DAY 9

Today was another full day of Computrition training. Everyone is catching on quickly and hopefully they're retaining the information so that it is easy to implement in the fall. If you're curious about Computrition, these are the main topics that we have covered:

Forecasting
Production Reports
Menu Scaled Recipes
Pull Sheets
Copying Menus
Creating Inventory Worksheets
Post Meal Counts
Menu Reports- Cost of Over Production
Deleting Menus
Creating Orders
Creating Standing Order Templates
Processing Orders

Sounds pretty boring unless you know food service.

For dinner, Gordon took me & Rachael, Paul & his wife Erika, and Beth out to dinner at a sushi restaurant called Looie's Down Under. It is an upscale restaurant in the basement of a building on Main St. There were few items under $30 on the menu! I usually try to order something inexpensive if someone else is paying, but I really had no choice. I had a salad, edamame, a few different kinds of sushi (including eel), and as my main course I had a filet served over a bed of fresh picked morrel mushrooms, and asparagus with a savory juice. It was even garnished with a purple flower! The presentation of the food was beautiful. I was too shy to order wine or dessert, but his bill was still $250!!! To me, that is outrageous, but I have to admit that it was a lot of fun! Next time, I'm getting some wine.
