On November 12, 2^nd year Master’s students took part in a meeting conducted by the professional in the field of restaurant automation Khurshed Khojiev. The practical lesson was about the system “R_keeper” which helps to switch from traditional methods of restaurant management to the modern ones.

R_keeper is a trademark of the UCS company, under which software and hardware and software systems are sold, designed primarily for complex automation of restaurants.

Mr.Khojiev gave students a short talk about the history of the program and mentioned its benefits to not only the restaurant owners but also the staff.

“Better management can increase the quality of the service as well as leave memorable experience in guest’s mind and bring high sale figures to the owners through it”, said the guest.

To make the lecture more interactive for students were shown slides with the plan of the restaurant, information on Cash Desk, RK Management and Store House.

Students shared their experiences and opinions on this topic. There was a discussion about the role of waiters. During the speech, guest willingly told about the stories of his personal experience as a chef in Russia. The most common problems of Samarkand restaurants were also mentioned.

Mr.Khojiev introduced the R_keeper interface to the students, so they moved from theory to practice.

During the practical lesson, many students who have never worked in this field changed their minds and thought about catering as a complex system of hospitality and management.
