Ms Aniki Fong - Senior Captain, Royal Garden Hotel

 

My name is Aniki and I would like to take this opportunity to share some of my remarkable memories with you during my studies at HITDC.

Having finished the Food and Beverage Service Course in 1998 at HITDC, I joined the Royal Garden Hotel as a junior waitress at the Balcony Lounge. During my first three years in the Food and Beverage Department, I did a lot of cross training within the Royal Garden Hotel and, definitely I acquired a lot of technical knowledge prior to my promotion to Lounge Captain in 2002.

With an intense interest for working in the hospitality industry, I further developed myself to work in an up market free standing restaurant in town, where I was able to expose myself to more knowledge about how to run a restaurant business.

In 2003, I re-joined the Royal Garden Hotel as a Senior Captain. Though I have been working in this industry for five years, I strongly believe that the technical skills and knowledge that I learnt at the HITDC in 1998, were really useful and invaluable and, it gave me a solid background for my advancement in my chosen career.

I have always remembered these words from our instructors, "Customers are always our first concern" and "We always have to be very positive when receiving instructions from our superiors even though you might not accept them".

All in all, I totally believe that a sincere manner and hardworking attitude are the basic criteria to becoming successful in the hospitality industry.

May I wish you all a prosperous future in your chosen career.
