Open House - Food Service

October's edition of Open House - Food Service has this to say about Eat Your Words:

Many Australians simply can't spell, and this can cause a cringe factor when it comes to menus.

No matter how good the food, a menu full of spelling mistakes reflects badly on an establishment, but help is at hand with Eat Your Words - A Menu Speller for Foodies.

This pocket-size guide lists the right way to spell common menu items, and includes pronunciation and usage guides. It also includes basic grammar, and covers apostrophes and when to use capital letters.

It is a must for chefs and front-of-house staff, and can only help add to the professionalism of Australian eateries.
