In-depth knowledge of both food and beverages is extremely important, as we need to be able to explain the offerings on our menus and provide customers with advice and support for their choices. This will include understanding special diets and being aware of the nutritional needs of customers. It can be unpleasant or dangerous if the wrong type of food is served to a client.
