41 Events maltatoday, SUNDAY, 21 AUGUST 2016 New portal for Definitive(ly) Good Guide Malta's only objective survey-based restaurant guide launches new portal R E S T A U R A N T S M A L T A . COM, the online version of The Definitive(ly) Good Guide to Restaurants in Malta & Gozo, are proud to unveil their brand new portal, offering diners out in- formative and engaging informa- tion on the top rated restaurants in the Maltese islands. Following the success of their brand over the past 17 years, the team at The Definitive(ly) Good Guide Co. Ltd. were inspired to overhaul their online presence by launching a new mobile-ready website with attractive addition- al features. "As our online presence has grown exponentially, our team felt the need to keep abreast of the latest technological advance- ments by creating a modern vir- tual platform which combines functionality with an enhanced user experience design," said the founder of The Definitive(ly) Good Guide, Lisa Grech. "The end result has exceeded our expectations and, judging by the increase in the number of hits we are getting on www.res- taurantsmalta.com, that of our esteemed clientele." This exciting new portal fea- tures a number of upgrades tar- geted at engaging visitors to the site. A very popular option is the event planning service. Parties of ten or more may avail themselves of the 'Concierge Service' which takes the stress out of planning a special event. "Let us do the footwork for you, leaving you to kick back and enjoy the occassion, safe in the knowledge that your event is in the hands of the experts. After all, who better to advise you than the Good Guide's very capable team who have been success- fully organising their Restau- rant Awards Gala Dinner for the creme de la creme of the catering industry for the past 17 years," Grech said. Looking to share your dining experience? Have your say: once you log on, post your witty and informative comments on the landing page of the restuarant in question. Your comments may well end up on the next printed edition of The Definitive(ly) Good Guide to Restaurants in Malta & Gozo 2017- due out next December- just in time for Christmas. Striving to find ways to save time for busy diners out, the restaurantsmalta.com online booking feature has also been upgraded to a more efficient sys- tem, which allows fans to book the restaurant of their choice through that particular restau- rant's page. Collaborating on this project with placeabooking. com gives diners out the conven- ience of receiving their reserva- tion details straight onto their mobile telephone. What could be simpler? Already well-established on- line attributes also feature on the new website, www.restaurants- malta.com, such as the well-liked voting for 'Chef Of The Month' where two chefs go head-to-head in a popularity face-off; and the sought after foodie events pre- sented on the website which are updated regularly, much loved by local diners out.

Pleasant vibes at Banif's summer party EMPLOYEES from across Banif 's departments and branches got together for the Bank's annual summer party, organised by the Banif Sports and Social Commit- tee.

"Our team members give it their all in the office every day so events like this offer a well-deserved break and a chance to unwind and catch up with colleagues." emCare awards competition winner SALVU Calleja from Gudja is the lucky winner of an emCare mo- bile phone including connectivity for one year. In his winning entry Mr Calleja described emCare as a compa- ny that offers good service, fa- cilitates life and offers peace of mind. The competition was open to all emCare stand visitors dur- ing the 'Fiera l-Kbira' held at the Monte Kristo grounds in Luqa. Participants in this competition were asked to describe the ser- vices provided by emCare in 3 words. The emCare mobile phone comes with an SOS button on the f lip-side of the phone which can be used in case of emergencies. When pressed, the 24/7 emergen- cy contact centre is alerted and the centre immediately notifies the emergency services and next of kin with the exact pinpoint lo- cation of the user via GPS. Furthermore, through an online Web Self Care Portal, authorised users can remotely set-up and manage the phone's features and add contacts and family numbers, medication reminders, appoint- ments and doctor visits. Ensuring Famalco staff are fully trained AS part of an ongoing process, Famalco Group is busy with multiple training sessions over the summer. A yearly aviation security course took place on the 8th of July and was delivered to both seasoned and new delivery/ware- house personnel. This training course sought to set a standard on operating procedures for em- ployees through implementing security controls in the air cargo supply chain. It tackled three areas separately throughout its duration, examples of acts of unlawful interference, the com- pany's responsibilities and how it should follow procedures. Another training session re- garding Health and Safety took place on the 26th of July to highlight the legal require- ments, roles and responsibilities throughout all of the middle and top management. The training session outlined what was ex- pected from workers in order for them to be compliant with all laws. Special focus was given to the excavation and demolition sector due to the nature of their work; Faceworks and Fulani Properties were given priority, where the procedures they need to go through in order to main- tain the highest level of safety possible for all of their workers were outlined and reviewed. Participants who had taken part in aviation training re- ceived their certificates after the completion of the session, while participants of fork lift training and food handling courses that occurred earlier on in the year have received theirs by the 9th of August.
