Good morning ma'am/sir. I'm Valerie and i will be your server for today. Welcome to our function entitled "Smoked: a grillicious explosion of flavor".
Today you'll experience 5 delectable dishes, starting with 'Think Pink' (made from pink lemons daw hehe) a refreshing glass of pink lemonade. Then for your appetizer, we present 'Squashed Soup' (a blend of squash and herbs with a swirl of heavy cream). For your main entree you'll be having the 'Bawk-Bawk-Be-Cue' (grilled chicken marinated in our top secret barbecue sauce) served with the 'Smashed Potatoes' and the 'Avocango Salad' (mixture of avocado and mango drizzled with olive oil and citrus juices). And last, but definetly not the least, we present the 'Crr-appumble' (chunks of apple, stewed in sweet cinammon sauce baked in layers of crumbly crusts) as your dessert.
I'll be back with your drinks in a while.
*huge smile still there* --> motto for the day? Grace under (enormous?) pressure!
The first of series A's (our class) four functions is finished! Whew.
I think each one us really needs this long weekend to recover..
The past few days were about long working hours, few to zero hours of sleep then waking up (really) early in the morning, standing for more than 3 hours while balancing heavy plates, subjecting oneself to the scrutiny of HRIM teachers,,,, and the list goes on. Sabi nga ng mga taga-higher years, just your typical function talaga.. We were warned early on. =)
Our group was the dining room crew at yesterday's function and that little number up there was our 'script'. We had to present each food as we serve it and we had to do it with a smile on our face. Kahit pagod na, puyat, mabigat ang dala, pagod, nangangawit, pagod at pagod, grace under pressure pa rin! Like we said yesterday, being tired is not an excuse anymore! Lahat ng tao pagod talaga.. Walang mas pagod sa kahit sino.. We just had to survive the culmination of all our efforts that 11:30-1:30pm period, then we're done..
I think mga 1:45pm natapos last customers namin, that's the only time everyone got to sit down and felt the exhaustion.. But at the same time relief! Tapos na! Wow. Hehe. One down, 3 more to go.. gogogo!
^Every 2 weeks ganyan kami from now on.. fun ^-^
