In
my previous blog post I explained what Fine Dining was.
Now I hope to explain what makes fine dining different from casual
dining. One main difference is that fine dining restaurants provide
services
that casual dining restaurants would not.
An
example of this would be
providing silver service or
similar high-end services..
This makes
the fine dining sector different
from
casual
dining As
it shows a skill set that is incredibly unlikely to be found
elsewhere.
There
are many other differences between the two such as the
quality and type of service, and price
as well as staff
knowledge and quality. These are
incredibly important to fine dining as
the quality and type of service they
offer are what gives them their
higher-end reputation. This
is important as we as customers expect a fine dining company
to provide us
with
an exceptionally high standard of service to
live up to the title of “fine-dining.”
Another
Difference is the prices fine dining restaurants charge. Fine dining
restaurants generally price their food differently from casual dining
Restaurants. This is mainly because as fine dining is more of a
luxury experience, they try to use the highest quality ingredients
which obviously cost a lot more than the ingredients used in casual
dining restaurants meaning the menu prices increase. Fine dining
restaurants also charge more as they need an incredibly highly
skilled workforce to prepare and cook their customers food.
Finally
fine dining restaurants
are made
different from casual dining by
the staff members in the restaurant. This refers
to both the knowledge possessed by and
the quality of staff members. The knowledge possessed by the staff in
a fine dining restaurant may be different from the knowledge
possessed by the staff in a casual dining restaurant. As
in a fine dining restaurant staff are
expected to know more advanced techniques or methods in terms of both
the kitchen and front of house than the staff in say a smaller more
casual dining restaurant. The staff
quality also makes fine dining different
as it is essential to have a top quality workforce in
a fine-dining restaurant.
