Sunday Brunch at Flour

On Sunday I had a totally different experience at Flour than I have had before.  I came in at 10 am and worked brunch!  It was very cool to see a different kind of food come out of the kitchen. I usually work on the “line” - which is where the food actually comes out of the kitchen to serve to customers, but on Sunday I worked mostly in the back kitchen to prepare for that evening’s dinner service.  A few of my friends came to visit me and had brunch, so it was fun to see them and to show them what I was doing.  I cut a lot of vegetables, made crostini and helped prepare the line for dinner service.  I got my first kitchen wounds on Sunday and may actually need stiches on my thumb… Oops. I learned how to use the meat cutter, and actually used it to slice bread very thinly to make crostini. I left the kitchen at 3pm, so it was nice to still have some of my day left because I usually leave around 11pm and don’t have time to do anything else with my friends or family.  Hopefully I will be able to go in to the kitchen during the day more this week because I enjoyed the prep work, plus I don’t have to clean the kitchen at the end of the shift because the dinner crew does that!
