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- (Continued on Page 32) Prof Builds Better Battery FRUIT CUP, NICE OR SOAP, CHOICE OF POTATO SALAD, YEGETABLE, BREED BRIM A STICKS, COFFEE OR TEA, =ICE OF DESSERT (Strawberry Mesmer, Mr Pan r grille la Crew Oa Niel er ALL SERVED ANY HOUR!
