Whistle while you work

11.00am I open the restaurant, walk downstairs and change to chef coat.
11.30am I finish setting up the kitchen. Now the hard part, cooking employee's meals. Oak gets a PCU noodle. Antonio gets a fried rice. Whenever I go for A la carte dish, that means I'm lazy. I have a list for today production. There are
Chocolate cake
Semifreddo
Creme brulee
Carrot puree
Green curry
Cranberry sauce
Pastry cream
To toast nut and seed
11.50am I starts to make creme brulee, a saturday morning job. I cook my self a vegetable curry, for I have no apetite for meat.
12.15am I call Yo to make sure he buy grocery in for weekend use but he doesn't answer. Maybe he's sleeping. Whatever, I have another 40 minutes until creme brulee would be done. Let's play my iphone a little bit.
1.30pm I realize that I forgot the creme brulee. It's a little bit overcooked. But I'm selling it for creme brulee, so it's acceptable.
2.30pm I finished Semifreddo. I accidentally slipped egg yolk into meringe. Well, the semifreddo looked fine. So it's acceptable.
3.30pm I am writing this blog and only 2 items on my list are done. Lazy.
