jerks

bleh.... had to stay an hour+ past closing tonight (sun). people decide that hey, even though the restaurant closes we want to wait around and order food, even worse is the fact that i was the only person working pantry tonight (had some help from alfredo tho) which also means i have to wait till everyone leaves till i can close down the dessert station - and of course, had 3 people order desserts at 9:45 - 45 mins past closing...

but its all good... wasnt really all that busy, had a few spurts but not too bad (glad it was kinda slow since i was the only person working pantry) sucks that next week i gotta take off for prom =P i mean i will no doubt enjoy prom, but i do enjoy working at mitchells, and im not gonna be interning there much longer.

well, really frustrated with a lot of stuff, so this is brief

bye

wafflecopter

well, its almost the end of the year already! been busy with school and site...

interesting thing i got to do today, i got to prep chickens! basically had to take a boning knife and remove the spine, then cut the carcass in half mmm mmm mmm... >.> was pretty gross but not the first time ive had to do that sort of thing.

if only people knew how gross some food was before it is cooked... lobster part of lobster bisque is just the head part, aka heart spleen and brain, yum yum >.>

anywho, gotta get through the gross stuff to get to the good stuff i guess

mothers day

mmm - had to work on mothers day... wasn't busy exactly (saturday got a little hectic) but there was actually stuff to be done. Had to go in an hour early since everyone was eating early that night... basically the same old same old, gotta make the whipped cream by hand and that takes a lot of effort. They were giving away two giant chocolate covered strawberries to all the mothers that came in and man, did those things look good.
Didn't really make that many salads, and the ones i did were splits. There were a ton of desserts (muahahaha) though - creme brullees were pretty popular. Unfortunately we got a new torch and i had to figure out how to use it, and it requires a bit more control. i'm really getting the hang of things doing pantry, only a few things that i almost never do that im a bit shaky on, and i know i have all of the deserts down. not much else to report for now, cheers

mmmm

hey hey kids, gotta say, I'm tired. Even though its only six hours of work - it gets pretty intense.
Today it got a "little" busy - had a bunch of peoples proms to cook for. Man, even though it wasn't all that busy it was a rush - fun but tiring... always something to do. What sucked the most about today was - after we had cleaned up - more people showed up, so we had to cook more. Anywho... tired, hungry, and well... pancake batter. Gonna go grab some food and crash - still more to be done tomorrow (although it is usually pretty dead on sundays)... cheers
