Knowledge tray skills of catering service

There are two kinds of trays: light and heavy.

Operation method of light support (chest support):

Tray management: before tray management, disinfect the tray and hands with medical alcohol before loading the tray. After washing the tray to be used, dry it with a cloth and put it on a clean flower mat or cloth mat. The size of the floor mat is suitable for the tray, and the exposed part is even, beautiful and neat, and it can also prevent the things in the tray from slipping and causing accidents.

Pallet loading: according to the shape, weight, volume and use order of the pallet, the pallet is loaded reasonably and the heavy objects are assembled reasonably. The left chest is 90 degrees, the elbow waist 15cm, the arms are vertical, the palms are up, the fingers are separated, and the palms of the fingers hold the bottom of the tray, so that the palms will be recessed and the palms will not touch the bottom of the tray. Before lifting the foot, the left foot should be extended forward, and the left hand and elbow should be supported. Make sure the tray is balanced so that it lies flat on the chest.

Walking: head straight, upper body straight, staring ahead, gentle steps, quick movements, steady steps and broad vision. When the tray is used, the hand bowl rotates easily and flexibly, and the tray swings naturally with the pace of walking. Remember not to be stiff, the tray swings too much, which is unsightly and generous.

There are five walking postures.

Constant pace: the pace is even and gentle. Use general steps when supporting general projects.

Trot: stable, fast and coordinated. When serving unfinished dishes or urgently needed items, walk at the fastest speed on the premise of ensuring that the dishes are not deformed and the soup is not spilled.

Rolling step (trot): Walking at a medium speed with small and fast steps. Suitable for dishes with more soup and trusted items.

Running stair steps: bend your body forward, move your center of gravity forward, stride two steps with a large step distance, rise step by step, quickly and evenly, skillfully use the inertia of body and tray movement, speed up, and save physical strength.

Step (auxiliary step): when sideways, take one step with your right foot and one step with your left foot. You should use Step by step when you want to put food on the table before sending it to the restaurant.

Unloading: When the goods are delivered to the restaurant, carefully put them in the selected position, put the plates on the table with both hands, and then take them when the goods are stable, and take them off alternately from both sides of the plates.

Trust method:

Great trust is the end support for large and heavy articles, which requires the waiter to have certain arm strength and skills.

Tray arrangement: basically the same as light trays, you should choose a tray with the right size. It is very important to do a good job of cleaning items that often bring more soup. Only by cleaning up the oil in the vegetables in time can the accident of sliding objects be avoided.

Pallet loading: the articles in the pallet should be evenly and properly placed in the classification code, so that the weight of the articles is evenly distributed in the pallet. Pay attention to the coordination of placing items according to height, and avoid mixing items in layers to avoid damaging tableware. When loading the pallet, it is also necessary to leave a proper space between objects to avoid collision and noise when the end bracket walks.

Tray: Heavy support is also called shoulder rest. The posture of re-supporting is to move the tray to the service desk with both hands, so that the tray is semi-suspended. Hold the tray flat with your right hand, separate your feet into a figure of eight, squat your legs slightly, and lean forward slightly. Hold the bottom of the tray with your left hand and five fingers. After grasping the center of gravity, help your left hand lift the tray slowly and forcefully. When lifting, the left hand and tray will be sent to the upper part of the left shoulder during the upward and left rotation. When the tip of your left finger is backward, the tray is 2cm away from your shoulder, and then your right hand will be retracted. Hold the dish without arms, mouth in front of the dish, hair behind the dish (right hand holding the front corner of the dish). Once the pallet is lifted, you should always maintain uniform strength and hold the pallet to the end, otherwise it will cause the goods to tilt, fall and slide, and be ready to get rid of the collision of others at any time. Keep your upper body straight, keep your arms parallel, keep your eyes on the front, walk smoothly and gently, keep your arms from tilting, keep your body from swinging, and never stop when encountering obstacles. After holding up the tray, you should grasp the center of gravity and relax naturally.
