I help bars and hotels improve profit, speed, and consistency with practical operating systems: costing and inventory templates, SOPs, online training, and service-ready menu development.
I am the founder of The Double Strainer, a mixology and bar-operations platform focused on real service execution. It is where I publish practical frameworks for bartenders and bar managers: costing logic, prep systems, station standards, and consistency workflows that can be implemented immediately.
Experience across Europe and Southeast Asia, including projects with IHG (Hotel Indigo) and Hyatt (Andaz Prague). Top 50 Bartender, Hennessy My Way Global (2024).
What I deliver
• Templates (Excel/Google Sheets): costing, pricing, inventory, ordering, PAR, variance control, QC checks
• Online training + SOPs: specs, station setup, speed, consistency, upselling, service standards
• Consulting: menu engineering, COGS and GP optimization, workflow fixes, pre-opening support
• Menus (one of the services): original cocktail and zero-proof menus built for real service with service-ready spec sheets
Portfolio
Real examples of spec sheets, templates, and SOP formats are available in my Portfolio section.
