such as cold & hot station, fish & meat department, breakfast function. I was involved in
preparation and process of banquet events/cocktails/selected special menus, restaurant a
la cart and room service orders .My duties included product reception and storage, product
inventory, as well as pointing out shortages to the chef de partie to make orders. I also hold
