Im a server assistant. Hope to become server one day 🙏 Making money is nice, but creating a unique experience is even better. For example, i would go the extra mile and offer to serve them their sides on the plate with their entrée. Especially when everything is a la cart! I'm trying my best to split it individually, so i can be one step ahead in clearing the table, along with having everyone enjoy themselves with no extra effort.
Thats great! You must love what you do and helping others to have a wonderful experience is admirable!
Thank you sir so much excellent explanation

“Are you going to the opera later?”

Nice channel and very helpful. But do servers work on tips in Sweden?
Servers get tips in sweden but the swedish culture is not massivly for this.
An average servers makes 300 euro per month in tips here after taxes. (Tips are taxed like regular income)
❤❤❤😊
I learned to call all women regardless of age 'miss' if they're not obviously with their husband. They're always happy to hear it, and I'm never offending anyone by saying "Mrs." and having them snap that they're not married or whatever.
Thank you for sharing.
Calling Ladies ”Miss” is great I think
🙏🔥
Please explain how to prepare for the table for the morning or evening please a to z on table
Will do!
3:00 maybe I'll move to Sweden soon🤔
Nooooooo they never tip you !😢 enough experience
Can you do a video of different bodies of wine😭😭 I just started a fine dining and I’m so new

Hello Ricky ponting😭😆
If a guest is not a very... informed person and asks for your opinion for your lowest cut of steak... how would you describe it without saying it's tough and cheap? Obviously I would introduce my favorite such as a ribeye or strip after I described the least desirable cut. But how do I tactfully describe it?
I would phrase the cheap cut like: ”this steak is lean, low on fat and has a firmer texture compaired to the others.
And with this steak I would recommend xxxx sauce to elevate the experience.”
❤👍🏻✌🏼
I've been curious. Do you offer to shake guests' hands during your introduction? Because I'm not sure if that's something I should avoid or not. Thanks for the great video btw!
Sometimes the guests want a good relationship with the server.
But you can tell when you make eye contact if the guests are up for a formal introduction.
Most of my regulars want hugs now
It was my understanding that you should clear plates as soon as the guest is done with them, and not leave anything on the table that the guests don’t need like empty bb plates, finished entrees. You say I should leave the entree plates on the table until the last guest finishes chewing?
Leave the plates until the whole party / table is done eating. After clearing all the starters you can clear bread plates, oils and such before the main course arrives and top up wines.
On a table of 20 people are you going to take the plates the second every person finishes leaving half the guests still eating and everyone else with an empty cover?
Im curious to know which country you work in?
@@waitertheresmore I work on the east cost of the United States. I have two jobs, one in an upscale Taphouse, and the other in fast casual. I’m relatively new to the industry, only working for 2 years, but I’m hoping to break into fine dining once my resume is more complete. My fast casual job has smaller sized tables, and I find that guests appreciate me clearing plates as they finish. We also don’t do multiple course meals there. The taphouse also has us clear dishes as the guests finish. We do ask if it’s okay though and obviously feel the situation.
Being able to adapt is key.
If the guest prefer that you clear as you go then thats what you need to do.
Many fine dining restaurants that want to innovate will break the rules and go their own way.
The two jobs you have are good for learning upselling and stess management that will come in handy once you start in fine dining.
Good luck!
May I ask is it ok to ask guest questions or how do you make conversation that won’t put them under discomfort
You can ask the following:
How was your day?
Is it your first time in this restaurant?
Give a compliment about their clothes (but only if you mean it)
Sir,
Are you working as a waiter? If you don't know how to speak English with the guest at that time, what to do?
I do speak English, and you should too!
Your tie is in well? " In position "
Yeah sometimes🤣
Ain't no way I'm going on a date and this mf starts asking me questions about my day.
I will notice your body language and be your wing man
This is literally teaching how to behave like a videogame NPC. NPCs also follow scripts with conditional variations and an emulation of emotion. In this case, the game is trying to take money from the pockets of visitors by making them consent. In other words, visitors at such places are actually experiencing a live simulation of social reality, exactly like a video game, in which everyone around them is following scripts with the sole goal to take their money.
This is a valid perspective although it leans towards the negative side.
Yes this is a suggestion of what you could say if your unsure but as time goes by all waiters develop their own style of talking to guests.
Yes the guests pay money but they are also provided a service because if they were just hungry they would cook and eat at home.
In Sweden man and women know their gender? Sounds nice!
Yeah they know. For now anyways
You seem to be the one who confused about gender lmao.
Why would I subscribe before I've heard what you have to say?
