BUHAY FOOD CONSULTANT ...

Hai akala ng mga tao I live the glamorous life, syempre consultant ka you live in the hotel hindi mo kailangang problemahin ang pagkain mo isang tawag lang yan. Pero here are the unknown facts of a Food Consultant....

MYTH #1 Hindi lahat ng pagkain sa menu pwede mo orderin...

Akala nila lahat ng mamahalin at masasarap sa menu pwede mo orderin of course not baka tumaas ang food cost ng hotel kasi hindi mo naman yun binabayaran then akalain na lang ng mga staff na patay gutom ka at can't afford kang kumain ng may bayad so sometimes you opted to order the cheapest on the menu... Ok lang yun para at least hindi na lalo pang lumaki ang tyan ko hehehe.... And then sometimes if you are always into this kind of food umay ka na ni anino ng steak ayaw mo na makita and as you age nahihirapan ka na i digest ang meat. Sometimes I buy my fish fresh from the grocery hehehe and have it cooked for my meal.

MYTH #2 Hindi Stress ang food consultant .

Hello yung mag launch ka ng menu every month at isipin kung ano pa bang food ang magiging saleable sa masa is also STRESS imagine hindi ko naman pwede lagyan ng TAPSILOG ang isang Italian Restaurant or lagyan ng DINIGUAN ang isang Greek Resto. Syempre I need to put items on the menu na click sa lasa ng owner at the same time OK sa customer.

I admit minsan ginagawa ko na yung isang dish ng isa kong client nilalagay ko rin sa iba pero their not servicing the same clientele or mag kaiba ang market niche kasi my only intention there was kumita ang menu at madami ang kumain and not her any guest complain.

We consultants hate to hear guest complains nakakasira ng araw to hear complains coming from incompetency of the staff. Syempre lagi ko sinusunod ang tag line ni Enrile " GUSTO KO HAPPY KA" a happy customer means more sales pag more sales mas madami ang kakain at maging happy si owner so next time kuhanin nya ulit ako to do their menu.

MYTH #3 Free Hotel Room...

Well ok Aircon ka round the clock pero paano kung yung hotel bed is orthopedic at ang tigas mahirap din mag adjust ano. I prefer spring type mattress rather that ortho. I sleep well hirap kaya na matigas yung bed... And the pillow kahit hindi goose pillow basta malambot at pluffy. But the best that I've had is either Beads Pillow or Buck Wheat Pillow ang lamig sa ulo and sumusunod sa contour ng spine. The best!!

Until next time!!!
