DINING AND DECIBELS

Speech perception is influenced by the speaker

in many ways.

The listener in a restaurant may have

normal hearing or suffer from hearing

loss.

Hard surfaces, high ceilings, limited

carpet and fabric coupled with

background music provides a recipe for limited conversation.

Restaurant noise levels are of keen

interest to restaurant owners, their patrons

and food critics.

COMMUNICATION TIPS FOR RESTAURANTS:

Avoid peak hours.

Dining early usually means

less noise.

Ask the manager to reduce the TV or music volume.

Look for main ideas in

conversations, you do not have

to get every word.
