Lavisa Myra

I’m a food and beverage server with over 3 years’ experience in Nairobi, focused on order management, payment processing, and upselling. I stay current on menu items and make targeted recommendations that match individual customer needs.

As a Buffet Attendant at Emara Ole Sereni 5 Star Hotel (April 2023 – October 2025), I greeted guests, monitored buffet stations, and ensured items stayed fresh, well-presented, and replenished promptly. I coordinated with kitchen staff for smooth refilling, supported dietary inquiries and special requests, managed guest flow during peak hours, and handled portion control to minimize food waste.

Earlier, I worked as a Waitress at Paradiso Restaurant (October 2021 – February 2023). I delivered food and drinks discreetly, set up tables and linens, took cash or credit card payments, and performed bar closing duties including cleaning, sanitizing, and replenishing stock. I also streamlined service with the kitchen staff—reducing hours—and increased customer satisfaction scores by 20%, while upselling premium items that resulted in a 15% increase in average check size.

I bring strong restaurant and buffet service knowledge, including special dietary requirements, allergy awareness, and general food safety standards. I’m motivated by creating a welcoming dining atmosphere and delivering accurate, attentive service from reservation to seating.
