In our modern world of handheld point-of-sale systems, it’s not too often we have to worry about taking paper dockets to the kitchen. But it’s important to get a handle on writing clear and concise kitchen dockets regardless.

Technology isn’t always reliable – things can go wrong and when they do, we all default to our trusty pen and paper system.
