Recommended: Importance of catering

For my internship I worked at Brother Luck Street Eats in Colorado Springs, off of Colorado and 10th street. They are open Tuesday through Sunday from 10am to 10pm. I worked morning shifts mainly because of scheduling conflicts with school and my other job. There were a couple catering events and night events I did work. In the mornings, I would help with prep for the day and working the line. By the end of my internship, Brother, the owner of Brother Luck Street Eats’, was so impressed by my work, he hired me on with his staff.
My goals when I went into my internship were to learn more about catering specifically, however I wanted to learn as much as possible. I completed all of my individual goals that I started out with, as well as having …show more content…

About half way through my internship Chef Mark and Brother started to ask me what I was doing once I graduated. They began to ask me if I would work for them because they loved my work ethic and skill. We were going to wait until my internship was over, but they needed me sooner with the catering season coming up. The restaurant hired me on as their catering chef. I began to work on the catering as well as open the kitchen and run the lunch shift. It was a lot of information to learn in a short period of time however I began to get the hang of things in about a week. Ending the second week in this position I started to get less shifts. Then, they moved one of the night line cooks up to my lunch shift position. I have also not received a pay check yet in five weeks when we are supposed to be paid by weekly. I asked if I was not completing the tasks at hand in the morning shifts and I was told I was doing a wonderful job. So for now, I am in a limbo of what to do. I am hopeful within this month catering will pick up and I will be primarily on those since my evaluations have been well and we have just been in the slow season. Although this is not a terrible downside to the internship, it has been a difficult month

    The calendar marked March 2, 2016. It was around 6:30 pm or so and Nadya had just got home from school after a long day. Before she was able to get comfortable, her mom silently handed her an eight by eleven-inch white envelope with The Culinary Institute of America at the top left. This could only mean one thing, but she didn't wanted to get her hopes up too high. She nervously opened the envelope and slowly pulled out the letter that was in it. She then read the letter to herself while her mother stood there watching. After reading the first line and ignoring the rest, she screamed and then her mom followed. She had just found out that she was accepted into her dream school, The Culinary Institute of America.

  • In-N-Out Burger Essay

    695 Words  | 2 Pages

    In-N-Out Burger is a fast food restaurant found throughout the United States, however these restaurants are heavily concentrated on the West Coast as the advertisements and marketing techniques used serve to primarily attract those consumers. With this concentration of restaurants being primarily on the West Coast, many wonder as to why, in the nearly seventy year existence of the restaurant, In-N-Out has not set forth many efforts to conquer the Eastern region of the United States. In analyzing the consumer appeal of In-N-Out it is evident that contemporary American culture is generally defined by geographical locations. In-N-Out Burger attempts to portray this American West Coast lifestyle that involves much relaxation, risk, and simplicity,

  • Personal Narrative: My First Mexican Restaurant

    Many restaurants fail during their first year because of lack of planning and I can tell you this from my experienced that we had three years ago with our first Mexican restaurant. What I have learned from that experienced is to write out a plan and be financially prepared. Do as much research as possible on the location. Look into how much traffic there is? Is it a busy area? Is there enough parking? What businesses are near? Also, look into how much I can afford on the rent and for how long do I want the lease to be and be sure to understand all the details on the lease. Another option is to have a lawyer explain the lease, if I do not understand it and if there is any changes that I can negotiate with the landlord to change. Afterwards,

  • Personal Narrative: My First Mcdonald's Humburger

    The memory of my first McDonald’s hamburger is still fresh in my mind. I can easily recall the way that the acidic pickles overpowered my senses, how their pungent fragrance wafted through my car and invaded my clothes. I can feel the soggy buns disintegrating atop my tongue, so unlike any other bread I have ever had, and the meager patty crumbling between my teeth. These flavors and textures are memorable because they were novel, because I was not raised on such hamburgers but tried one for the first time during a recent family car ride home from Canada. My parents were puzzled by my desire to consume a food that they had always regarded as taboo.
