Line Cooking

Did some practice for the actual service days today by letting 1st term students order off our menu. I was at the chicken station, which takes the longest to cook. So now we have some idea of when to fire the chicken when it's ordered at least. Not that I know when I'll be there again or anything. :P Wonder what my next station will be.. hopefully desserts. I love plating those things and I'm guessing it's the coldest station in the kitchen. ^_^ It is not pretty when it starts heating up in there, and of course the damn neck-kerchief is the first thing to heat up. D:
Service went... well enough, I guess? There was a lot of confusion on the servers end because it was there first time, and now and then we had trouble getting all of the entrees on one ticket done at the same time, but hopefully it'll smooth out.

Okay, picture time. xD



First picture are our three starter dishes. From right to left: Squash Soup, Pear Salad, and a fried Oyster appetizer. That's the order they get served in..
The second picture are the starters next to all of our entrees; A Vegan Garbanzo Pattie dish, Chicken with glazed carrots, mushrooms (chantrelle and button,) and potatoes, Steak with greens, blue cheese, corn, potatoes, and demi-glace, Salmon with mustard greens on top of a squash puree, and a Shrimp pasta dish. :)
