(10 marks) Part C: Value 2% Learning to Present Learning how to present food effectively you must start by asking and answering the right question. I believe this is a great team builder and a great way to develop leadership. Ideas and constructive criticisms are shared with the direction of the dining room being achieved. The right questions to ask and answer: What are we trying to achieve? How can we accomplish this presentation in the time allotted? How can we showcase this food in an eye-pleasing manner? How can we avoid presentations that “go overboard” and are difficult for the servers to serve and are difficult for the customers to eat? It is invaluable to go through a conceptual design stage to practice plate presentation. You are to put your ideas on paper for one plate presentation of your choice that would be able to serve in Bloom using the products from the provided menu. You don’t have to be an artist. You can draw your ideas or use a computer drawing program. Follow the handout example provided. (20 marks) A great way to approach plate presentation is to create a six item checklist to use and follow the brief guidelines provided. On a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest, please rank the following Comments Would you buy this plate? Yes No Shape: Avoid contrived food shapes. This can be accomplished by using a combination of sliced, molded and loose and whole food items. Colour: Use a combination of earth tones and naturally vibrant colours. Height: Incorporate the natural shape of food to provide varied, but not extreme, heights. This will enhance the flow of food on the plate. Items: Choose food items based on practicality, portion size, number of other items on the plate, along with degree of preparation difficulty. Flavour: This is the single most important factor. Use only quality, compatible flavours to enhance your plate presentation Texture: To achieve a variety of textures, vary your cooking methods and apply different cuts to your vegetables to create variation A Purchase Order(PO) is a form issued by the buyer (restaurant) and sent to the vendor that indicates the items and quantities to be purchased.

A Product Specification (Spec) explains or describes product name, it’s intended use, grade, size and other product characteristics. It also includes general instructions regarding delivery, payment procedures and other pertinent data. It tells the supplier exactly what the buyer wants. A specification should be documented so that both the buyer and the supplier are clear on the buyer’s purchase requirements.
