Day 3


1. Help the casher in any way that i can

2. Learn how to key in the order

3. Learn how to close the bill

4. Learn how to settle the bill


Anyway, that was what i have learn so far...


Anyway, everybody knows where i live right??

Well, everyday i have to travel to the LRT station and then switch to the monorail...

So, the problem is getting to the LRT station every morning...

Since i stay so far therefore all my training shif is split shif...


Because I always arrive earlier then i have to due to the traspostation problem, therefore i have to find a spot where i can sit and relax...

Can u guess where i went???

------------> Radias Hotel<-------------

i have been there everyday since i started training le...

I even fall asleep at the lobby this morning...

So, i wouldn't be a surprise that the security guard knows me...

Ehhem... anyway, the main point is that me, Lin and Diny always hangs out there...


Oh ya, i still haven't fill in the details of my restaurant ya...

So, El Cerdo is a Spanish word means The Pig.

This restaurant is still using the manual management where only the Chef De Rong can take order and that the server have to let them check the bill before they hand it to the guest.

The restaurant also uses the captain order which is very unusual for the restaurant nowadays to practice.

The server have to fire the following course every time the guest finish their meal.

The supervisor, Chef De Rong and bartender are at the same 'tahap'.


So far the people have been nice to me... But the fun part is that i get to meet new ppl and they are gossip around to talk about..Even thought it's not as big as the hotel but still there are lots of interesting stuff happening~~~


Since th boss have a now shop opposite the restaurant which is call Werner's at Changkat, some of the staff have been move to the other side...

Andres the former manager of El Cerdo is in charge of the Werner's which is more bar.

Every night the restaurant will be pack with guest....most of them are regular...

The no. of pax increases as the days go by..So, that means i have to prepare myself for Sunday...

and FYI a minimum of RM60 is the average amount that one have to pay to dined in that restaurant...And that doesn't includes that famous dish and dessert and of course wine.


So, that for today....

I'll get back ASAP!!!
