One of Britain's most talented chefs, Marcus Wareing opened his eponymous restaurant at The Berkeley in September 2008. As a fine dining establishment, the restaurant was keen to print bespoke customer receipts on high quality paper, using a layout and font of its choosing. Working closely with The Berkeley, this was eventually achieved by adding a special program to change the layout sent via InfoGenesis POS, creating unique and elegant receipts that further reflect the restaurant's fine dining ethos.
