Re s ta u ra n t D a i l y N e ws Tu e s d a y, Au g u s t 1 9 , 2 0 1 4 4 CONVENTION CENTER FOODSERVICE OPERATIONS SAVE MONEY WITH DAYMARK Savor… Long Beach is the catering arm of Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center, which supports the facility's events and concessions with an extensive menu of innovative food concepts for thousands of guests weekly. Long Beach's Director of Culinary, Rosie Romo, had been working with DayMark Safety Systems for several years as the preferred supplier of 2-inch by 1-inch labels used to identify various ready-to-eat meals prepared and served at the convention center. The custom labels were pre-printed with the conven- tion center's logo and more than 50 food item variations at any given time. In 2013, Long Beach was mandated to add ingredient information to each retail food item label. The food service team quickly realized that there would be additional cost to print larger labels, and was also concerned with the cost to inventory potentially discontinued and obsolete labels should product offerings change, as they often did. At the same time, DayMark intro- duced the 9700 label terminal, which allows food prep kitchens to print food rotation labels and other labels on demand. With the DayMark 9700's cus- tom menu editor, two-printer configura- tion and drop-in label loading features, food prep staff can easily and efficient- ly print labels up to 2 inches wide, with virtually no limit on length. Barcode, nutrition and ingredient information are also professionally displayed on this HONEY SMOKED FISH: A COST-EFFECTIVE, MONEY-MAKING PROTEIN FOR YOUR MENU When Honey Smoked Fish Corporation refers to low protein cost, you might be asking: exactly what does that mean? It means that the Honey Smoked Salmon is a cost-effective protein for you to incor- porate into your menu, and if used prop- erly, can make you money! The Honey Smoked team feels con- fident in saying this because of its one- of-a-kind smoking process which allows the company to lock in all the valuable omegas and moisture, concentrating the flavor into each bite. When all is said and done, something like one to three ounces to excite any menu item. The company doesn't cook it out but rather lock it in, achieving the perfect balance of smoke. Honey Smoked Fish Corporation likes to advertise lightly smoked flavor, which is not overpowering at all, creating a com- bination of health and taste. Think about it: you can take one ounce of the Honey Smoked Salmon at approxi- mately 0.85 cents an ounce, create any num- ber of appetizers or salads, and price it at a very favorable food cost margin. Your cus- tomers will be thrilled because of the taste and healthy value-added experience. You will be thrilled to be providing an outstand- ing meal choice with a bargain margin. Honey Smoked Fish does one thing and one thing only – make the world's finest hot lightly smoked salmon.
