Wine Pairing In Fine Dining Restaurants

In this video, Escoffier Online’s Chef Mark Dowling and Ruth Chris Steak House‘s Michael Walton create a segment on wine pairing for front of the house specialists in fine dining restaurants. For servers it is important to know the guests “point of view” and how he or she may interpret the chef’s vision of the dish in a different way. In this case, the guest and server need to communicate with each other since the guest might misinterpret what they are ordering and end up choosing an incorrect pairing of wine. For the front of the house specialist it is critical to describe the order and give helpful wine pairing suggestions.

Watch our previous video in this series. Thank you Mark and Michael! We look forward to sharing our next hospitality video series on wine pairing in our blog post next Wednesday, September 11th.
