An
early gold for the X-Team
Global travel is on the increase as the dust settles on one
project another emerges. The team is full steam ahead managing the team
catering for the Sponsors Chalets at the Beijing Olympics. They have
been writing the menus and training the local staff. What a fantastic
contract for our little Aussie consultants. I can tell you that there
were some of the biggest players in the world bidding for this gig!
Two
More On the Payroll
There has been yet another appointment that
has pleased our X-Treme team; Mitch Austin has now been with the team
just over a month opening the new head office in Balwyn, Melbourne.
Mitch is Glenn’s son, so as you can imagine Glenn is proud to see one
of his sons join the group. Mitch’s role varies but he will hopefully
keep the boys in-line as well as developing the online shopping site www.globalpro.com.au
We also welcome Chef Liam McLaughlin to the
team. Liam returned to Melbourne following a 2 year contract at the
Canberra Institute. Liam is chef manager at Rocc’s Bar and Restaurant
in addition to offering major support to menu and recipe development
for major clients.
Get
the X-Treme Training You Need
With the foodservice sector rapidly
over taking retail, there is a huge demand for qualified staff. X-Treme Training 101 is our
newest success offering foodservice executives an insight into our
diverse career experiences. Each training course is designed to fit
your company’s particular needs and requirements, according to your
desired business outcomes. The
X-Treme training package focuses heavily on food service intelligence
and breaching the barriers of hot headed kitchens, with the topic
itself still running hot.
The latest
course was recently delivered overlooking the hallowed turf of the
MCG and bookings are being
finalised in an Asian road show taking in Vietnam, Singapore, and the
Philippines. The boys are also busy following up leads in South Africa
and New Zealand.
“Get
the Edge” with X-Treme
On behalf of Yoshikin Metal
Industries, X-Treme Chef Consulting is proud to introduce the new
generation of Global knives to Australia and New Zealand, GLOBAL-PRO.
The GLOBAL-PRO Series is for
professional use and are manufactured through the 'honbazuke', special blading
process. Through this process, a blade becomes sharper than that of a
normal knife.
Each knife is individually packaged
in the traditional Yoshikin style packaging and makes a great corporate
or personal gift. The
GLOBAL–PRO series which until now has been sold exclusively in Japan
supersedes the original GLOBAL series and has been undergoing testing
on the Australian Culinary Olympic Team over recent months. They
are on sale only in Australia via the GLOBAL-PRO website.
So after that short little lesson,
find out how you can purchase this X-Tremely good looking product and
the last knife you’ll ever need at www.globalpro.com.au.
Or call the office on 03 98169859

X-Treme Team working recently; Tahiti, Vanuatu, Tokyo, Singapore,

you shouldn’t be consulting with X-Treme.
