A recent article in The Motley Fool shines a light on the projected growth of Gen, highlighting our profitability and guest experience. Jon Quast writes, "With Korean barbecue, diners cook their food themselves at the table. Gen Korean BBQ offers unlimited food at set prices, which can contribute to guest satisfaction." 🍴 He also goes on to say, "Another interesting thing about this company is that it designs and installs its own ventilation systems for its tabletop grills. This keeps costs lower and increases the speed at which it can grow: It's not waiting on specialized third-party providers to build out a restaurant."
