25 july 2011 - 29 july 2011 moselesele, carrot cakes and stock taking

25 July 2011- it was a theory day, chef wanted us to catch up on a bit of our logbooks, recipes and modules

26 July 2011-today me and Alon were put together to make a carrot cake that we suggested, and Natalie and Lilandi made cheesecake, our carrot cake was a success and because we had so much time, we started making chocolate sauces to go over the cake, we used one recipe to make 2 cakes that were put on top of each other

27 July 2011- i was sent to Moselesele, there was no one to work there, so i offered, i came there and on the board it was written that they want an omelet each for 9 o'clock, i heated up the plated, set up there table, cutlery and glasses, with all there necessary utensils in front of them, they were surprised to see a different chef in the kitchen and were surprised that i set up their table, just as they sat down, i served them with there foods and returned to the kitchen to clean, cleaned the kitchen, and just as i finished sweeping, they walked in and dropped off their plates, they were off, when i was finished i went to the kitchen where i was called aside and got a 100 rand tip, which made my day

28 July 2011-today was a full kitchen stock and equipment counting day, chef gave me the stock to count in the storage room, fridges, freezer and in the private cages, which i had to enter on the system, which needed to be committed and re-checked 2-3 times, and doing it alone wasn't easy when you aren't experienced on how to count different types of stock, it took mostly the whole day, but chef said i can use someone to help next time, so that i don't freeze to death, but next time i am striving to do better with paperwork and the stock, a kitchen cant run without orders and stock taking

29 July 2011-today i was allowed to work to 1 as it is my off weekend, me and Jay Dee had to do student lunch while doing the orders, we decided to do sweet and sour prego rolls, and for the chili lovers, we made a sweet chili prego, we got a lot of good compliments about our foods, and after student lunch we were off
