Dining Skills for Success

Dining has long been associated with gracious hospitality. The ability to be a delightful dinner guest and outstanding host is a quality that friends, family, and co-workers value beyond measure – and is a way of life that you will enjoy always. Everyone has experienced awkward moments at a mealtime, developing proper dining skills frees one from worrying about mistakes.


In this three-hour tutorial luncheon, at El Paso’s finest restaurant, participants learn to be confident and polished in both fine dining situations and casual get-togethers. A beautifully set table in a lovely atmosphere can make good food taste even better and can set the scene for a wonderful dining experience.
