National Skills Competition


Just back from a long leisurely liquid lunch as part of my professional duties helping out at the National Skills competition which are being hosted by the DIT, the restaurant service part of which is being held here in Cathal Brugha st. The objectives of the competition are to promote the pursuit of excellence in vocational education and training and to find and acknowledge the best student in their specialist area. Obviously to be judged on their waitering skills they have to have someone to waiter on. So that's why for the past 2 hours i've been sitting with some friends being served up, smoked mackeral, liver pate, quail egg mayonnaise, cream of chicken soup, roast rack of lamb and flambe of fresh berries accompanied by a 2006 chablis and a Chilean Sauvignon. All for the greater glory of DIT...well somebody hast to do it, and good luck to our waitress and representative from the college Lyndsey.
