Breaking Bread... So You Can Make Some "Bread"

Hey y’all hey!

 

I'm Kimberly Parris (Kimi for short!): chef, restaurant consultant, and the person you call when you have a great food idea and no idea how to turn it into a sustainable business.

The "Tea"

With 18 plus years in restaurant management from Whole Foods to Eataly, almost two decades as an entrepreneur, and a track record of helping an idea go from a pipe dream to “open for business”, I've consulted on everything from established names to first-time restaurateurs building from scratch. 

 

I bring the same energy to a one-woman pop-up, as I do to a restaurant franchise concept.

How We Work Together

The Sunday Prep

A weekly retainer for restaurateurs who need an ongoing thought partner to help them develop their menus, troubleshoot their operations structure, strategize on staffing, or just the stuff that comes up every week and needs a steady hand. 

3-month minimum contract required.

The Recipe Book

 A deep-dive project engagement where I build out your full operating playbook, from concept development, menu architecture, SOPs, financial modeling, the whole shebang. Offered in two tiers depending on scope, payable across four milestones. 

Project is a 60-day engagement. 

If you're a restaurateur who is in the pre-opening stage, in the process of pivoting, or just tired of guessing, and you want someone who's been on both sides of the pass… let's talk.

The Family
Meal

A hands-on, pre-opening engagement — I come on-site in the weeks before launch to train your team, stress-test service, and make sure opening night feels like the hundredth night, not the first.

 

Scoped individually based on timeline, scope, and travel — let's talk specifics on a call.

WAIT! Before you do anything else...

Even if you're pretty sure what you need as a business, let's take 15 minutes, on me, and chat about it first. It's the perfect way to make sure we're a mutual fit!
