Chef de Partie (Line Cook) Stations are a signature of the brigade system. The full brigade has stations for every type of food preparation method needed in the kitchen. The system has several types of chefs de cuisine, also known as line cooks, that oversee each station in the brigade system. Their specific duties, and titles, depend on their stations. 6. Commis Chef (Junior Chef) In the traditional brigade system, line cooks have junior chefs working with them. Junior chefs help execute orders at the stations to which they’re assigned.

Plongeur (Dishwasher) The dishwasher, or plongeur, is a critical kitchen job in the brigade system. This position cleans dishes and prepares them for another round of service by drying and organizing them. NOTES - WEEK 1 Page 2 of 2.

Konkol Submitted in Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Education June 14, 2013 iii ABSTRACT Traditionally cooking is considered to be women’s work, yet the vast majority of professional chefs, particularly in the upper echelons of restaurant work, are men. These curious gendered patterns stimulated interest in delving more deeply into the gendered nature of restaurant work. Existing research on this topic has concentrated on the front of the house (dining room) but has not addressed the gendered nature of the male-dominated back of the house (kitchen).

  • Chef Talk: Jaryd Hearn of Polo Grill &
    Chef Talk: Jaryd Hearn of Polo Grill & Bar By Abby Weingarten, Correspondent Posted Aug 2, 2017 at 10:02 AM Updated Aug 2, 2017 at 10:02 AM Interview plus recipe Jaryd Hearn returned to the Polo Grill & Bar in March to become the executive chef after working for two years at Alinea, a world- renowned, three-star Michelin restaurant in Chicago. Since coming back to Lakewood Ranch, Hearn has collaborated with chef/proprietor Tommy Klauber to bring a rustic, modern, locally-focused, seasonal approach to the menu. Q: What have been some of the highlights of your career? A: I began my restaurant career in 2008 at the age of 15. My first job was at the Grove House Grill as a busser and food runner before moving to a line cook position. During my time there, I met a chef who offered me an opportunity to work in New York. At 18, I moved to Bolton Landing. I spent a season at Lakeside Restaurant, working as a junior sous chef. This experience showed me how to handle a high- volume, fine-dining restaurant while working over 90 hours a week. After my time in New York, I returned to Bradenton to attend Keiser University for a degree in culinary arts while working at Polo Grill. In 2015, I joined the Alinea team as a chef de partie before becoming a sous chef. While with Alinea, I traveled to Dallas, Madrid, Miami and New York before relaunching Alinea -- and maintaining its three-star Michelin rating and No. 6 world ranking.
