How to run a “fast pass” line for your top 3 dishes

In most restaurants, a few dishes create most demand. Instead of treating every order equally, design a fast path for your top items.

Pick the top three

Use sales data to identify your most ordered items. Build a station flow that can produce them quickly and consistently.

Pre-portion and pre-label

Make your fastest dishes even faster by prepping ingredients in service-ready portions.

Protect the fast lane

During rush, avoid custom requests that break flow. Offer simple add-ons rather than complex changes.
