A comprehensive training guide to modern food and beverage service. It explains, with the aid of illustrations, the technical and inter-personal skills today's waiters require in all types of establishment, from casual bistros and coffee bars to formal dining-rooms. Three of the 17 chapters are devoted to beverages - beverage equipment, products and service. There is a chapter on function operations. The extensive glossary explains food and beverage items and culinary words and phrases from French and other cooking traditions world-wide, from America to Asia, and including some Australian bush foods. It will enable waiters to understand and explain modern menus with confidence. Throughout the book, emphasis is placed on the importance of all aspects of good service - product knowledge and communication, personal, organizational, and technical skills. This is a common sense guide to modern service, not a repetition of outworn traditions.
