They all appreciate your help in doing their job. Servers pour wines through a measured spout to make sure there is enough for everyone. Sometimes these spouts malfunction, so please be patient if there is a problem. Please provide a clear passage for servers to get around each table. Keeping your chair pulled in and hanging long coats in the lobby instead of letting them drape across the floor helps with the flow.
Food is portioned out on trays to serve eight per table.
Trying to squeeze in an extra person not only blocks passage for the servers, it also means someone at the table will go without food. We are always looking for ways to improve programs. Look for a survey sheet soon and give us your suggestions for even better events. And remember, any member of the Enological Society can volunteer to help at a program meeting. We're always willing to share the fun.
