Excellent!

ok, today in class (we are in week 10 – I can’t believe how much I’ve learned in this time!), instead of the usual “good job” or “great job” which is typical from Chef after the critique, I received this comment “excellent job, you should be proud of yourself!”   for the plate below – wow, that’s a big compliment!   the only critique was that my Maltaise sauce could use a pinch more salt.  I was told that my chicken was seasoned and cooked perfectly and very juicy (I’ve learned to take it’s temp), that my poached egg was “perfect” and my Bernaise delicious.   I’m taking this as a big win!

today’s school plate:

last night’s dinner – lemon risotto with garlic, rosemary shrimp and charred Brussel Sprouts with bacon – YUM!
