Challenge

Inconsistent and Inefficient Training in Fast-Food Operations

Farmer Boys, a Califoria-based restaurant chain, needed a more effective way to train kitchen staff. Traditional onboarding methods were inconsistent, leading to errors, food waste, slower service, and difficulties in maintaining quality standards during peak hours.

“Onboarding was inconsistent, leading to errors, food waste, and slower service.”

Solution

VR Kitchen Training Simulator

OneBonsai created a VR training module replicating the full burger and breakfast preparation process in a virtual kitchen. Trainees can practice step-by-step procedures for cooking, assembly, and quality control in a safe, repeatable environment.

Approach

Realistic and Scalable Simulation

The VR environment mirrored real kitchen workflows, allowing employees to build muscle memory and confidence before working in a live setting. The training was designed to be scalable, so multiple staff members could be onboarded quickly and consistently across different restaurant locations.

“I learned how to prepare orders quickly without wasting ingredients.”

Outcome

The VR training reduced onboarding time, improved order accuracy, and minimized food waste. Staff became more confident and efficient, leading to higher-quality service and stronger operational performance across Farmer Boys locations.
