Your job

Today, Wednesday, is practice day for you. A quick chat with colleagues and then you are ready to pop into the kitchen of this catering location at an airport. First some preparatory work and checking the kitchen stock. Your mentor, an experienced (chef) cook, then asks if you would like to observe a number of dishes. This way, you learn more about certain techniques and the layout of a plate. Great, you've been given some good tips and tricks and get to work on preparing the best dishes yourself.

At the end of the practical day, you discuss the rest of the week with your mentor. The rest of the week you go back to school for your other subjects, next week you'll be back. You have gained a lot of practical experience today!
