resolutions. The following
are a few we wish restau-
rant folks would make and
keep every year:
It would make dining out
much more pleasant and re-
laxing if waitresses and
waiters would refrain from
repeatedly asking custom-
ers if they're ready to order
their meal when they've
asked for at least 10 min-
utes to enjoy their cocktails.
On a recent visit to a new
seafood spot in West Bloom-
field we estimated our
over-zealous waitress in-
quired at least six times if
we were ready to order
when we specifically said
we wanted 15 minutes of
quiet conversation over our
dry martinis. It's tough
enough having to be on
schedule at work, so un-
winding is important.
We wish waitresses
would make a pact not to
introduce themselves to
their patrons in certain
situations. It can be con-
fusing.
Here's one example: A
group of office workers
dropped into a Birmingham
restaurant for drinks. "I'm
Jean and I'll be serving you
until my sister-in-law Jane
takes over," said the
friendly waitress.
After one round, Jane
came over to the table and
explained she was replacing
Jean who is her husband's
brother's wife and both were
married before.
While the party of six was
trying to figure out that one,
another four joined the
group and didn't know Jean
from Jane. The big question
was, "Which sister-in-law
gets the tip?"
Restaurateurs may
think it's a great market-
ing idea to offer a menu
with 57 varieties of meals.
But if they can't put these
choices in a condensed
version, managers
should instruct em-
ployees serving meals to
give diners more than
two minutes to make up
their minds. Unleos a cuso<
tomer has taken a cqurse.
in speed reading, it takes
several minutes to peruse
a 10-page bill of fare and
decide what to order.
•
Another pledge we wish
managers would make is to
caution waiters and wait-
resses against rapidly rattl-
ing off the list of specials of
the day. Many run that list
by you so fast you forget the
first item before you hear
the last. It's easier to simply
order from the regular
menu.
It would be nice if restau-
rant personnel resolved not
to pull a disappearing act
before and after the first cup
of coffee is served. In some
busy dining spots, obliging
busboys bring hot coffee to
the table. But they often
forget the cream. By the
time coffee drinkers who
didn't like it black attract
someone's attention, the
brew is te_Rid. And getting a
second cup is a real chal-
lenge. The restaurant busi-
ness is tough. Anyone
thinking of opening an eat-
ing spot without knowing
what he's doing should re-
solve not to rush into it ex-
pecting to strike it rich.
In a small restaurant,
the owner-manager is the
business and success or
failure depends on him.
No matter how much
specialized help he hires,
in the end he must make
decisions and set
policies. Management
requires many skills.
That's why people with
long experience as res-
taurant employees some-
times fail when they try to
operate their own.
Speaking of decisions and
policies, it would be a good
idea for all owner-managers
tc put their heads together
with architects and come up
with noise-reducing ceil-
ings. When acoustics are
bad, the best food can't be
appreciated in the clamor.
Every potential re-
staurateur should resolve to
read Dun & Bradstreet. Ac-
cording. to D & B studies,
most business failures come
within two years and are
caused by shortcomings and
weaknesses in manage-
ment.
It should be obvious to
folks in the eatery business
that they can't sacrifice
quality for the sake of price
and keep customers. But
they also have to avoid pric-
