Survey on Hotel Cuisine Promotions by Dining Downunder
Guest chefs are commonly invited to host hotel promotions around the world. However many promotions are still seen as significant cost centres and run for public relations rather than as for what they should be - serious revenue generators. To identify the challenges for hotels in hosting cuisine promotions, Dining Downunder has developed an industry survey which is located at http://www.dining-downunder.com/survey.asp . The survey will run until the end of March and allows hotels to evaluate future promotions and distinguish the profitability of a particular event. Dining Downunder's survey covers all the necessary facets to providing a successful hotel cuisine promotions and includes areas such as; promotional budget; cuisine selection; menu development; marketing; staff training; sponsorship; room sales and most importantly, what makes a promotion successful?The survey also directs participants to think outside the square to attract attendees to the promotions and look at what opportunities they offer potential guests.
Then there is also the consideration of staff training. How convenient can it be to invite a guest chef who specialises in a particular cuisine and have them instruct the kitchen brigade on the intricacies of his specialty cuisine? Why shouldn't the Human Resources Department contribute to the promotional budget?As the survey is of industry benefit, Dining Downunder will share the responses for all chefs, F&B directors and General Managers to consider. The results will be emailed out in early April. Promotions Survey is located at www.dining-downunder.com/survey.aspAbout Dining Downunder Pty LtdThe series has come about from a joint venture between Australian wild food devotee turned Executive Producer, Vic Cherikoff ( http://www.cherikoff.net ) and a Canadian TV Producer.

Rodent Proofing Your Home
It's that time of year where rats and mice are apt to enter our homes. Lets talk a bit about their abilities and senses first. Rats and mice cannot see very good beyond 3 or 4 feet but have a very good sense of motion up to 30 to 50 feet away and for the most part they are color blind. Rodents are most active at night. These rodents have a very good sense of taste so baits may be rejected by them if they are contaminated with insecticides or odors from other chemicals.
Even touching baits after smoking a cigarette will make these rodents to shy away from the baits. Rats and mice also have a good sense of smell. They mark pathways with urine and use their sense of smell to recognize the odors of the pathway to and from food sources. Their hearing is much better than humans and make noises in various situations such as mating. Rodents have a highly developed sense of touch due to their sensitive body hairs.
They rely heavily on touch and smell to guide them through movements....
