Recipe costing
Costing each menu item and comparing it against its selling price and margin.

Restaurant and Café Accounting in the UAE
A thin margin that leaks through details nobody measures. We build the cost control that protects it.
A restaurant can be full every night and still end with a weak margin. The cause is rarely sales; it is cost that moves daily and goes unmeasured: an item whose cost has passed its price, wastage never recorded, and stock that leaks between counts.
Restaurant accounting differs from every other activity for exactly this reason: you do not only need a monthly report, you need daily operational control over cost.
We build that control from the ground up and connect the POS to the books, so the numbers you decide on are current rather than late.
What we handle for you
Wastage measurement
Recording wastage daily and tracking the ratio, because what is not measured cannot be reduced.
Stock count cycle
Regular counts of raw materials reconciled against expected consumption to surface differences.
POS integration
Connecting sales to accounting entries, ending late manual reconciliation.
Branch profitability
Reading each branch separately instead of an aggregate that hides the loss-making one.
Tax compliance
VAT returns and correct treatment of service charges and delivery.
Common mistakes in this sector
- Items selling below cost, often the most popular ones
- Unmeasured wastage surfacing in the year-end result
- Stock differences with no documented explanation
- A POS system disconnected from accounting
- A loss-making branch disappearing inside aggregate numbers
