    I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, we need a food safety badge. Temperatures, hand washing, cross contamination, not touching hair and face, reusing tasting spoons, proper cleansing of surfaces etc. I think the boys would melt down each time Ebbers makes a buzzer sound when the do something wrong 😂

      I'd love this to be a secret badge, though. Like, mention there's a secret badge up for grabs but they don't know what it is in the end. Maybe it could be something like not using more tools and bowls than you need, may be it's food safety. Maybe it's proper knife handling?

      Yes! I cringed when I saw them cut the still raw in the middle chicken on the cutting board. I would have stopped after that and immediately washed the knife and board before continuing to use it, or at least gotten a clean board and knife. Maybe they did and it was edited out?

      Maybe not for this challenge, but I think for another challenge, that would be absolutely top.
      One of the things Chefs always have to be smart about, is planning. How many ingredients can be repeated through the dishes, how easy is the preparation and how do I need to cook things down the line, that I dont have to have 5 pans on at the same time.. ..and that is just what I know off -laugh-
      So seeing them plan the stuff that I would not be able to wrap my head around enough, but that my Dad (he is a trained Chef) could do in his sleep.. it would be cool to see our chaotic trio tackle it^^

    • @davidphelps5857
      @davidphelps5857 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      That would be brilliant. So many things to get right.
      Can they get enough variety in the menu to please everyone without making it too complicated to prep and cook? Do they identify allergens in the dishes and know how to swap them out in need? Which ones are vegan and which ones can be made vegan/vegetarian on request?
      And with Ebbers judging we are guaranteed at least 1 table of fussy eaters will walk out because there is nothing on the menu to their liking.

    As someone who has worked in a deli for the last 5 years and offers a similar menu with grain bowls, soups, sandwiches and more, they did great! It was a bit unfair because if you are working in a cafe you know what to make , how to make it, how it should look and how to do it in a timely manner. The communication does definitely come in with the repetition and knowing what your doing and what's going on. I think they deserve either a badge or a second chance with the same menu.

    Good team work. And it sounds like a mixology badge is around the corner.
    On a different note, a consistency badge would be a good idea. In my time in the food service, consistency was a very important aspect of the business. Might I suggest pizzas be used as a test bed? Consistent stretch size, consistent number of pepperonis, consistent amount of cheese, etc. Every customer should get the same thing when they order and each time they order it on different days it should be the same, so a multi day badge to check for how consistent they can work.

      Great idea, or even a toasted sandwich bar setup as I noted the sandwiches were only toasted on one side and not heated through the thick slices of cheese. I've also, previously worked in a Cafe and one of my main roles was to prepare the sandwich bar, slice all the veggies and get everything out and ready to make a ton of toasted and non-toasted sandwiches. Consistency and cleanliness were extremely important.

      BTW, I'm guessing you're American based on the pepperoni, I don't think anywhere makes that iconic pepperoni pizzas in Australia, plus I'm pretty sure that's what we call salami but I would be happy to be corrected by a fellow Australian if I'm wrong? Our pizzas are nowhere near as large as American pizzas, the huge size is a comical highlight for Aussie tourists in America, instead, we usually add a lot more toppings, the margarita being the exception, our bases tend to be thicker but it depends where you buy them, the wood fired oven pizzas tend to be thin. Oh and a pizza isn't a pizza without pineapple 😋

      @@MaZEEZaM I am American and have never been to Australia. As for Pepperoni vs Salami, here there are differences. Salamis tend to be thicker cured sausages with a pink color and a different flavor profile compared to skinnier, redder pepperoni.
      And I do like pineapple on pizza as well. Particularly with pork products like ham or bacon. Sweet and salty works well.

    I think Jamie earned a badge. He gave criticism well (about garlic) with additional instructions, helped with questions (the mayo), communicated clearly about prep work (about "rare" chicken), and assisted when others fell behind (adding chicken to the soup). His only error in the video was ONE panini didn't have the amount of meat you wanted (a rare mistake from Jamie) but it has nothing to do with teamwork!

    I agree with Ben not awarding the badge. With solid communication and coordination, you can handle things like running out of things you’ve prepped with ease. Some tips for next time: don’t move things from their places, if you see something getting low then shout it out so more can be made, figure out what your pathway flow is going to be and always remember to say “Behind you” if you’re behind someone and need to get at their work area.

    Safety in the kitchen is essential. Taste is subjective and presentation is basic, it is a deli after all. I only agree with Ebbers over the safety issue. Question, did Baz leave an element on, on the stove causing the soup to thicken? I think the boys did a fairly decent job. 6/10
