The event provides participants with an opportunity to showcase their restaurant service skills, developed through relentless commitment to training and development, over a two day competition, testing skills such as cocktail making, napkin folding, flambé, and food and wine service.

The competition finished with Tracy taking the top prize.  Well done.
