It's the pace that I have been craving for, having orders coming in, and needing to fill them out as quick as possible. Even though it was just a Pantry shift, it was still wonderful.
Ronnia would be taking me under her wing today.
When I first arrived, I was to make up a few Parfaits for Starbucks, which is located in our lobby. This was easy enough, and once I was done I moved onto preparing mixed berry cups. These are used for room service and dining room. In the morning we do up an insert worth of them, and this way they are always ready to go.
After that was done, I did some sheets of bacon, that would be used the next day for breakfast, sandwiches and salads.
Prep work was done when the morning was slow, but once we hit a rush, everything was dropped to get food out as quickly as possible.
My work area was small, but I welcome the tight spaces, everything was organized and within reach, and even the rush flowed smoothly. Everything had a backup waiting for it, so there were no last minute panicking. If we only had a side salad on our order, we would then place the plate over to the other side of the kitchen, where the plate was completed.
I was shown how to make up a fruit plate, the fruit was already sliced and ready, all that was needed was some arranging and adding some berries to spruce it up.
This is our club sandwich on rye, it was usually done on toasted whole wheat bread though, unless a customer requested otherwise.
Ronnia used inserts Then I learned how they make their Caesar Salad,
and it all came together on a plate.
Then I learned how to make their Smoked Chicken Salad, Lobster Rolls, Lobster Cobb Salad.
It was a super fun time, I loved every minute of it, time flew by. It was just an all around good time.
