A restaurateur is a person who opens and runs restaurants professionally. Although over time the term has come to describe any person who owns a restaurant, traditionally it refers to a highly skilled professional who is proficient in all aspects of the restaurant business.
[edit] Etymology
The word "restaurateur" is borrowed (and lengthed) from the term restaurant. The French word restaurateur (same meaning) comes from the Late Latin term restaurator restorer and from the Latin term restaurare.[1][2][3][4]
