Welcome to Restaurant Edge Consulting
From Dishwasher to Franchise Builder
Chris’s story wasn’t one of overnight success—it was decades in the making.
He started in food service as a boy, helping at his mother’s sandwich shop, slicing lettuce and weighing out meat portions. At 16, he worked at McDonald’s, where his speed on the grill earned him the title of crew chief and a trip to McDonald’s training camp.
From there, Chris built his skills across Coconut Grove’s restaurants. He learned fine dining at Grove Isle, banquet service at the 700 Club, and bartending at Kaleidoscope. At Chart House, he worked every role—dishwasher, bus boy, waiter, butcher—before being offered management training at just 19. Instead, Chris sought more experience, eventually landing at Pizza Hut, where he became the fastest promoted manager in the company.
All of those jobs—each slice of tomato, each shift behind the bar, each day running a kitchen—became puzzle pieces in the bigger picture. By the time he launched CrepeMaker, Chris wasn’t just selling crêpes; he was building on decades of restaurant experience and lessons that no textbook could teach.
