Whats the craziest call off excuse you have ever received as a kitchen manager/chef?

That's pretty funny. People get pretty creative sometimes, don't they? :)

Hey Lauren,

I really need to update my profile! I was in Sydney for about 6 months launching the Foodservice Rewards program in Australia and New Zealand, but have since returned to Minneapolis. I'm hoping to make a few return visits when our Australian counterparts need a little help. I spent some time in Sydney and Melbourne and both are great cities. If you haven't been and get a chance to go, I would highly recommend it!

Very busy making everything from scratch but the french fries , thank you for asking . We are a home style family food some of our recipes are my great grandmothers and grandmothers but we are not afraid to try new things. We serve breakfast all day that is 6 am to 3 pm seven days a week. Voted best breakfast and desserts for Lewistown Pa every year, by the local paper. Gormet Magazine asked for our french toast recipe its the best. Snowed in today and catching up on paper work.

Before making that trip to doctor, you may want to take a look at these steps first.

When to Eat
For years experts have argued about healthy eating schedules and practices. Do you eat three full meals a… Continue

Keeping Your Employees Happy

Get Your Employees Pumped Up
...or at least give them caffeine. A lot of us get perturbed that we have to stop at Starbucks and pay obscene amounts of money for a cup of coffee. Not only does it force us to get off of the freeway and wait in line, but if you calculate the costs over a year it can come out to approximately $618 minimum per year. Buy a coffee machine that accommodates the size of your company. Got about 40-60 employees? There are plenty of… Continue
