TÜROB recommends a breakfast plate/set menu instead of the open buffet

TÜROB recommended that the open buffet be eliminated in breakfast, lunch and dinner service at member hotels and replaced with a ‘breakfast plate and set menu’ approach.

The Association of Turkish Hoteliers (TÜROB) is continuing its work on practices that can be implemented in the accommodation sector as part of efforts to prevent the coronavirus outbreak. In this regard, the TÜROB management decided to recommend eliminating the open buffet practice in breakfast, lunch and dinner service at member hotels.

Breakfast plate and set menu

In the letter sent from TÜROB to member hotels, it was stated: “Currently in operation among the common areas where guests are together are breakfast and dining halls. For this reason, we recommend that the ‘open buffet’ practice be eliminated in all hotels and restaurants and replaced with a ‘breakfast plate and set menu’ approach.” Across Turkey, breakfast service at accommodation facilities is predominantly offered using the ‘open buffet’ method.
