The Evanstonian is an upscale independent hotel. | |
When a guest calls room service at The Evanstonian , the room-service manager takes down the order. | |
She then submits an order ticket to the kitchen to begin preparing the food. | |
She also gives an order to the sommelier ( i.e. | |
, the wine waiter ) to fetch wine from the cellar and to prepare any other alcoholic beverages. | |
Eighty percent of room-service orders include wine or some other alcoholic beverage. | |
Finally , she assigns the order to the waiter. | |
While the kitchen and the sommelier are doing their tasks , the waiter readies a cart ( i.e. | |
, puts a tablecloth on the cart and gathers silverware ). | |
The waiter is also responsible for nonalcoholic drinks. | |
Once the food , wine , and cart are ready , the waiter delivers it to the guest � s room. | |
After returning to the room-service station , the waiter debits the guest � s account. | |
The waiter may wait to do the billing if he has another order to prepare or deliver . |
