Note the Merit criteria attached to this question above. Be sure to hit this. Use can use the same restaurants in this question as the last (you might as well). For
each, state what system they are using (food production and service). State the theme, style, price and level of quality (don’t say high just because, be serious and
think in terms of their competition). This is all part of their ‘system’ as we choose the level of quality to provide. While this is required, it does not answer the
question yet. For this question you must justify the systems they choose, you have stated the system. Now tell us why they need to have that system and not the system of the other
restaurants you are including. Why is this one the one they should use? You can even state that they could switch to parts of the other restaurant systems. Argue your
point. All of this is written briefly.  Q3.1- Provide a preliminary menu (including alternative dishes) for your upcoming food and beverage service (Q4.2) using the guidelines provided. No word count.M2 Select/design and apply appropriate methods/ techniques Use appropriate methods and techniques for designing and compiling your menu, costing and

everything line up. Spend some time making it similar to a real menu you would provide to customers. The menu I would like to see is “more” than the menu you will provide to your guests. I would like to see some options to choose from. Make a nice full menu. Whether
you let the guests choose which recipes you will make is up to you for Q4.2. I would like to see a minimum of 9 items on the menu. And include drinks. Remember: this
is food AND beverage. Include prices (either a la carte or table d’hote style is fine).  Q4.1- Provide a detailed plan for your food and beverage service (guidance will be provided) including filled checklists (provided) for health, safety and security

Note there are 2 distinction criteria for this question. However, the requirement for this question is only to provide photos of the event. And a brief explanation of
what we are looking at (titles for the photos is sufficient). Take a photo of each dish and photos of the event itself. Under each photo in a few words tell us what we are looking at, either the name of the dish, the table
setting, people enjoying a course, etc. As photos take up a large amount of space (data), I suggest you resize the images prior to placing them in your document, or taking low resolution images. If your file size is still too large you may need to convert your word document into PDF by selecting save as. However, this is a last step as you will not be able to
make changes after that. To get the distinction criteria 2 you must look organized in your photos, table setting, layout of the food, organization of the dining area.To get Distinction criteria 3 you must show that you have made an effort in the plating of the food for your event and still with the idea of the theme/style of the
event in mind. Make an effort in providing beautiful food. Even a buffet can be made beautiful. Look online for plating ideas.  Q2.1- Discuss the use of financial statements in food and beverage operations. 200-250 words.You only need to discuss what financial statements we use, in F&B.

recipes. Only 1-2 recipes are required in your submission to be costed and provided. However, you should know how much in total your meal is costing you (which would
require you to finish costing your recipes).I would like to see a minimum of 6 ingredients on either one recipe, or if that recipe is shorter, then 6+ ingredients spread over two recipes. The sheets must be
completed and include all boxes filled in. Using the pricing of the menu and the cost for your dishes and showing an understanding of food cost (remaining reasonable between 25-40% food cost) is Merit 2

Include: quality, price, sales, ease from location, already had in stock (in your house), borrowed from neighbour, etc. Don’t just state these, give these as reasons.
Eg.
