Hi,
I just found out about your web site. I just came back from my vacation. We visited Ensenada, Mexico. We went to eat to a great mom’s and pop’s restaurant. The waiters were very courteous. The food fabulous. The service efficient. The establishment clean and well taken care of.
At the end of the meal I decided to speak with the owner and let her know of our experience. She was in the kitchen area visible from the dining area. She was a beautiful middle aged woman. When I told her of our fabulous experience she appeared humbled and smiled shyly. I know she probably knows she is successful because she is very busy but, I wonder how many times sometimes bothers to let her know what a fabulous job she does and what a great experience she facilitates, unfortunately, we usually only say something when we are unhappy.
Thanks,
Alex
Alex, what a great story. Thank you for sharing. I believe you right on with complimenting others in restaurants. For me, when I receive my check at a restaurant, I always write a note on the receipt for the waiter or waitress to see. Here is what I put on all of them, “GREAT JOB! GREAT SERVICE! THANK YOU! Sometimes I mix it up a bit but it is something very similar.
You might be asking what happens when you get bad service and bad food. I can tell you since I have been doing it, I just don’t receive bad service or food no matter where I go. If it should happen, I look at the situation with compassion and act in that manner when communicating to the waiter.
Thanks again for the positive note!
Peace and Gratitude,
Bill
