Dress for Success Life Skills Clothing and Outerwear – Connellsville Canteen

Each workplace is unique in its dress code. Depending on the specific dress code for a company’s environment, employees will need to follow the code for business professional, business casual, or casual.

Business professional dress is at the highest level of the dress code. It is conservative, usually a dark business suit, dress shirt with a tie, and dress shoes. For women, it is a suit with a skirt or pants, hose, and closed-toe shoes with a heel. A dress is also acceptable.

Business casual is the most common dress code you will see. Clothing should be conservative and nice. Button-down shirts, pants, blouses, sport coats, and skirts are appropriate. Business casual shoes do not include athletic shoes or flip-flops.

Casual wear is the most difficult dress code to understand. It should still be work appropriate, which means neat and conservative. Jeans are OK with polo shirts or button-downs. A T-shirt may be acceptable if it is in good condition and does not have a slogan or ad on it.

Skirts should be knee-length or longer. Hats are not appropriate in the workplace.

Note that clothing is not really good or bad, but people need to make good choices for professional settings. A short skirt might be perfect for a party and athletic shorts might be fine for a barbecue, but neither is appropriate for most places of business.

__________1. Personal Hygiene – Neatness, cleanliness and maintaining hygiene is expected in every hospitality establishment. Each person working with food must maintain a high degree of cleanliness and a tidy external appearance. Personal hygiene in restaurants is extremely important in order to maintain food health standards. Tie long hair back. Make sure you hair isn’t hanging around your face, dipping into food or falling out around the food premises. Even if you washed it this morning or have slicked it back, hair poses a constant food contamination hazard and so needs to be tied back and out of the way. Nails must be trimmed and cleaned.

Avoid nail polish, perfume & aftershave. Nail polish (or fake nails) can easily chip off and flake into the food you are serving and strong fragrances can taint the food, especially if the food has a high fat content. __________2. The Connellsville Canteen requires “Casual wear” clothing while working.

Clothing will be clean, neat and conservative. Work clothes must be of light color, clean and neat; shoes and hat must also be clean. Jeans are OK with polo shirts or button-downs. Shirts worn must have a collar and not contain a slogan or any language. Tennis shoes are OK, but they must be clean - no sandals or flip-flops will be worn. A hat must be put on before entering

the kitchen so as not to transfer microorganisms on food by combing or fixing hair in the kitchen. __________3. During work hours, it is not permitted to wear jewelry (rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings), wrist watch, etc. These items can easily harbor dirt and bacteria and may even cause physical contamination if bits of precious stone, metal or watch strap happen to fall in a plate of food. __________4. While washing dishes protective aprons or chef jacket must be worn. Rubber gloves must be worn while dish washing. __________5. While working with easily perishable and high risk foods, disposable gloves must be worn. __________6. Injuries (cuts, calluses, wounds) must be properly protected and covered by water resistant bandages and gloves. __________7. Smoking is not permitted in any indoor areas of the Canteen. When you take a cigarette break, always make sure you take off your protective clothing first to avoid bringing any bacteria back inside on your return and always wash your hands before beginning to serve food again. __________8. Staff must not consume food in the kitchen, adjacent area hall and behind the front counter. __________9. Catch your sneezes. When you sneeze, thousands and thousands of bacteriaridden water droplets are released into the air around you. The same goes for coughing. If you don’t catch these droplets with a handkerchief or tissue then any food nearby is at great risk from contamination. If you do find yourself about to cough or sneeze and can’t get to a tissue quickly, direct it into your upper arm to prevent the droplets from spreading. Then, always wash your hands before continuing to serve food.

The Core Four Practices Food Safety Basics United States Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service – Connellsville Canteen

All food handlers must have a high standard of personal cleanliness, wear protective clothing and follow hygiene rules. These things are not an option. You must be in compliance with personal hygiene standards.

Clean __________1. Wash hands and surfaces often. Bacteria can be spread throughout the kitchen and get onto hands, cutting boards, utensils, counter tops and food. 

Wash your hands with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds before and after handling food and after using the bathroom, changing diapers and handling pets.



Wash your cutting boards, dishes, utensils, and counter tops with hot soapy water after preparing each food item and before you go on to the next food.



Consider using paper towels to clean up kitchen surfaces. If you use cloth towels wash them often in the hot cycle of your washing machine.



Rinse fresh fruits and vegetables under running tap water, including those with skins and rinds that are not eaten.



Rub firm-skin fruits and vegetables under running tap water or scrub with a clean vegetable brush while rinsing with running tap water.

Separate

__________2. Don’t cross-contaminate. Cross-contamination is how bacteria can be spread.

Improper handling of raw meat, poultry, seafood and eggs can create an inviting environment for cross-contamination. As a result harmful bacteria can spread to food and throughout the kitchen. 

