Marinated Mushrooms

Thursdays for me is my day of where I have my $3 Cheeseburger Combo with Extra Pickles from McDonalds for dinner before I start my four hour practical in Kitchen Ops...

On this night I tested McD's again, as last week I had trouble with my extra pickles, having had a huge amount of extra pickles put on the week before hand, I had no extra pickles on this one and NO MUSTARD!! So it was a test, I have the same people always serve me, and I informed them of my issuse with the pickles I was asked how many I said whats the limit? I was told it was up to me I asked how many I actually get and I was inform ONE pickle!! Thats one pickle slice and it varies in size...so she put on Extra Extra Extra EXTRA pickles for me and I said it beter have mustard it didnt last week! I got my burger somewhat satisfied - hey its a cheap meal to put something in my stomach to get me through the fours before I eat what i make...!

Prawn Fritters

I went in early and was ready and we were underway with cooking we were so well prepared we struggled with something to do for a whole hour having prepared everything all that was left to do was cook really....and wash any dishes we didnt need.

Zane forgot the mushrooms and beans and we were told off for having our meatballs sitting out for long...lol I got the yelling at more so the rest as Im chef de partie!

Pork Meatballs in Tomato Sauce

We got some really good feedback from the lecturer on our meals again, and we then made our final choice on the final menu - sadly I didnt get what I wanted I really wanted to do the Mezze Platter however the rest liked the Spanish...oh well...

Squid with Gramolata

I need to now work on my requesition forms. time management, price costing... and do up the menus and buffet cards...but the hours seems to have escapsed on me today - I have the paper ready to make them though, I might go out to my scrap room and bring some things in to help me and do them inside, I have work in the morning and dont know how much time I will have to do them tomorrow when I get home...

Parika and Almond Beans
