About Us

Hi, my name is Giuseppe De Carlo.

I was trained in Hotels in the early sixties when service was still at its peak. I worked as a waiter and in management all my life. In my capacity as Manager I trained 100s of waiters including the teaching of Gueridon service at the Bennelong restaurant in the famous Sydney Opera House.

I believe that I am qualified to teach as I have worked as a waiter in very fine restaurants and trained waiters while in management. I utilised these methods when I opened my first restaurant, The Abbey Restaurant in 1977. Subsequently other entrepreneurs followed my lead and created other Abbeys in the USA and other countries.

In my manual, I will show you from A-Z all the requirement you will need to be ready for service in (all) establishments) including Bar work. Restaurant services today all have one thing in common - set up a table, take orders and carry plates - that is the basic service. True, you can learn this in two hours but the etiquette, system and method knowledge, is something no-one teaches. That usually comes with experience; I will share with you my knowledge, how to explain and understand food, wine, the bar, system and method of work, so that you may have an understanding of the above.

How to silver serve and table cooking as these two services still do come up in restaurants from time to time. I will give examples on how to understand menus about food cooking methods and beverage wines, so that your explanations of the product you are going to serve is delivered with confidence like a professional. If you want to learn in a way that will set you apart from the rest, this is it, AND THIS COMPLETE MANUAL IS JUST $1.00 !

The manual is yours, you can download it now, Why? Because I regard this as a thank you for what the hospitality industry had given me.
