Many chefs came to North America as a result. – In 1784, Thomas Jefferson spent five years as envoy to France, and brought a French chef to the White House when he became president.

Classifications of Restaurants • There is not a single definition of restaurant classification. Most experts agree there are two main categories – independent and chain restaurants. Other categories include fine dining, quick service, ethnic, family, dinner house, occasion, casual, etc.

• Some restaurants may fall into more than one category. For instance, a restaurant can be both ethnic and quick service, such as Taco Bell.

Classifications of Restaurants • Individual restaurants are typically one or more owners who are usually involved in the day-today operation of the business.

• Chain restaurants comprise a group of restaurants, each identical in market, concept, design, service, food, and name. Part of the marketing strategy is to remove uncertainty from the dining experience.
