Describe ‘a day in the life’ working at DYRSL in your current position.
I am the first person in the kitchen most mornings. I come in and sanitise everything then get to work. I weigh or measure ingredients and prepare fresh condiments. I then store the food, as well as cook all the vegetables to be served at the Bistro. Once I’ve check everything is cooked perfectly, I will then place the food on trays for immediate service.
