Advanced/Apprentice: Culinary Chronicles, Capers & Canards

Jimmy Widmann Class 1 Culinary blogs: October October Snack Shack Blogs During my October snack shack workings I worked as a cashier. Each night everything went pretty smoothly. One of the nights was exceptionally busy as it was boys soccer senior night, and I noticed something that could make the snack shack run better. The fat sandwich station tends to get behind on orders and I believe it would be beneficial to train the people working that station before the games so that they know how to make each sandwich. At the boys soccer game on multiple occasions the person who was grilling had to go over to help the fat sandwich person, which simply slowed production. Another suggestion would be to assign everyone their position at the beginning of the week or something along those lines and have one day where those people train for the job that they have so that everyone can work more efficiently. Another suggestion is that we could keep a tally of which fat sandwich’s we sell the most of and then prepare one or two of the most popular sandwiches. This would be a good way to improve efficiency in the snack shack and make the customers happy.