Separate raw meat, poultry, seafood and eggs from other foods in your grocery shopping cart, grocery bags and in your refrigerator.



Use one cutting board for fresh produce and a separate one for raw meat, poultry and seafood.



Never place cooked food on a plate that previously held raw meat, poultry, seafood or eggs.

Cook

__________3. Cook to the safe internal temperature. Food is safely cooked when it reaches a high enough internal temperature to kill the harmful bacteria that cause foodborne illness. Use a food thermometer to measure the internal temperature of cooked foods.



Use a food thermometer which measures the internal temperature of cooked meat, poultry and egg dishes, to make sure that the food is cooked to a safe internal temperature.



Cook roasts and steaks to a minimum of 145°F. All poultry should reach a safe minimum internal temperature of 165°F as measured with a food thermometer. Check the internal temperature in the innermost part of the thigh and wing and the thickest part of the breast with a food thermometer.



Cook ground meat, where bacteria can spread during grinding, to at least 160°F. Information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) links eating undercooked ground beef with a higher risk of illness. Remember, color is not a reliable indicator of doneness Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature of your burgers.



Cook eggs until the yolk and white are firm, not runny. Don’t use recipes in which eggs remain raw or only partially cooked.



Cook fish to 145°F or until the flesh is opaque and separates easily with a fork.



Make sure there are no cold spots in food (where bacteria can survive) when cooking in a microwave oven. For best results, cover food, stir and rotate for even cooking. If there is no turntable, rotate the dish by hand once or twice during cooking.



Bring sauces, soups and gravy to a boil when reheating. Heat other leftovers thoroughly to 165°F. Chill

__________4. Refrigerate promptly. Refrigerate foods quickly because cold temperatures slow the growth of harmful bacteria. Do not over-stuff the refrigerator. Cold air must circulate to help keep food safe. Keeping a constant refrigerator temperature of 40°F or below is one of the most effective ways to reduce the risk of foodborne illness. Use an appliance thermometer to be sure the temperature is consistently 40°F or below. The freezer temperature should be 0°F or below. 

Refrigerate or freeze meat, poultry, eggs and other perishables as soon as you get them home from the store.



Never let raw meat, poultry, eggs, cooked food or cut fresh fruits or vegetables sit at room temperature more than two hours before putting them in the refrigerator or freezer (one hour when the temperature is above 90°F).



Never defrost food at room temperature. Food must be kept at a safe temperature during thawing. There are three safe ways to defrost food: in the refrigerator, in cold water, and in the microwave. Food thawed in cold water or in the microwave should be cooked immediately.



Always marinate food in the refrigerator.



Divide large amounts of leftovers into shallow containers for quicker cooling in the refrigerator.



Use or discard refrigerated food on a regular basis.

Greeting, Seating, Presenting Menu to Guests How to be a great Host or Hostess – Connellsville Canteen “Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning” -Bill Gates There are several moments that are crucial to the guest’s perception of the café. In order for us to deliver a great guest experience, we must understand these important aspects of the guest experience. Specifically these are when the guest is entering the building, being greeted by the server, checked on during their meal, asked for feedback and thanked before they leave. Every detail in the café is important. Never play a radio station with commercials or news or talking of any kind.

__________1. The host or hostess is the first and last person the guests see at a restaurant.

Because of this you must always be alert, attentive and efficient. Keeping the café orderly, making sure guests are happy, and keeping track of what’s going on at each table are just some of the ways you can keep your guests happy. __________2. First impressions are lasting when greeting guests that come into the Connellsville Canteen. All guests should be welcomed within 1 minute of arrival. Guests should be greeted warmly with a smile and good eye-contact. Do not make a singleton feel bad by saying “Are you waiting for someone.” Tell guests they are welcome to sit anywhere in the Canteen, and present them with a menu upon being seated. Do not compliment a guest’s attire or hairdo or makeup. You are insulting someone else. Do not curse, no matter how young or hip the guests are. Do not gossip about co-workers or guests with earshot of guests. __________3. If you are busy with another guest, acknowledge the guest by saying, “I will be right with you,” make eye contact, or a simple hand gesture also works. __________4. When the guest sits down, show them the proper menu for the time of day. Never throw menus on the table and leave without saying anything. Do not interrupt a conversation.

For any reason. Especially not to recite specials. Wait for the right moment. When guests order, never say “Good Choice,” implying that other choices are bad. Never say “No problem.”

