As I said in my last blog I will try and give you advice on servers knowledge. tuday I will give you some inserts on wines from my book
How to present and pour the wine.
Wines must be served in the proper fashion so you will need to learn the following technique. Approach the host when he is ready to choose the wine and take the order.
Whether it is a red or white wine, have a serviette folded in the middle in…

Hi I have been speaking with student servers, helping them on how to set up a table, how the room shold be geometrically correct, and approach to work. up to here they do well, but the next step worries them, food? when we discuss problems that they forsee, I get questions?
I dont know anything about food, wines, bar drinks? I understand their problems I had them for years, as I explain food first, they seem to understand the logical explanation that I give, which took me years to…

Dining experience
Last night after dinner was finished, the usual question was asked – “how do you make this dining experience look so casual and easy?”
Well, I said I usually sit down, have a cup of coffee, a few Amaretti biscuits and start to think.
First I plan a three course menu I would like to prepare and then I write down all the ingredients I require. Preparation takes the longest time. Three days before,I do the purchasing and when I have everything together I…

- Hi Giuseppe here, I just looked at Garibaldi. re food knowledge for waiters, I will agree fun does relax a person, I am not sure about it having learning retention. I belive learning has its plus and minuses,
if teachers cut out all the unnecesary padding which makes learning difficult, when you teach a student on how eo explain food, take the mystic out of it, make it simple, tell him all food can only be cooked six ways.
(1) steam or boil,
(2) deep fry,
(3) shallow fry, sauteed,
(4) stew,
(5) grill,
(6) roast,
now by knowing this, they can take a cookbook, look at a picture and aks them to discribe on how the main and vegetables are cooked in the picture, you will find that theyr understanding of cooking is a lot better after you explain the above, then explain to them how to explain a dish, firstly they have to ask the chef on how a dish is produced, a salmon oven roasted, with a lemon butter sauce, is easy, a roasted chicken with asparagus and a cream sauce, a filet mignon topped with a grilled garlic chiili mushroom, or in a pan we add olive oil, a touch of garlic, chilli, we had a few, calamari, prawns, mussels, scallops, simmer in white wine, we add chopped parsly and sautee for three minutes add cooked pasta, voila spaghetti Marinara. in other words explain the food the way the chef prepares it, make sure they learn the menu well it is not difficult, just learn three dishes per day, and use your personality when you explain a dish, I am not on utube otherwise iwould gladly show you,
wine is the same there are only six in America mayby seven, grape variety in reds or whites, what imakes it dificult is remembering the names of the vineyard, or houses which produce wines. Excuse the spelling Giuseppe
