Many seemingly small factors play a part in the success of a catering or accommodation business, yet every customer and staff member notices when they are missing. One such detail is staff workwear and textiles.
\nAttractive, comfortable workwear is a good way to show your employees that they are valued. It deserves some thought, because customer service staff, as the company's walking calling cards, have to deal with people every day, be in a good mood, behave professionally and form a team brimming with synergy with the rest of their colleagues.
\nThe question sometimes arises whether textiles are value-creating elements in a restaurant, hotel or catering business or a tiresome and costly headache \u2013 it all depends on making an informed choice! When procuring workwear, whether chef clothing, service staff clothing, or housekeeping or cleaning staff clothing, it is important to do thorough homework beforehand: work out exactly which products suit your business and put them to work in the best possible way.<\/p>\n

Today's trends<\/h5>\n

Speaking of the vast majority and today's trends, the preference for comfortable, breathable, thinner and easier-care materials is obvious. Various shades of grey are in fashion, as are aprons in durable denim and variations on them. Environmental friendliness certainly also plays a major role today, with sustainably (Sustainable<\/em>) recycled materials. The Danish brand\u00a0Kentaur<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>has brought us very good feedback. Danish design and products are a good match for Estonians' preferences \u2013 understated Scandinavian design, small distinctive details and wearer comfort, together with quality fabric and a reasonable price range.
\nAnother brand that has found its place on the Estonian catering scene is the Dutch premium brand Le Nouveau Chef<\/strong><\/a>, whose elegant and environmentally friendly chef jackets, chef aprons and service staff clothing have won the hearts of many restaurateurs.<\/p>\n

The return of the classics<\/h5>\n

Although eateries serving street food seem to dominate at the moment, several food critics and top chefs have spoken out about fine dining awakening from its slumber. Little by little, people are signalling a wish to spend their precious and scarce free time in a pleasant, aesthetically enjoyable setting. After all, a visit to a restaurant is not just about filling your stomach; it is quality time with loved ones, friends or business partners \u2013 a mini-trip in the best sense.<\/p>\n

Classic service still calls for the timeless white shirt, black vest and tie. Today's materials have changed so much that such an outfit need not be uncomfortable for service staff, as is all too often feared. It is worth considering here that an eatery might lay its tables more formally for dinner, thereby showing special respect for its guests, who have after all also prepared for dinner, spruced themselves up and dressed more smartly.<\/p>\n

The white chef jacket also has its classic place. It instils confidence in customers, stains cannot be hidden behind dark fabric, and it honours the traditional chef's profession. It jars when a knife, fork and spoon are placed on a bare table. It is not hygienic: the tabletop has been touched by hands beforehand, someone has sneezed on it, and so on. If the restaurant's concept does not call for tablecloths, a napkin saves the day and the cutlery can be placed on it.<\/p>\n

What defines the quality of professional clothing?<\/h5>\n

With textiles, wearer comfort and durability are very important. When it comes to quality, keep in mind the colourfastness of textiles, including when washed at high temperatures. The fabric must retain its original structure, and fabrics made from natural materials must be pre-treated to reduce shrinkage.
\nTo maximise service life, it is also crucial to choose the right partner later on to care for the products, i.e. a laundry service provider.<\/p>\n

Peeter Pihel, head chef and co-founder, Fotografiska Tallinn<\/strong><\/p>\n

My expectations of workwear are even higher than of the so-called everyday clothes we wear. It should fit well, the fabric should breathe, no seam should rub anywhere, it should stand up to a lot of washing and, well, it ought to look good too. In my kitchen I have always valued high-quality products and supported sustainable practices and a green mindset. It would be a shame, after all, if our workwear caused us unnecessary stress.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>The well-fitting clothing worn by both our kitchen and our front of house was fitted to us by the SMILETEX team. The choice was not hard to make, as kitchen and front of house found common ground very quickly. More than one man grew wings on putting on the chef jacket \u2013 posture straightened and confidence grew. The denim jacket and military-toned apron got the team breathing together and moving in rhythm. Pottering in the herb bed on the open terrace, everyone enjoys the attention, whether picking edible flowers for the kitchen or pinching some mint for a mojito. This uniform creates team spirit and makes the staff shine.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
