TAFE - The Mantle Restaurant 28 October 2009

Hello to all my readers and welcome in 2010!!!
I'm still in 2009 here with this course...just a couple of more posts remaining for the year and my course will be over!!!
The photos are taken on the run here in the College Training Kitchen/Restaurant...
the pics here are a bit blurry but thought I had better put them in as a record of my course...
Above is the whiteboard and the meals Chef has chosen for today...
I am on Dessert tonight and have been allocated the Lemon Cheesecake...

But first here's a little look at part of the TAFE pantry shelves...
thought I'd grab this opportunity as I had my phone on me!!!

Celery being prepared...

Lemons for the Cheesecake...

Toasted sliced breadstick...

And just for fun...plates to be used have to be chosen...washed, dried and stacked ready for service...

Roasted Butternut Pumpkin Soup...this was absolutely delicious...
I think due to the pumpkin being roasted beforehand!!!

A firm favourite...
Homemade Pork Boudin on Rocket Salad...

Chicken and Avocado Salad...

Tournedos of Chicken Chasseur...

Atlantic Salmon Cutlet on Mashed Potatoes...

Braised Lamb Shanks...

Lemon Cheesecake...

Meringue with Fresh Fruits...

Oh so blurry...Raspberry Bavarois...

Creme Caramel...


Blurry...Petit Fours...

Now it's back to Queen of the Armchair for me...Bon Appetit everybody, Dzintra
