Run your restaurant on numbers and standards
Free courses, exercises, and community for operators — hiring, food cost, checklists, and the operating rhythm that well-run restaurants share.
Three checkpoints. Ten minutes each.
Three short checkpoints on the three places restaurant profit leaks: food cost, labor, and a P&L that shows up too late. Each one ends with a ten-minute task on your own numbers.

Courses
Taught by operators, not theorists
Mastering Leadership
Managing up, alignment, feedback, conflict, burnout — leading a restaurant team that lasts.
Restaurant Fundamentals
Prime cost, food cost, labor, sales, menu design and engineering — the numbers every operator must command.
Recruiting & Staffing
Hire for loyalty, not the resume. Built around the Garde Recruiting 101 studio series.
Service & Hospitality
From practical serving basics to raving fans: elevated service at every role, busser to owner.
Checklists & Daily Ops
Daily, weekly, monthly — how well-run restaurants actually use Garde. The customer onboarding track.
Two modules a week, Mondays and Thursdays at 10 AM PT, and a new course every two weeks. Enroll and you get the alert the moment it drops.

The courses are free for everyone. Membership opens everything else — the community, the cookbooks, vendor perks, capital introductions, weekly calls, and certificates — and only to operators we review by hand. No vendors, no pitching.
