a To enablestudentsto talk aboutrecentevenrs.

From the moment a guest arrivesat a restaurantuntil he / she leavesa number of


things can go wrong: problemsmay ariseconcerningthe food, the service,the
facilities,etc. Guests,of course,have every right to complain - the customer is always
right! - and it is the professional'sduty to apologiseand to try to solvethe problem
as quickly as possiblein order to ensurethe guest'ssatisfactionand to encourage
their loyalty.
Therefore, it Ís vital for staff to understandcomplaintsand deal with them tactfully.
They must be able to:
. askwhat the problem is
. apologise
. explainthe reasonfor the problem
. offer a solutionor compensation
. refer the guest to the member of staff in charge

The secretof turning upset guestsinto satisfiedones is one of the keysfor business
successin the cateringindustry.This unit providesthe languagethat studentsneed
to do so.
