Bistro Live Summer Menu Training


Menu changes are crazy, but here at Bistro Live we like to make sure our staff are on game to help you make a choice from our tempting menu.

A week before the new menu starts, all of the chefs get together and we design the new dishes. This is when we decide how your will receive each dish.

Then we gather the staff from each venue and remake all of the dishes for training purposes, doing this ensures consistency of knowledge, quality and the presentation across all 3 venues. We all have a taste and give feedback on what may improve the quality of the product. The team keep in mind allergies and intolerances that some of our customers may suffer from and what ingredients may be suitable replacements.

This is a great team bonding tradition, the tasting of dishes allows us to get some great feedback which results in a great menu overall!

I like this menu as it’s exciting yet subtle. My three favorite dishes are Flageolet Bean & Goats Cheese Salad, Chicken Penne Alfredo, and Triple Chocolate Brownie.  The brownie is definatly for those who have a sweet tooth, its warm, moist and rich!! We received some superb feedback from our team, who are excited for the new menu, some quoting 'it’s summery and refreshing', 'it does wonders for your taste buds', and 'wow can I have more'. We just hope to receive better feedback from you!!
