Okay, but not spectacular
While some stuff was useful from this book, for someone who has already been in the food service industry for several years now, it wasn't a large source of new information or ideas. This seems to be geared towards someone who seemingly has not run a restaurant before and/or has no idea how to manage employees.

Perfect book for restaurant managers!!
The Food Service Professional Guide to Waiter & Waitress Training will give an edge to food service and restaurant managers on how to encourage, enable, teach, plan and run a restaurant in the most effective ways. Every restaurant position is explained along with duties. Invaluable topics like scheduling software and helpful training websites are also explained. One aspect that was not heavily covered was the implementation of tablets in the food service industry and some topics seemed to be repeated. Valuable topics on interview tips for managers and ways to retain service staff, in a traditionally high turnover industry, were great. Suggestions for exit interviews and Creative Retirement Plans were also on the cutting edge. Perspectives on how to cross-train staff in different restaurant positions was another good tip. As a guide for managers and owners in the industry "The Food Service Guide to Waiter & Waitress Training" would be a perfect go-to guide to have on hand in the restaurant manager's office.

Written for America, but still good for guidelines.
Very American, but the basics are very good and it is easy to read.
