I want to know too. We used to do kitchen audits where we looked at food costs, sales, what ingredients could be used in multiple dishes, waste (errors, theft, damage) etc. We did that weekly or monthly, not every shift.

Is a recipe audit making sure line cooks aren't cutting corners when preparing a dish or making changes they thought were better without clearing that through the head chef? When that happened my boss would just call them a fucktard and make them run the dish pit for an hour. Or clean the grease trap if they couldn't be cured by other means.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 4 18:06:38 2022 No.17225118 >>17222201 A recipe audit is basically weighing the finished product and comparing the weight to the weight of the recipe' ingredients. It's not perfect, but it'll show how close your prep guy followed the script.

Cover the flattop with sheet pans for 10 minutes or so. Very carefully remove hot as fuck pans. Give them to dish guy. Warn him of temp. (Pinche Caliente guey!) Dump a half gallon of water on the flattop. Let it go insane a bit. When most of the water has evaporated, scrape. Super clean in seconds.

Same thing minus the water for flame broiler. Get it white hot and scrape.

The sound of the chit printer gives me anxiety. I joke about it with the bartender and the head cook at my local Vietnamese place sometimes - Dinh usually greets me with "Oh shit, the trees are screaming in Vietnamese again!

I haven't seen a dish pit in years, and even then it was only when our dishboy would quit mid-shift. Aside from some quick shifts at a catering company these past two years, I haven't been in any kitchen but my own in years... Nah man, I started on apps/Garde and FOH, and wound up just plugging holes in the boat ("Well, our saucier isn't coming back from that smoke. Can you run grill and sauce for an hour until Jim gets here?"... "Jim's here, but Janine just quit. Can you wear your blacks tomorrow and serve the lunch rush? You've got your smart serve right? Can you help on bar 'til 6? You're my fucking hero dude, you can fuck my sister when I'm done.") until I wound up taking over a sort of sub-management role 3 years later.

So, having dealt with snooty clientele, backwoods chefs, stoned dish wenches, musicians, event planners, brides, grooms, and a handful of TV crews, I think I'm in an ok position to determine normal and abnormal social interactions. It might be Dunning and Kruger talking, but I think I'm even fairly decent at code switching between them.

my kitchen only had nine pans, six pans, "long pans" (which is what we called the 1/3 size for some reason), half pans and full pans.

I liked switching out the shallow and deep six pans depending on what kind of volume we were gonna get hit with. this didn't aggravated my coworkers but the fact that I cared how deep the pans were definitely did.

Christ man. The first restaurant I ever worked at, both the chef and the first sous would kill a gagger each in three tokes, say "Good meeting!" at the exact same time, and fuck back off inside. I'd be left with half a cigarette still, sweating from how quickly I'm trying to kill the thing, but not wanting to run back inside yet because my prep was always done, and my station was always how I needed it to be.

years ago I worked at a hibachi restaurant with my wife. it was the worst job, and we found out years later that she was stealing more than half our tips. we also worked there 6-7 days a week 12 hour shifts and it was the most depressing time of my life. however we would grab food off plates when we would clear them. so at the end of the night we'd each have a box stuffed full of lobster, filet mignon, shrimp, and sushi. people would order 8 or 9 rolls on top of their hibachi and eat not even half of it so of course I'm taking the $75+ worth of sushi or whatever was left. I'm convinced it strengthened my immune system because I haven't gotten covid and I worked the whole pandemic time. I was also drunk the majority of the time I was at that restaurant. I'd either steal liquor from the bar (bc we didn't have an actual bartender so the bar was unattended most of the time), or I'd make a to-go cup of the hot sake from the kitchen. I did a lot of drugs at that job as well, and still managed to do a good job and get good tips, but I have no idea how I did it.

