    I am starting at a fine dining establishment. My question is, how can I learn more about the wine if I don’t actually drink alcohol? I have tried a lot of wine in the past so I am familiar with the different kinds but it has been a while and not all Chardonnay is the same.

    • @TheWaitersAcademy
      @TheWaitersAcademy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      For sure not all chardonay is the same :)
      Ask the guests about their experience and use that when you describe the wine for the next guests. You can taste wine without to drink it, if that is an option for you!

    • @TheWaitersAcademy
      @TheWaitersAcademy  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      YOu have the problem my wife has :)
      This is what I do! For example I don't like to drink white wines and I don't test every white wine that we have in restaurant to be able to sell it! I talk to my guests and I ask question:
      What do you think about that wine?
      What is the flavor, the body overall test?
      Then I use this to describe the wine to other guests!
      YOu can do the same! Ask your guests about their experience with the meat dishes and then use that as a selling point to your other guests! You don't lie to them this way and you do your job as a waiter!
      What do you think about that?
