Im 19 and I started my first job as a server in a restaurant just to make some money and pay stuff since I live with my mom. Been there for two months and never dropped a plate and I serve dozens if not hundreds of plates everyday, but it was still very helpful, thx.
Wow! Just starting a new server job. Got the job today actually. I’ve done serving before however it’s been quite a while I haven’t done it so I just binged all your videos and praying I will remember and put it to action! Thanks so much!
cannot stress how much this helped me I'm about to start a new food running job but I have shaky hands but this technique works even for me the key is that 3 point! Thank you been practicing haha
I owe this mann a lottt . I was being interviewed with a really big and important company for lounge services, and the last question in the interview was to show them how I hold plates,I did perfectly as shown in this tutorial and the recruiter was impressed! And guess whattt!!!! I was accepted into this amazing company after 3 interviews, all because of this AMAZINGGG man ,Thank you sooo much !!!!
thank you :) i've been working as a waitress for a few months now but we normally use trays to bring our plates out, but just incase the trays are occupied i needed to learn this. thanks! ^^ i just hope the plates arent too hot when i go pick them up haha
THIS IS SO MUCH SMARTER AND EASIER WAY THAN WHAT MY COLLEAGUE SHOWED ME WTF 😭 now i can actually carry 3 plates without feeling like one is gonna slide off my hand any second, thanks for this!!!
For 7 months, I am a server at a senior assisted living home and things are pretty chill. I totally understand the stress of getting the orders up on the window and out to the tables on time. This video is so helpful! I am going to try to carry the 3 plates. Usually I would only put two plates on a tray with 2 drinks on my right hand and with the left hand I carry the 3rd plate. My worst fear is accidentally spilling 3 plates! haha.
Im about to start working at a senior assisted living home as a server myself. I’ve never been a server before, and also don’t really have any experience at these homes either. Do you have any tips for me, or just some things I should expect from the work? I would appreciate the help a ton.
@@paranoid5073 Hey friend! I am so excited to hear that you re starting to work at a senior assisted living home was a server! Congrats! Listen, I can relate to how you are feeling now. When I started last year I had that same thought of not having server experience before. I had done work in food service industry through volunteering and working at an ice cream shop. And I did well in costumer service when serving costumers at the ice cream shop. You'll find that most people who become servers, it's their first time as servers with no experience. The company that you work for will give you training and will help you to know everything you need to know. I never worked in a senior home until last year when I became a server.You will expect training from the company they will show you how to take room service orders and how to take orders from the residents in the dining room. You will learn the tips and tricks to serving. And you will learn how to stack plates well when cleaning tables. Stacking dirty plates is an art and if you do it right, you won't smash any lol. It's okay to be nervous. I was at first terrified on my first day but as the day progressed I got to know my lovely coworkers and over time I got to know the facility. And remember, don't expect to be perfect. You will make mistakes and don't feel bad, it's part of life working at a new job. Please feel free to reach out if you have any more questions. Again, I am so happy for you!
Awesome ! Second shift as a food runner and I tried to double carry and smashed cake all over myself and I knew I needed to flatten out things some how! Will be practicing this from now on!!
This is so helpful, when I see people carrying plates like this I thought that I couldn’t do it, but I am so happy that just by watching this video I can do it Thank you
19 and going for server training at a local restaurant on Monday(1st job) so this was really helpful coz I’ll try getting comfortable with this at home first. Thank you.
Thank you for this. The thumb pinky and forearm POC tip was INCREDIBLY helpful to me. Thank you very much, was getting so frustrated at the plates sliding on me
I work in Assisted senior living as a lead server Dinning room manager I find this extremely helpful by watching your channel my skills as server my residents has definitely stepped up thanks 😊
tl;dr, I had no clue how to properly hold plates and dropped a steak knife in front of an old lady. I had a stage at a restaurant (an unpaid trial shift) and was asked to clear a 4-person table. I tried to be a hero and get the entire table cleared in one go to impress management and exhibit the necessary skills to be an asset to the team. Yada yada yada. Anyways, so there I am, picking up these plates one by one. Mind you I have no technique or understanding of balancing plates whatsoever, and figure if I will my way through it and go for it, I'll be fine. I ended up with like 6 plates in my hands and a bunch of utensils stacked on top of the plate pile. Out of all the innocent utensils that could have possibly dropped (a spoon, butter knife, fork), one of the monstrous STEAK KNIVES fell right in front of this old ladies face and onto the table. The rest of her party, consisting of 3 other wealthy, elderly women loudly gasp in unison. The lady whom I dropped the knife in front of angrily mutters "Well don't stab me now!" I stand there, mortified by her comment and the awkwardness of the situation. The Manager and supervisor happened to witness it as well, and rushed over to help me with the plates. They sent me home early, said that I was "really green", and emailed me the next day to let me know they "don't have the bandwidth" to train me and thus I was not offered the position. I felt as if I was doing well on the shift, and was feeling really confident and comfortable at the restaurant. But, I was ultimately judged by that horrific blunder, as it totally outshined any other positives I may have been having throughout the rest of the shift. The moral of the story is to not be hero and attempt to clear an entire table by yourself when it is beyond your ability. Ask another server for help if needed. Aside from elbowing someone in the face or dropping hot food on them, I'd say nearly being stabbed by a flying steak knife is pretty much up there with one of the worst possible things that can happen. Having someone help you out or clearing the table in two goes is an infinitely better solution.
im doing a similiar way at my job with 2 plates each hand, how ever the plates being a uniform size and not particularely large to begin with. the method you show is awesome and feels much safer holding, defnetly a very helpfull video on my book.
stop omg ive been needing to see this. i’ve been working in this restaurant for nearly 4 months now and i still can’t carry more than three plates at a time 😥 it’s just so hot at the bottom
I really appreciate this technique and employed it as a food runner. However, I am still struggling. The plates are huge with lots of food on it making it to heavy to hold with just my thumb and pinky. The bottom one was still slipping from my pinky and the plates were very hot, causing me to stop and put them on the nearest counter. Any advice on how to correct this? Also my restaurant really wants us to carry FOUR plates at time!
