  1. Here you are chaps:

     

    Perfect Presentation

     

    Cups and saucers should arrive already assembled on the table before the teapot is served.

     

    The handle of the cup must point to the right.

     

    The teaspoon should be tucked under the handle.

     

    Cups: Don’t forget to warm the cold cups before serving

     

    Dripmat: Always ensure that your logo is facing the customer

     

     

    How to Make a Perfect Pot of Tea

     

    Always use a good quality tea.

     

    Always use freshly drawn water. Water that has already boiled will give a “lifeless” cuppa.

     

    Warm the pot.

     

    Use one teaspoon of tea per person and an extra one for the pot.

     

    Leave a brew for four to six minutes to draw out all the flavours of the tea.

     

     

    Serving a Pot of Tea for One

     

    Warm the teapot with a splash of hot water.

     

    Include a small milk jug with the handle facing towards the waitress.

     

    Include a small white sugar bowl with white sugar (cubes if possible ) with teaspoon handle facing towards the waitress.

     

    Always offer a hot water jug.

     

    All handles should point towards the waitress.

     

    Clean doily or dish paper for the tray.

     

    Offer milk or lemon with two slices per person in a little dish.

     

     

    After Service Care - Some Tips

     

    Always store tea in an airtight container in cool, dry conditions away from strong light smelling products such as detergent or fruit to maintain freshness. If tea is left uncovered, it will start to lose flavour. Tea does have a shelf life of up to eighteen months. After then, it does not go 'off' as such but gradually loses its quality and character. The correct storage of tea is important as it can slow down this deterioration.

     

    Always store different blends of tea in different containers. This is especially important with fruit flavoured teas.

     

    If using silver teaspoons or teapots, don't forget to polish them daily to prevent tarnishing. During the day, always remember to dry silver teapots immediately after washing to prevent unsightly water marks.
