Testimonials

“I feel you are the best on Training Restaurant Service Skills. Never seen it done before so thorough and hands-on. Great!”
Ms Cynthia Simon
Antigua Barbuda Ministry of Tourism Manager
-Tourism Education, Training and Awareness

"Nothing but the very highest of accolades here! I have retained Debbie’s very profound professional expertise both while GM/COO for Thunderbird Country Club in Rancho Mirage, CA --- and, most recently, reached out to her while doing consulting work for Oakbourne Country Club in Lafayette, LA. In each instance – she raises the bar of excellence and leaves the property profoundly improved as a direct result of her professional knowledge and personal charm. Simply stated – Debbie is unmatched in Food & Beverage table service expertise and brings a teaching persona that instantly engages all those before her. Her ability to educate “newbies” and to reinvigorate more seasoned staff at the same time is more than impressive. Debbie gets my highest of highest recommendation to any top tier hospitality venue seeking to add polish and consistency to their front of the house service staff."
