Kitchen Duty

Tonight I worked in the suites at Canal Park. I got to help out the kitchen chefs and servers on the suite level and together we kept the kitchen running for the night. Unfortunately I was washing and drying dishes the majority of the time, but it felt good to be able to help out and be appreciated by the workers for my effort. And although this task may sound unpleasing we did get fed throughout the night. Whenever the chefs messed up or had extra, we got to eat what was there and it was fantastic! Along with doing dishes, I also got the opportunity to cook and prepare food for the customers. This was a learning experience for myself, because personally I make a solid bowl of cereal but besides that cannot cook. We prepared burgers and Italian dishes; I also made shish kabobs and because Chef Jason is awesome he allowed me to make my own that I could enjoy. I worked alongside another RubberDucks intern named David and together we knocked out a ton of dishes and got to eat well while doing it. Operating the suite level is a big part for the team because you have the responsibility of satisfying the fans that paid the most to be there. Everything had to be done close to perfection and slacking off isn't an option. I really enjoyed this experience because I got to see how hectic the kitchen can be on a game day and shadow some amazing chefs that were kind enough to let me help out. I'm loving this project and I'm upset that its almost over :/.
