The kitchen staff begin their work at 7 o'clock. We, student cooks had to come to the restaurant at 10 o'clock. Each of us was told to go to one of the shops. There we got a programme for the working day. Usually we prepared sandwiches, fruit salads and canapés for breakfast. We cut bread, ham, sausage and vegetables to put on canapés. We also decorated them with herbs and little figures made of carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc. Breakfast was served from 8 till 12. At II o'clock we began to help the cooks by preparing dishes for lunch. Student cooks were usually trusted to cut vegetables and make sauces for desserts: strudels, ice cream, tarts and puddings.
All day we had to carry out cooks' instructions. The kitchen staff are very experienced there. The chef is a very skilled cook too. He has worked many years as a cook in this and other restaurants. The main part of his job is to plan the menu for the day and manage the staff in the kitchen.
At the end of the practice time we had to take an examination. We had to prepare three courses: soup, a main course and dessert. 1 made Moscow borsch as soup, beef with sour cream and mushrooms as a main course and chocolate soufflé as dessert. Most of all I like to cook desserts. I made these in the shape of stars. Then I put three stars of different sizes and colors on the plate and added some kiwi sauce near them on the plate. It was very nice and tasty.
