4.0 out of 5 stars Bar & Beverage Operation was a true find., January 26, 2006

This review is from: The Food Service Professional Guide to Bar & Beverage Operation: Ensuring Success & Maximum Profit (The Food Service Professional Guide to, 11) (The Food Service Professionals Guide To) (Paperback)

I never worked behind the bar, so I approached it with a bit of apprehension when developing my own establishment. Bar & Beverage Operation was a lifesaver. I would have been purchasing any old blender, instead of the industrial strength stainless steel version. The book also taught me the importance of rotating glassware. I never considered the repercussions of worn glassware breaking in a customer's hand. This book is full secrets from the tactics employees use to steal profits to tips on making the waiting room/line less of a chore. Bar & Beverage Operation was a true find.
