Training delivers excellence in product and performance, elevating a good restaurant into a great one. Training will keep the skills of its employees and management sharp. But in no other industry is its absence or presence as obvious as it is in the food service industry. It is hard to find good, qualified employees, and even harder to keep them. In addition, unemployment levels are low, and competition for qualified workers is tough. What's the answer? Training! Constant training and re-enforcement keeps employees and management sharp and focused, and demonstrates the company cares enough to spend time and subsequently money on them. And that's precisely what this encyclopaedic book will do for you -- be your new training manager. The first part of the book will teach you how to develop training programs for food service employees, and how to train the trainer. The book is full of training tips, tactics and how-to's that will show you proper presentation, and how to keep learners motivated both during and after the training.

It is very important that your kitchen staff learn and understand everything outlined in this restaurant kitchen manual. In so many cases, most cooks don't know time and temperature, food safety, shelf life dates, basic position training and etc. During the interview process, you may run into an application that appears to be awesome. The applicant will say what they think you want to hear, they talk the talk, but can they walk the walk. After you conducted a reference check you can decide if the applicant is a good fit for your restaurant. The next step is kitchen training. Everyone goes through kitchen training, whether they are experienced or inexperienced. You truly don't know if that applicant is on the up and up on their experience. Typically, experienced employees will learn faster than non-experienced employees and therefore will require less training days. Non-experienced employees will require more attention (TLC) and quite possibly extended training days.
