I <3 Restaurant Service

I love restaurant service. It's a great challenge because we really do have to serve paying customers. Also, the cool thing about is that we get to prepare brand new recipe s each time.

Today I was assigned "Chef de Partie." Pretty much I needed to keep track of orders during service as well as help plate. Of course, I helped with mise en place before service started. I worked with Jacob and Chris tonight.

Our dish was cod: Cabillaud aux cinq saveurs, ananas rôti, beurre blanc aux fruits de la passion. I loved our dish. It was a myriad of steps which composed each part of the dish.

Chef Stephan's favorite phrases?

"Qu-est-ce que c'est cette merde ?! Qu-est-ce que c'est ce bordel ?!"

(What is this shit? What is this mess?)

Eldar was sous-chef of the week. When you are sous-chef, you work Service en Salle - front of the house pouring wine/water, serving dishes, and explaining the menu. Justin from Texas was the sous-chef from the other class.

He is the class clown, can't you tell?
