Almost eight in the morning I finally reached the restaurant. Immediately I put the bag I was under into the room that was reserved for employees.
I rushed out and immediately joined my friend's kitchen team which was mostly mom's.
"That you didn't think it was coming, Ar?"
" No ma'am. Coincidentally, the road was not so jammed. So yeah a little faster."
Resto not open yet. During the Lebaran restaurant accidentally opened at nine in the morning. But not with hotels. The guests who stayed there still got their morning breakfast. Seen from the number of threatened coupons on nails that are used as a place to collect breakfast coupons.
"A lot of guests in the room?"
"Lumayan, he said last night there was a group who came to stay overnight. So a little bit of people order breakfast." Bu Tima was still busy with the lumpia leather dough he printed on teflon. Though as I recall, yesterday I've made a little bit as much as stock. Was it probably a lot last night?
"Sorry mom, Ar's coming too late." My great-grandson doesn't feel good.
"It's just breakfast, it's not hard."
"Not yesterday I have made lumpia skin quite a lot huh mom? how do you do it again?" Ask me slowly
" Yes that, last night's entourage on a fried lumpia and wet message. It becomes all the skin that you make ludes. There are five leftovers, but all of them are made and fried to be eaten together." Bu Tima smiled at the end of his sentence.
It is no secret to our employees. Even Mr. Halim himself never minded what we ate. As long as it does not interfere with orders and the stock is still good then we can taste it as long as not often.
One by one the employees came. That means, the operating hours of the resto will begin soon. We are ready in each position if there is an impromptu order coming.
Not bad guests during holidays and weekends can be predicted. Therefore, our kitchen is prepared far away from day. Stock of foodstuffs that accumulate in the warehouse as a sign of the readiness we do.
"What parts of the kitchen should there be overtime?" Mbak Ani as the supervisor of the restaurant came when our work was a little relaxed. Just waiting for two menus that are not yet mature and we are preparing.
Grilled gurami and sweet asem gurami are menus that are being processed in the kitchen at this time. Both menus take a little more time to cook.
"If we could change overtime, ma'am." Bu Sri's Proposal
He who became the head of the kitchen as well as the head chef certainly had a big contribution to his men. On the one hand he thought about the energy needed so as not to suck too much. But on the other hand he also has to think about the health of us all.
"Then who starts overtime today?"
"What is Tima doing overtime? you two talk. Well Ar, later you negotiate with Buna.So it's good when the overtime turn is on tau. If I wasn't careless, we could be overtime every day." Sri's laughter echoed followed by a plot from Bu Kayah.
His name is Rhukayah, but we prefer to abbreviate him as Bu Kayah. Less efficient and more unique.
"I'm not a robot either, ma'am." Bu Kayah said as she pursed her lips.
"Yes, you can take a vacation later. But yes later if it's been a week. You can also go home if the guest is not so much."
Bu Kayah is the deputy head of the kitchen and also the second chef at this restaurant. He is responsible for the local cuisine or native cuisine of the archipelago. While Bu Sri, he is more master of Chinese cuisine.
While cook halper sepiku, only in charge of helping to ease their work.
