The Food & Beverage (F&B) operations performed reasonably well. F&B income<br />
for the full year across the three Guild Houses totalled $6.42 million, compared<br />
to $6.46 million in 2005.<br />
With the implementation of the new Information Management System, all<br />
F&B outlets at the three Guild Houses were equipped with a new Point-of-Sale<br />
(POS) system, reducing waiting time for members and improving overall service<br />
rendered.<br />

KRGH logged $2.95 million in overall F&B income, compared to $3.15 million in<br />
2005.<br />
Areas of improvement included the appointment of an experienced Chef de Cuisine,<br />
James Wang, to manage the western cuisine kitchen and the purchase of new<br />
equipment to enhance backend operations.<br />
