But most restaurants do not fail because of bad food. They fail because of decisions made long before the first customer walks in. In this episode, we sit down with Zorawar Kalra, the founder behind some of India’s most successful restaurant brands like Farzi Cafe, Pa Pa Ya, and Louis Burger. He breaks down why restaurants fail, how innovative dishes are created, and how pricing really works in the food business. We dive into market research, choosing the right location, building strong teams, and the values that scale brands across cities. He also shares why he made an early bet on sushi, and how one wrong location taught him a hard lesson. If you want to understand how great restaurant brands are actually built, this episode is a must watch.
