Jerusalem has been holding its first waiters’ race, copying a popular attraction in France. The French version of the race, an eight kilometre (five mile) run, requires waiters to balance the tray at shoulder level and support it with only one hand. Israeli-Arab and Jewish waiters carry trays of wine and chicken as they compete in a race in Jerusalem. The winner will be sent to represent Israel in an international waiter competition in Paris. Dressed in formal uniforms, around 30 waiters took to a 500 metre track at an East Jerusalem hotel, balancing trays with food and a full glass of red wine.
