Al llegar a “El Italiano” — restaurante de gran tradición en Guadalajara, México desde hace 20 años — es prácticamente garantía una cocina de altura en un ambiente de primera; sin embargo, lo que verdaderamente sorprende es la rapidez en el servicio. Generalmente es difícil encontrar el binomio perfecto: calidad en los alimentos y rapidez en el servicio. La implementación de un software especializado para restaurantes le ha permitido a “El Italiano” no sólo servir suculentos platillos, sino llevarlos a la mesa en un tiempo mucho menor al esperado. |

Canned tuna victory
The top news in the tuna business is the complete victory of the US tuna industry in a California court. A judge accepted all the arguments put forward by the tuna industry as to why California’s Proposition 65 should not supersede federal law, and as a result ruled that California has no right to require mercury warning
labels on cans of tuna. The outcome means that efforts to force retailers and restaurants to post these warnings may fail as well.
