In the back kitchen... Greg, Crystal and Misbah were
getting ready for lunch service by going through
their fridges. In the evening we were quite busy! It
was mostly steaks... and I was too busy to take any
pics after I took this one. Basically it's two Waguy
Rump fillets, medium-rare. |

The first major mise-en-place that I had to do was
to clean, trim and portion the Ocean Trout fillets.
Not only do I have to cut off the excess fat and
loose flesh... ...I also have to carefully pull the
fish bones out with a pair of tweezers. On the inset
you can see the tip of a bone as I pull it out. The
bones can sometimes be up to an inch long. Eeks!
It's odd... but somebody ordered ice-cream before
the entree or main course. Hehehe! ...then it got
really busy. And I was getting orders for burgers by
the dozen... the guests seem to crave Roman's
burgers! |

I call it Roman's burgers because he's been
designated with the production of the burger
patties. He takes it so seriously that he doesn't
even want to show me how he moulds the beef mix into
the perfect round shape that they are... hehehe! And
when he grills a sample he attentively guards it...
as though I'd steal it or something. Hehehe! But
anyway, I think his burgers are among the best that
I've ever come across. Yummy!!! |
