Just before I walked into the kitchen I made myself a nice strong latte. It's not as fabulous as the Three Layered Coffee Treat that Tanya makes, but it's good enough to keep me on my toes... at least until she shows up and makes me a proper cup of espresso coffee. =) So we have a new menu... and as I was writing down notes and checking my stock these two massive dockets popped out of the printer!!! WHAT THE F@#K!!! Tanya even sneaked up and said to me "...these tables are VIP... and they want them quickly!" Geez... I almost fainted! ...but then she laughed and said they were just testing the new menu entries on the computer. Whew! Hehehe!

 I was rather busy, but when I got the chance I asked Tanya what she wanted for her lunch. She said she wanted some really crispy bacon... so I tossed a few rashes unto the fiery grill... and I let them burst into flames until they're nice and crunchy! ...she was basically asking for a BLT sandwich. For those of you who been living in Mars... BLT means Bacon Lettuce Tomato... hehehe! Oh... and I gave her some chips (french fries) as well.

She did not straight away pick it up and I was concerned that the bacon and fries were starting to become soft and uncrunchy so I went out looking for her. I found Tanya behind her desk and she was chatting with Thomas... ...I really couldn't hear what they were talking about because they're on the other side of a glass panel, but I later realized that they were actually talking about me! Eh?

I had a function in the evening. It's only for 24 people and from my section I had to produce octopus salads... but over half an hour later the salads were still sitting there! What the heck's going on?!
