Learning More and More

Yesterday at work, I was put in charge of making some baked goods all by myself! Now I must say I am starting to become a fan of the baking, sous chef Jane always yells at me when I say that! ;) haha
So anyways I was first assigned to make carrot cake...alright can't be that hard...never made one before but just use the same cake method I learned in school. I was given a recipe and well yea just have to follow it. So I did and sure enough it turned out awesome! All of the staff were eating the trimmings and one of them even said it was the best that she's tasted at the restaurant! =) so that was definitely a high note!
Also during lunch service I did a lot more cooking and plating from the lunch menu. Made the club sandwich, open prawn sandwich, and other appetizers. I took pics of everything only to realize my phone was out of space and not saving them! So that was a bummer!
Then for dinner service I made scones all by myself and those turned out awesome! I'm on a baking roll! I also cooked and plated some dessert items...which were totally awesome! Filled with bright colors...of course phone was still full! =/
At the end of the night, sous chef Jane said that she can see a difference in me just in a few days! Still nervous but not nearly as much, I'm slowly building my confidence and she said she is really impressed with me! =)
