The fifth chair
An interesting story about hospitality:
"On this premises I'd like to tell you a little story that occurred to me a short while ago when I was visiting the beautiful city of Trieste with my wife and few friends. (..)
Our research soon produced a typical trattoria owned by an old couple, with 25-30 seats, husband in the kitchen, wife is in the room - and you immediately notice it. The interiors' decorations, the courteousness were a clear sign of a woman's touch hence we felt at home the moment we walked in. But something weird caught my attention. Sitting at the rounded table set for four people, I noticed something unusual: five chairs for four people…I couldn't figure out why was that and when I looked at the rest of the room I was really intrigued since all the tables presented the same layout. That's not a mistake - I thought - there must be something related to the service."
Read the whole story at Serving is a supreme art.

Megafactories – Illy Coffee
One of my favorite brands is Illy caffè! I love the promotion of their quality and sustainability, it was a big inspiration for me when I was working as QESH-engineer for a local coffeeroaster. In this interesting documentary you see the fascinating world of Illy Caffè
And if you understand Italian or just want to see some nice images of Florence, Illy has made this movie to promote their 'artists of taste' with the beautiful barista Paula of Odeon Bistro

Dinner For One
The sketch presents the 90th birthday of elderly upper-class Englishwoman Miss Sophie, who hosts a celebration dinner every year for her friends Mr Pommeroy, Mr Winterbottom, Sir Toby, and Admiral von Schneider. The problem is that due to Miss Sophie's considerable age, she has outlived all of her friends, and so her equally aged manservant James makes his way around the table, impersonating each of the guests in turn. Miss Sophie decides on appropriate drinks to accompany the menu served by James, who finds himself raising (and emptying) his glass four times per course. That takes its toll, increasingly noticeable in James's growing difficulty in pouring the drinks, telling wine glasses from vases of flowers, and refraining from bursting into song. (source)
The crucial exchange during every course is:
James: The same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?
Miss Sophie: The same procedure as every year, James!
As CrazyWaiter it's fun to impersonate people who are not sitting at the table. Have fun!

The name of the guest
Sometimes when you don't know a table number or people move around in your café you put a "name" on the bill. But don't forget to change it to their real names or erase it before giving it to the guest. 
CrazyCooking in a dishwasher
Unbelievable, but this CrazyChef is cooking in a dishwasher. So if your steamer isn't working, there's always a solution!
Laying table cloths
This week I had a collegue who was fighting with the table cloths. No need to, just know how to do the trick!
And the video

A Serving Tray for mr. Y
I wished that I had this for some collegues in the past. No, no... no names mr. Y 
You can order it here for € 59,95 (USD 76,19)
Often it is difficult to carry a full tray of drinks without spilling or tipping them. Besides that the tray becomes often too heavy so it is better to carry it with both hands. The Serving Tray from Royal VKB keeps itself in balance. Hold the frame at the top "T" handle with just one hand and you can now walk around confidently with a full tray. With the your free hand you can, for example, open the door or serve the drinks from the tray.
Thanks Mr. Y for the tip!
