Alright, work at the Balcony is crazy but fun so I have not been able to work in the kitchen as much. As part of my internship I have been serving in the front of the house but at a recent wedding reception I was asked help with plate up for the reception. There were three different plates a beef, chicken, and a trout dish. Each of those dishes had some sauteed vegetables of carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower. The beef dish was a barbecue brisket. The chicken was a chicken mornay which is a grilled chicken breast with Alfredo sauce and sauteed mushrooms and onions. I helped plate the chicken and beef dishes so I did not get to see what was on the trout dish. For the kids there was a simple plate of chicken tenders with fries. After everything was plated up, I got ready to work the reception. There were little kids running around everywhere and I was greatly surprised that nothing was broken or spilled during the night.

Today, during my shift I went to the kitchen and made a burger for lunch. I saw a recipe one time called a Miami Burger. The burger is basically a Cuban sandwich but on a burger. It had a garlic mayonnaise, turkey, ham, swiss, and pickles along with a beef patty. It was all served on a kaiser roll.

Miami Burger

1 - 1/3 Pound Beef Patty

2 - Slices of Swiss Cheese

2 oz. - Smoked Ham

2 oz. - Smoked Turkey

1 - Kaiser Roll

2 tbsp - Mayonnaise

1 tbsp - Minced Garlic

Cook the patty to the desired temperature on the grill. Once the patty is cooked to temperature add the cheese to the patty to melt. While that is melting, take the turkey and ham and warm on the flat top or frying pan. While the cheese is melting take the kaiser roll and toast in the oven, or flat top. Once everything is cooked take the mayonnaise and the garlic and mix together. Assemble the burger anyway that you would like and enjoy the burger.
