and i dont know for you guys,
(particularly to chefs-wannabe)
but i HATE!
and i mean i reallllyyyyyyy HATE
wrokign with a tall hat.
yes its like the charcoal hat.
weird ehh??!
im just a trainee leys,
why the super the over the top kinda hat?
evertime when i enter the walk-in chiller or freezer,
it comes off,why? cos im to tall.
HAHAHAHHA.
everytime i bend down,
definitely it will hit something for sure when i look up.
as i was saying,
the first thing when i came in the kitchen,
she (my pastry chefs a woman btw!)introduced me to the kitchen staff.
well there was only one,
so with her, karen and me,
it makes 3.
how cool is that?
ONLY 3 per shift :D
and karen is pregnant!
BUT,she walks and works much faster than me!
seriously.
so i plated the NYONYA KUEHS,
which were so colourful and tempting
on a plate.
for both dinner and lunch.
then i was taught how to do
what Swissotel is popularly known for,
PENGAT DURIAN!
hahahahaha!
but really, its nice leys.
so i did 30kg of them and omg,
i had a headache laaaaa!
the smell was.OH LALALALAS!
sufiyan would have been dead.TRUST ME.
then i did BISCOTTIS.
and they were so crispy and nutty.
its used for their creme brulee.
then i made SUNRISE TOMATO BREAD.
it totally looks like our EC bread,
just in the shape of WALNUT BREAD.
and thenn,
i rolled out some sweet dough for what i heard is for
"sweetdogs"

and by then i knock off already :)
and the chef said,
"tomorrow i will teach you how to deco the cakes,
