We were delighted to contribute to the August issue of Dine Out magazine on how reducing emissions company-wide can be the single most important thing to save our planet. As our Managing Director, Juliane Caillouette Noble, comments in the piece: “Providing training and development is a key part of this. Your team needs to know why carbon reduction matters, what the biggest sources of emissions within the F&B industry are, how your company plans to tackle this and what role they themselves can play. Once they have an understanding of how carbon can be reduced across the business – from waste reduction to menu design – you might also consider offering incentives as you hit certain milestones in your progress towards net zero. Sustainability in hospitality means a thousand small decisions made by 100 different people, all adding up to a huge overall impact. Every little choice plays a role – from how early you turn on the burners and whether you leave the lights on in the bathroom, to how a chef designs the menu or whether a commis is wasting vegetable scraps. Cumulatively, these small acts can make a big difference.” It's uplifting to learn about firsthand examples from our accredited Food Made Good business, Comptoir Group, and from The Pony Group with their array of hospitality venues in southwest England.

Do you know that the knowledge of making a Caesar salad at the table has become quite rare, with 9 out of 10 people in any restaurant not knowing how to do it. This indicates a significant decline in this particular skill among restaurant staff, which is a missed opportunity for creating a unique dining experience. In one restaurant I was doing training I suggestion to incorporate table-side Caesar salad preparation on a weekly or monthly basis clearly had a significant positive impact on the restaurant. Training the waiters to perform this engaging task not only increased sales but also captured customer interest effectively.

Recently, I conducted a training session for a group of restaurant staff, providing them with practical examples of table etiquette specifically tailored for hotel industry students and newcomers in the field. Posture: Sit up straight with your elbows off the table. Keep your hands in your lap when not eating. Napkin Use: Place your napkin on your lap as soon as you sit down. Use it to dab your mouth, not to wipe it. Utensils: Use the utensils from the outside in, starting with the ones farthest from your plate. Forks are on the left, knives and spoons on the right. Chew with Mouth Closed: Avoid talking with your mouth full and chew quietly. Passing Food: Pass dishes to the right and offer food to others before serving yourself. Politeness: Say "please" and "thank you" when asking for food or passing items. Don’t Rush: Take small bites, eat at a moderate pace, and engage in pleasant conversation. Finishing: Place your utensils parallel on the plate when you're done, signaling that you’ve finished eating. These simple manners make meals more pleasant and respectful for everyone at the table!
