a family occasion that can take days to prepare. Needless to say, her favourite meal is anything made with love, that is shared together with family and friends!
