CULINARY: My eighth night at Pigalls

I’d been unable to work there during the summer because of busy schedules so it was a tremendous amount of fun to get back into the kitchen with the crew (some of whom were new since the last time I’d worked) and to put out some wonderful food.
I arrived around 1:00pm and got started with prepping for service.

The restaurant has gotten a lot busier since my last time in the kitchen. The first turn was very busy — much more so than the last time I was in. I believe this is because Jean-Robert at Pigall’s recently received a 4-star designation.
I stayed through the first turn and left around 8:00pm.
