The Beginning of a Chef's Life Pt 3

"Add-On"

It's no secret, I'm still on salad bar prep but just like the Yahoo Bar...I have been given "Add-Ons". Oh Lawd...I have to make ranch dressing! Apparently, this is a part of the salad bar prep. I don't know nothin' bout makin' no ranch dressing man (in my Gina voice from Martin)! I dreaded getting the ingredients. It seems like everyone is watching. I'm confident in baking more so than I am in savory. I must admit, I get a little nervous. Nevertheless, I made it and it wasn't that bad. You should have seen me though; I had to drag this big container of mayonnaise to my station. I could promise this thing weighs more than me. Then I had to pick up and drag the big mixing bowl to the big machine with the big whisk. I'm sure it was a sight to see. All in all the ranch dressing turned out pretty good.

Everyone seems to be pretty cool. They speak as they enter the building when their shift starts, pretty much keep to themselves unless they have to communicate about the dishes being served, does their part to contribute to the success of the kitchen and there is a lot of singing. I can't complain.

The salad bar prep is more of the same, day in, day out. Nothing more to this except making sure the salad bar is properly prepared and constantly stayed on top of in order to offer the members a presentable spread.
