End of CBL!

Sorry for the late post, I was busy with school and my F and B wine project last week.

I finished CBL (my service and kitchen practical) !!!!

okay....that was 1 and a half weeks ago. Sorry for the delay. It was fun and interesting, overall. I did 2 days of pastry a la carte and made many desserts....so nice....and no stress compared to hot a la carte kitchen. For the last day of a la carte kitchen, I was in cold kitchen, having fun decorating the starter plates with salad and stuff.

Wow....2 weeks of service and 2 weeks of kitchen....just like that...it's over...I'm really gonna miss it. No school, no homeworks, no projects....just working and working and working...makes me feel like I'm in an actual cafe and restaurant during my practicals.

Hmm, I was looking through my previous post and I don't think I mentioned my 1st week of kitchen practicals. The 1st week of kitchen was quite boring...just cutting and cutting at the kitchen production. Oh yea, kitchen production means cooking for the student population at the cafe....so it's like mass cooking for a lot of people beforehand. A la carte, on the other hand, means to cook for 1 portion per plate when ordered. Of course, I found a la carte kitchen more exciting than kitchen production but still....CBL's over! (Yay and sad)

Now, I'm back to normal school life for 1 and a half weeks already. It's been normal....lessons and lessons...2 more weeks to final exams!!! Gonna study over the weekends....

And then after exams.......HOME SWEET HOME.....Yeaaa =)

Argh, I'm not bringing my gf back though. I think I told some of you that she's coming with me to Singapore for the long vacation but her family seems to be experiencing some difficulties so she needs to go back.

CHA kI ~~, I'm gonna miss you ~~~~

Kitchen Practical....phew.....

Wow....i just finished my second day of kitchen practical. I was really disappointed with myself though, I performed really badly for a-la-carte hot kitchen today. It's my second time at hot kitchen because I did that yesterday too and yet.... -.- screw ups... and panicking when so many firing of main course came at the same time. I mixed up garnish and damn, the rice today was so bouncy, I couldn't fix it properly. The decoration of the dishes were really bad and we even had the chefs to help us out.

It was so different yesterday. Amy, Grace and I were really focused on the presentation of the dishes. There were no mistakes yesterday and we were praised by chef Didier for our good teamwork but today was...argh... Sian 1/2Anyway, I was made the chef today because I had experience from yesterday but I don't think I did a good job though. Won't be surprised if I get a bad grade for today.

Oh well, I'll just look forward to tomorrow...I will in pastry making desserts....sweet~~

Oh yea, some pictures that were taken last saturday.
