Mongolian Tent
Grill on the shield




                      On the way of their journey, Mongolian
                      warriors sometimes grilled food on the
                      shield to save time on their journey all
                      the way to the Europe.
                      Ancient Mongolian believed that food
                      should not be cooked directly on fire.
Beijing Hot Pot
                  Beijing Hot Pot is built on
                   the same idea.
Modern Mongolian Grill Invented
by Mongolians in Taiwan in ’70s




                             Both hot pot
                             and Mongolian
                             Grill resemble
                             the structure
                             of Mongolian
                             tent.

Key Issues in the Case




Capacity constraint
High throughput time
Retaining unique customer experience
Alternatives: 1. Current Design
2. Implement proposed design changes
3. Optimize the proposed design
Decision Criteria & Analysis
Time Analysis
Cost Analysis
Additional cost
Fixed cost
$3200 for setting up additional food bar
$2100 for setting up additional oil and spice bar
$600 for additional counter space for cooking grill

Total fixed cost = $5900
Variable cost (per week)
Additional kitchen employee for an 8 hour shift on Thursday, Friday and Saturday
Additional cook in the busy period ( on Thursday, Friday and Saturday)

= 8 X 8 X3 + 5 X 12 X 3
= 192 + 180 = $ 372

Contribution Margin = Revenue – Variable cost = 1425 – 372 = $ 1053

Break even = Fixed cost / contribution Margin

= 5900 / 1053 = 5.6 weeks = 6 weeks approximately
Recommendations
Risk & Mitigation

   Potential bottleneck at grill?
    Hire more chefs
    Build another grill



   Reduced kitchen impact
    Inventory ?
     Just in-time inventory
Looking Forward


Attract customers on



off-peak hours
Other Options
We got this circle-by-circle idea from the Heaven Temple in Beijing,
which was once the capital of Mongolian Empire
Another easy-to-implement idea,
yet may cause confusion for consumers




Crossing Point
Thank You for listening!
