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!

Week 7 at UGA!
This is our 7th week at UGA and we are still finding new and exciting things to do.
Monday we spend the morning with Beth the University health inspector. We did a mock health inspection of Taste of Home Cafe and Tate Cafe. Beth showed us what she looks for during an inspection. There is a lot of details that an health inspector look that a person may not think of. Its Beths last week at UGA, and it was very nice of her to take time out of her busy last week to show us a mock inspection.
Tuesday I shadowed Bryan the head Chef at Bolton. Bryan and I went around to check everything is going well with the cooks and the food lines. After Breakfast we started working on some of the food for a tasting for the special dinner in the Fall. I made the chard,tomato and beans soup, which taste great! In the afternoon we went to the tasting to see what all of the other Chefs made.
Wednesday I spend the Day with Shelly! We spend the day working on forecast for the next week. Shelly showed me how she decides on how much meal to forecast in FoodPro. And how important it is to check past dates and menu to see how popular the items were before making it again.
Thursday we got to tasted our recipes for the closing banquet. We wanted to make sure everything was great before the day gets here. Catherine made a great team in the kitchen, and all of the recipes we tried turned out great.
Friday we spend the day with Linda from campus eateries. We got to see how all the different eateries are ran day to day.