One time my boss shoved a pan with some mushrooms or something into our small oven to stay warm, then somehow forgot about it in the rush that evening. Several trays of potatoes got baked in that oven before he realized the pan was still shoved in the back a couple days later, handle now blackened and the contents hardened.
I used some of the green degreaser shit that comes in these bottles to soak it, scrubbed it with the steel wool, pan looks cleaner than it ever has now and has the shiniest finish in the whole kitchen. Yes he still uses it.

the restaurant is just what I do to afford my lifestyle. I own my car, I rent a downtown apartment in an alright city, I drink and do drugs, and I have expensive hobbies that I probably spend more on in a month that you do on your rent. I make ~$2k+ a week just working 4 days. I'm also able to leave for weeks or months at a time and come back whenever I need to, which allows me to tour with my band and the other bands I manage. not all restaurant employees are poorfags believe it or not. I make as much as or more than my wife does as a nurse and my life is way more flexible, and my job is a lot easier than hers.

I've seen people get cook jobs in my kitchen because it's a hobby just to end up despising it. Too bad I might get fired soon because I just repeatedly swore at my boss over text because the company changed the covid testing times without telling anyone ahead of time and my boss told me I had to come in tomorrow during a snow storm and get tested in the morning 4 hours before when I usually wake up.

I ran kitchens for Bennigans in the mid 90s. The shit that went down. The liquor room was the 'licking room,' every cook was illegal(*), my boss did coke openly, one of the bartenders was a hooker, the produce guy was a weed dealer (this slowed deliveries by about the same amount that morale improved, ) and on and on.

(*) seriously. At one point, the company ran a check of employee SSNs. We had to fire them all. Came back the next day with new ID cards. Hysterical.

i managed a jimmy johns downtown in a college town, busy as fuck bar rush etc, fuck that job. anyway on football game days the entire downtown area /ped mall would turn into a zombie movie war zone and we'd always have retards doing the absolute dumbest shit, getting in fights, throwing up, etc

but the the most impressive retarded thing was, i sent a guy to the supply closet to get napkins or rags or something and he comes back and goes "you should go back there right now." i went and opened the door and there were two blacked out people, an older guy and a college girl, laying on the floor clearly about to have sex. like so drunk they didn't even register my presence. there was a jug of this pink sanitizer stuff open next to them and the guy was just finishing up lubing his half-limp dick with it, about to go in raw. i almost wanted to just close the door and let them go about their business and deal with the consequences but figured somehow it would come back and bite me in the ass so i yelled at them to get the fuck out and they ran out a second later. i am sure the guy lost a few layers of dick skin to that little scenario

Around Detroit.

All the Bennigan's in Michigan were franchises, with little to no interaction with corporate. So when corporate Bennigan's filed for bankruptcy, we were actually unaffected. But, everyone saw on the news that "Bennigan's is going out of business", so they stopped coming in, driving us out of business.

Has anyone ever heard of a kitchen/BOH manager not encouraging hand washing? Couple years ago I had a kitchen job for about two weeks before the place abruptly closed down, and one of the quirks of my BOH manager was kitchen employees shouldn't "waste their time" washing our hands in the sinks. Instead, he kept a bucket of dilute bleach and dish soap on the expo table and told everyone to dip their hands in that instead. I thought it was insane and never did it, always opting to wash my hands like a normal person. It pissed him off but he never got the chance to really do anything about it since the place closed down for reasons that weren't related to health regulations. I just wondered if this is a common practice and I was being a puss?

Yeah, it got pretty bad where I was working. One time, when we were all really stressed around the holidays, I had a heart to heart with my manager and really opened about everything that was really stressing me out, at work and in my personal life - I was on the verge of quitting. He puts a hand on my shoulder, looks me in the eye, a tear seemingly about to roll down his cheek, and softly speaks one word: "heard"

I worked at a JJs for about a year in a college town. I heard 3rd shift stories about fifths of vodka shattering in the lobby and delivery drivers getting tits for tips regularly.

They used to pour this cleaning compound on the flat top grill every night, while it was still ripping hot. The vents didn’t ever catch all the fumes coming off that stuff as it boiled. If you inhaled any, it made your nose and throat feel like they had been coated in artificial butter, or something. I left that place after a few weeks of coughing up yellow shit.

It's one saving grace is if you live a party lifestyle, stay up late and sleep in anyways, are at least fairly extroverted, and are in your mid-20s or younger. It feels a little like a high school party in an odd setting. It's just not sustainable. The groups of employees usually live a lifestyle that makes me depressed nowadays. Honestly tho a good place to meet girls if you're horny and not autistic, and also if you're looking for some drug connections.
