    • @essendossev362
      @essendossev362 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Most of all I'm impressed by how well she trains her staff, in a constructive manner as you said, giving them a strong set of skills for the long term so that they're in the best possible position to do their job and so she doesn't end up overly stressed trying to manage everything. Ex, they have a term for if the cooks forget or loose track of what dishes they need to be preparing, but she also clearly has passed onto them the skills for how to manage their orders (pulling out the plate for the order when they get it) so that it doesn't need to be called a lot. It's there if they need it to fall back on, but she makes sure they won't need to most of the time.