It has a tone of insincerity or sarcasm. Instead use the term “My pleasure” or “You’re welcome.” Do not call a guy “dude” and do not call a women “lady”. __________5. Make sure that there are complete place settings for each guest and that the table is clean. If not, get the napkins/silverware, or give the table a quick wipe down with a damp clean cloth. Make sure the glasses are clean. Inspect them before placing them on the table. Do not leave place settings that are not being used on the table. __________6. Know your menu inside and out. If you serve Balsam Farm candy-striped beets, know something about Balsam Farm and candy-striped beets. Let the guests know right away if

you’re out of something before the guests read the menu. Do not let guests double-order unintentionally; remind the guest who orders ratatouille that hamburgers come with chips with the entrée. Do not stand behind someone who is ordering. Make eye contact. Thank him or her. Bring condiments with the meal, don’t let guests ask for ketchup or pepper. __________7. Know before approaching a table who has ordered what. Do not ask, “Who’s having the shrimp?” Never serve anything that looks creepy or runny or wrong. Do not ask what someone is eating or drinking when they ask for more; remember or consult the order.

Never deliver a hot plate without warning the guest. Never ask a guest to pass along that hot plate. Do not serve a salad on a freezing cold plate; it usually advertises the fact that it has not been freshly prepared. Do not bring out soup without a spoon. __________8. Be prepared to get some things for guests, water refills, utensils, napkins, or carryout boxes. If someone requests more sauce or gravy or cheese, bring a side dish of same.

No pouring. Let them help themselves. Do not touch the rim of a water glass. Never use the same glass for a second drink. Only pick up silverware by the handles. Do not ignore a table because it is not our table. Stop, look, listen, lend a hand. Do not return to the guest anything that falls on the floor – be it a napkin, spoon, menu or anything else. Do not show frustration.

Your only mission is to serve. Be patient. __________9. Serve guests in such a way so as to not obstruct the guest, and in a polite way.

Ask if they are finished first, even if it is obvious to you. Usually remove from the right but if this appears to be obstructed, use common sense and remove from the best position available.

If removing entails reaching over another guest’s food, then wait. Do not take an empty plate from one guest while others are still eating the same course. Do not bang into tables or chairs when passing by. __________10. Checking on the meal is equally crucial for the Café. At the end of the day, people are coming for the food. People buy the experience, but the food is the big part of it.

One the several functions of checking back with a guest is just to show hospitality. An important function o checking on a guest is to show empathy and concern. After demonstrating hospitality, the next function of the check back is quality control. The server must make sure that the orders are correct, complete, and satisfying. Orders usually arrive at the table correct, but sometimes the expediter in the kitchen may miss something. A correct order is also correctly prepared. If something is over or undercooked, you want to find out as soon as possible. Never blame the chef or the busboy or the hostess or the weather for anything that goes wrong. Just make it right.

Sometimes orders arrive incomplete. Someone could be missing sides or one person at the table could be missing a meal. This is especially possible if a food runner or server assistant delivered the dinners and not the server. There is also the possibility that people may be missing condiments, napkins, or silverware. Should a guest need any of those, they must be delivered promptly. If someone waits four minutes for a soup spoon the soup will be cold. The

same goes for mayo and mustard for a hamburger; the food gets cold and they are waiting that long to start their meal.

Along with demonstrating hospitality, checking also provides the opportunity to enhance the guest experience. For instance, if a guest labored over a choice, you want to take the time to specifically ask that person if they are happy with their choice. If they enjoy it, you can play up a great decision and celebrate a great product. Taking this action can impact future sales. By contrast, if the choice is unsatisfactory, you are allowed the opportunity to fix it. Never say “I don’t know” to any question without following with, “I’ll find out.” Never remove a full plate of food without asking what went wrong. Do not ask, “Are you still working on that?” Dining is not working. Do not have a personal conversation with another server within earshot of customers. Do not eat or drink in plain view of guests. If a few people signal for the check, find a neutral place on the table to leave it, or give the check to the person that asked for it. Do not ask if the guest needs change, bring it to them. __________12. Bussing tables. Do not stack the plates on the table. Keep the noise down when cleaning tables. Do not drop or spill something without cleaning it up right away. __________13. Asking for feedback. This is a crucial step for servers. To do this, the server has to actually stop and take the time to get feedback. Rushing through check backs and table visits does not work. If you are moving so quickly that it looks like you don’t care, they will assume that you do not care. There is also an intangible quality about getting the right feedback. __________14. Thanking the guest. More than one person should thank the guest. Ideally, the server thanks them, sincerely. These words are crucial. Otherwise the guest can leave without feeling appreciated. Never touch a customer. No excuses. Do not brush them off or move them. Never mention the tip, unless asked. Do not turn on the charm when it’s tip time. Be consistent throughout. __________15. All details in the Café must meet protocol. The above items are about specific moments that can greatly impact sales.
