    That “sorry buddy” when the silverware almost falls is so funny and true!😂

    The date example was a huge help. I often miss out on social queues due to growing up with hardly any social interaction on top of potentially being autistic, and as a new server it helps that you're showing both sides.

    I know it's an old video, but you never want to ask if they're still "working" on their meal. They're enjoying the food and experience, not clocking in to eat. Therefor, I find better verbs to use: Enjoying, savoring, relishing, etc. "Are we still enjoying our meal(s)?"

    • @RealServerTraining

      Yeah that's valid

      at a more casual place those words may sound silly though, "enjoying" is fine

    I'm not going to lie to you, I do pile them 😅 but the big question is how do you avoid the forks, spoons and knives from falling? Regardless of how I hold the plates, they still fall from them from time to time, which is embarrassing 🙄

    I never felt a welcome plate of food a few minutes before was an imposition when I was done eating. I think clearing plates is a subtle way of letting the patrons know it’s time to move along….

    I think I have been putting too much weight on my pinky finger. Can do four plates pre bussed and keep it classy. I always put the knife through the fork prongs, work's well. I love to aggressively clear when the function guests must leave. Nothing is left. Blowing out candles says a gruff, " goodbye. Now."

  • @Cole_pie
    @Cole_pie 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Instead of open arm taking plates off of the table, shouldn't you walk around the the other side of the table to minimize reaching over your customer(which makes them feel uncomfortable). Now if you have a booth against a wall obviously you can't do that. But I was thought that you walk around the table to get their plates. And likewise for a round table.

    • @RealServerTraining
      @RealServerTraining  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      yeah! absolutely walk around - this is more if we're against a wall/ booth or if it's just a super busy more casual restaurant. and ideally if I am reaching over guests, I serve guests on outside first so I'm not reaching over other plates.

      I don't try to make people leave -- I'm just quick to get plates when they're done eating. This often moves them along but they can stay a while if they want.

    At a formal restaurant you cannot clear any plates until everyone at the table is done.

    • @RealServerTraining
      @RealServerTraining  3 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      Correct. This training is not for fine-dining -- more for an American style, nice, but relatively casual restaurant.
