Week 7 in Athens

We started off the weekend with a mock health inspection. We spent a couple hours with Beth, the Health Inspector for the University. This week was her last week and she was an absolute sweetheart for taking the time to show us what she did for the foodservice department. She also gave us some great insight on how to score 100 on inspections. I can see why everyone will be so sad to see her go. The rest of Monday was spent working on our tossing greens project. I am trying to organize all the information we’ve gathered, so it will actually make sense!

Tuesday and Wednesday we shadowed the chefs at the Summit and Bolton. I really enjoy being in the kitchen, so these days were pretty fun for me. Shelly and I went over some Food pro things for our banquet. Bolton was expecting a health inspection the day I shadowed Bryan, so we spent a majority of the day preparing for that. The county never actually came, but it was pretty nerve racking waiting.

Thursday we spent awhile at the summit testing a couple of our recipes for the banquet. We made a Sheppard’s pie, a chicken recipe, and a strawberry tart. All three were delicious and I am very excited to see the whole menu come together!

Friday we spent the day with Campus Eateries. Lynda, Josh, John, and everyone else spending the day with you all was a lot of fun I have to say! Managing all those sites is a lot of work and you all do a great job keeping everyone on the same page, but don’t let Tamela I know how to run a cash register :)

Only two more weeks…have a good vacation Bryan it was great to meet you, and Mr. Fair I hope you’re doing great and have a speedy recovery!