This is great technique and you made a great video, but I would like to make a point that was not touched on. Rather than pick up the dishes by seat number, you should know the table number so you can carry the way you set down. For example you don’t always serve food seat number 1-3 if seat 3 is occupied by the only woman at the table or if there is booth seating you want to serve the people on the inside first so that you don’t reach across fresh food to serve the inside. Your tips are great, but I’m just offering advice to elevate it a bit further. Cheers!
Put your thumb on the rim of the plate, your finger on the lip of the bottom of the plate, now you have 3 fingers free to hold the 2nd plate, the 3rd plate goes on the rim of the 2nd plate, and your forearm, your other hand holds the 4th. Same with when clearing a table
I've been waiting for 2 years but the pinky trick dosent work at my restaurant because we pre-heat our plates in a convection oven to keep rice and beans hot we use mittens and pan handle sleeves I take out 4 plates max I've dose 5 before but it's really unstable same with drinks serving drinks 5 max but I've done 4 on one hand before not recommended
as a student that's studying hotel stuff, my hands are always shaking whenever i try to carry full plates:( i don't know what to do, when i do it on clear plates it's much easier - thank you for your video!!:)
I wish I was taught this when I worked one day at a restaurant as a busboy would’ve made it a lot easier cause it was an upscale restaurant that didn’t use the gray bins. They wanted me to work there but I was kind of intimidated by this
@@pharkwunsheappitukthum8971 ha thanks! I live here. I'm a Muay Thai fighter and run a business in Thailand. I first moved here in 2014. I moved back to America and made these videos. Now back in Thailand.
I'll be flying to Europe by next month to work as server/waiter.. I'm very nervous and excited because this will be my first time going abroad and without my family. Only with my dreams.
Unfortunately the restaurant I work at has these big wide plates that are so heavy. There’s no way to balance those without getting burned or spilling something.
Omg please give me tips on how you do it??? I am starting my first shift next week and I’m so nervous. How do you carry And balance such heavy plates ??? Also what if you simple can’t carry more than 2? Do you think they will eventually fire you
@@jen4162 They won’t fire you 😳. I recommend only carrying what you can. I start with two plates at a time since they’re really hot and I hold one over the other so I don’t get in the way of the customers with the plates. If you’re carrying more than two plates you can line them up on your arm but be careful because that’s harder. Also don’t hold the bottom if they’re too hot. You’ll burn yourself. And never out your thumbs on the plates or the bowls. Only on the edge or the bottom/side.
@@Honestly.Alejandra but don’t the plates get soooo heavy with food on them? Especially if you have to hold 3, I don’t have strong arms :/ I just don’t wanna drop it
@@Honestly.Alejandra what about for carrying multiple drinks ?? Any tips for carrying a drink tray? How to balance it and avoid it from spilling or falling
Step of service 10 (1) welcome the guest (2) seat the guest (3) present the menu (4) serve the water (5) Take the order (6) Serve the order (6) Take beverages Order (7) Take food follow up (8) Take dessert order (9) Present the Bill (10) See off to guest Remember in your Prayers 🙏
any tips on avoiding hands shaking because of the weight of the plates+dishes above? i suppose just practice maybe, getting stronger wrists, anything doable in short time?
@@RealServerTraining what about doing an it with depth plates instead of flat ones? I've been told to do it as well and i think it's more difficult. Sorry for the abuse.
@@HaroldEsc almost like bowls? trickier for sure but same principles apply. you should be able to ask other servers to follow you as well.... getting hot food out successfully is #1
Whoa I've tried balancing like 3 or 4 Plates taking it to a Table but wouldn't it be better with a Tray then lay it down on the Table when you taking away the Tray
It doesn't look good to set a tray on people's table while they're dining... and where are you going to even set the tray? Just take two plates at a time and find someone to follow with the other one or two. Or keep trying this until you feel more confident.
a lot of restaurants use seat numbers in addition to table numbers. this helps track orders and know which plate is going where. Typically you'll have an established pivot point (where you take orders from) and seat 1 is first to your left and continues in clockwise manner.

Whoa I've tried balancing like 3 or 4 Plates taking it to a Table but wouldn't it be better with a Tray then lay it down on the Table when you taking away the Tray
It doesn't look good to set a tray on people's table while they're dining... and where are you going to even set the tray? Just take two plates at a time and find someone to follow with the other one or two. Or keep trying this until you feel more confident.
thank you so much. have my trial on friday. wish me luck haha
good luck!
What does first seat, second seat, or third seat mean unless its referring to tables what do those “seats” mean?
a lot of restaurants use seat numbers in addition to table numbers. this helps track orders and know which plate is going where. Typically you'll have an established pivot point (where you take orders from) and seat 1 is first to your left and continues in clockwise manner.
