Had to purchase this for a required Food and Beverage Cost Control class. This textbook is dull, dull, dull. I don't expect an accounting textbook to entertain me, but this is awful. Too many paragraphs are peppered with redundancies; seems like there is a fair amount of filler here. An editor should address the long run-on sentences.As with all American Hotel & Lodging textbooks, the line length is too long and makes reading difficult. Larger margins, more subheadings, and professional-looking diagrams would help. The diagrams in AH&L textbooks look like they were done in circa-90s flowchart software.Instructors, please look at Lea Dopson's Food and Beverage Cost Control or Clement Ojugo's Practical Food and Beverage Cost Control texts rather than this one. They are written better, the explanations are clearer, and the book layouts are professional-looking.
Very helpful; written in a manner easy to understand.
It was delivered on time and was exactly as decribed
