Second Week Spring Pathways

January 24, 2014 -
This week I started my internship at Copita Tequileria y Comida in Sausalito. It is a high end seasonal Mexican Restaurant and they serve lunch and dinner daily. They also have a tequila bar. The restaurant was created by Joanne Weir and Larry Mindel. Joanne is a celebrity chef with her own television show and numerous cookbooks. Larry is an experienced restauranteur and his restaurant background includes Poggio and Il Fornaio. The executive chef who I work with is Chef Gonzalo Rivera. I am working as a line cook under his guidance.

As a line cook, my duties are to plate dishes and make the desserts like churros and buñuelos. I also deep fry the oyster tacos and I make the papas bravas. I also do the prep work like making some of the sauces and it's going great for me.

In Spanish, I am learning about the alphabet, numbers 1-30 and about words being masculine singular, masculine plural, feminine singular and feminine plural.
