YHE Flairtending Heats Up!

Many tertiary schools with hotel and restaurant management programs in the country have a lot to showcase. One of these is their bar management course where students enjoy flairtending. Looking around to see who's hot, DLS-CSB SHRIM, on its Young Hoteliers' Expo, has extended invitations to HRM schools to participate in the Flair Factor Individual Competition which was held on July 19 at the Multi-purpose Hall.

Schools that participated were University of Santo Tomas, San Sebastian College Recoletos, Holy Angel University, Arellano University, and Our Lady of Fatima University. Each participant was given 7 minutes to show his/her flairtending skills.

You should have seen how participants awed the audience with their nail-biting show of throwing and mixing skills. The audience was likewise entertained by our very own champions, Raminad Ong, (Champion, TGI Friday's First Flairtending Contest) and Mathew Burgos (Grand Champion, Del Monte Flairtending Competition). In the end, the following were adjudged winners:

• First Place - Arellano University
• Second Place - Holy Angel University
• Third Place - San Sebastian College

Indeed, the students left lingering impressions of taste and entertainment, close to their professional counterparts.
