Black Seed Bagels meets the future of ordering

"Black Seed Bagels has become a critically acclaimed go-to bagel spot in New York City, with its executive chef and head baker, Dianna Daoheung, being nominated for two consecutive James Beard Awards. Her technique, which borrows baking techniques from Montreal, includes boiling the bagels in water with honey for a touch of sweetness."

"One of the ways Order Guide is able to streamline processes is through its ability to use AI to pull together a list of all the ingredients the shop uses. With over 50 items on Black Seed Bagels' menu, Order Guide generated a list of over 373 total ingredients, all the way down to the flour it uses for its bagels."

"To alleviate the manual burden of the procurement process, Square introduced Kliegman to a new release from Square: Order Guide. The new feature enables restaurants to streamline their procurement process, reduce food costs, and centralize vendor management."

Black Seed Bagels, founded a decade ago by Matt Kliegman and Noah Bernamoff, has grown to seven locations and become a critically acclaimed NYC bagel destination. Executive chef Dianna Daoheung, nominated for consecutive James Beard Awards, uses Montreal-inspired baking techniques including boiling bagels in honey-infused water. Managing procurement for over 50 menu items and 373 total ingredients proved tedious. Square's new Order Guide feature addresses this challenge by using AI to automatically identify all ingredients used in the restaurant, including those not directly listed on menus. This streamlines the procurement process, reduces food costs, and centralizes vendor management, significantly improving operational efficiency.
