Working at the Deer Creek Banquet & Golf Club has been an incredible learning experience as it is one of the largest golf & banquet facilities in Canada. That comes with adapting to larger size events upwards of 700 guests per event. Everything from large plated events to large buffet-style events. This helped me improve my timing skills, as well as my portioning abilities to reduce waste in the kitchen and deliver fresher meals to our guests. I also had the freedom to help develop new sauces and recipes for the various clientele we cater towards.Task & Responsibilities:• Opening / Closing the main kitchen. • Recipe Modification. • Sanitary Practices.• Food Preparation. • Food Inventory. • Butchery Skills (Chicken, Beef, Fish, Game). • Sauce Development. • Running the line. • Assisting in Gerry’s Kitchen Operations.
