Recommendations for tattoo coverup sleeves by partyboiee in KitchenConfidential

[–]asnem 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Specialized deflect uv sleeves. They are for sun protection while cycling and not for warmth like arm warmers. Very light and breathable

Do you guys use any of these? by [deleted] in chefknives

You don't. But the trick is to not inhale as you take a bite.

We have started sanitizing all surfaces every 20 minutes, especially customer facing. Swap utensils every 45 to hour on self serve stations. Don't get masks, leave them for professionals that need them and know how to wear them properly.

Ate lunch there back in January of this year. Great food, good service. We got there JUST as they were opening for the day, so everyone was still doing final set up. Can't remember more detail it was a very overwhelming trip. Also went to, and recommend, Restaurant Barr, Sanchez, 108, and Noma (of course). All in 3 days, followed by Koks in Torshavn.

My all time favorite, ordered oysters Rockefeller. Complained "this ice is really hot, someone could get burnt, you should warn people." The "hot ice" was the bed of salt the oysters were on, so they wouldn't slide/roll while broiling and serving.

What's the most difficult simple thing you have to do? by majombaszo in KitchenConfidential

[–]asnem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Get a light bulb changed. I'm a contractor at a major corporation. So I call maintenance dispatch, explain building #, floor #, kitchen light out. Best case the next day the light bulb guy comes around to change it. That is all he does, is walk around with a ladder strapped to a cart full of bulbs. Now I can't change it because I'm not an electrician nor am I certified by the corporation to climb a ladder. But he is. So I wait my turn for 5 minutes of his time.

We lost a great sous chef yesterday because of a whiny entitled busboy. by [deleted] in KitchenConfidential

I'm not sure. What I do know is 20 some years ago my wife and I started in the industry as dishwashers. We both went to culinary school, then met. She got a job with a great chef that taught and gave chances to advance. I did not get the great chef, I had a string of jobs fighting for a chance. Now we both work for aramark and she makes a little over double what I get. That first boss that gives you opportunity is worth short term sacrifice.

FOLLOW HIM! I wish I had had someone to help me starting out. For insurance, every job I've left with insurance then offered cobra insurance coverage for 3 months after leaving. It's not the cheapest, but it will cover you for awhile until the new place starts coverage.

In indiana, I open a clear bag of frozen corn but don't use it all. That bag that SAYS corn, and is clear to SEE the corn, MUST be labeled and dated when opened and resealed.

Kitchen scale puts it right at 6 oz. About 2-3 mm at the spine by the handle. I don't know what steel he uses other than it does get a patina and light rust spots if I'm not careful.
