I took my
work laptop home because I needed to
transfer a lot of files. Usually I just load
the files into my
tempura prawn usb-drive then plug it
into my other laptop, but I couldn't find
the darn thing! I spent an hour or so
looking inside my bags and there's no sign
of it. Geez... I think I must have served it
during lunch with the Seafood Basket. Hehehe!
I could've
e-mailed the files to myself but I didn't
have internet access at work. When I got
home I realized that I left my usb cable at
work! Oh crap! Thank goodness both laptop
has a built in infrared module so that's how
I transferred the files. It took about 3
hours for the files to go through. Reminds
me of what it was like 12 years ago when you
save a 10kb file into a floppy disc. Geez!!!
This
morning I straight away noticed that the
plain and garlic butter tubs were left
uncovered. Luckily they were not rancid.
Whew! Stuffs like that makes me worry
because food items shouldn't be left
overnight without a proper cover.
Remember
on
Saturday I went shopping... and among
the stuffs that I picked up from the
Hospitality Showroom were the little
stainless steel jugs. Of course they came
straight from the factory so I had to soak
them overnight. I soaked them in soap water
with a cup of white vinegar. The stickers
peel off easily the next day and the soap
water and vinegar also eats up all the
impurities on the surface so they come out
really shiny. They're so shiny that
everybody thought they were made of silver.
Hehehe!
Also today
the bain-marie was acting up. It's one of
the most important equipments in the kitchen
because it keeps the sauces hot. The next
best thing is to set up a makeshift
bain-marie on the flat grill and that's what
I did. It works... it keeps the sauces above
70°c, but the thing is that it occupies 1/3
of the flat grill's surface. It's just a
band-aid solution, but I can pretty much
work around it. A lot better than having
cold sauces! :) |
