The lessons learned in Restaurant Trades range from safety procedures, to proper dining room set up, to making sure the oven is on the correct temperature for cooking or baking.
The students have learned the safety precautions of the shop: what can be hazardous, the different types of fires that can happen in the kitchen and what to do in order to put them out.
They have been taught how to bake all different kinds of items and even make their own icing to put on cakes and the sweets they bake.
Mary Mills, junior from New Castle, states, "What I like best about shop is we work all together to make the kitchen run smoothly, and that Miss. Price is always there when we need her help on figuring out things."
Mary goes on to say that, "I also like that after where done doing everything for what we made that day, we get to taste it. I really enjoy sharing our creations with others and seeing their reactions to how good it is."
Victoria Arnold, senior from New Castle, helped prepare for open house, and what a spread they put out for the parents! She acknowledges that "whenever they take that first bite and that look of pure satisfaction forms on their faces -- that is so encouraging." Compliments go far for this shop!
Ben Schwartz, senior from New Castle, helped serve for the OAC and LAC meetings. He understands what it means to be professional including putting in the time needed to make sure the job was done correctly. "When I speak with my friends," Ben adds, "I might describe a meal as 'Fire!' but when I am representing the school, I need to have a professional voice. I need to speak properly."
The students don't just work in-house. LCCTC Restaurant Trades students recently participated in the Senior Expo where they helped care for 650 senior citizens. Senator Vogel responded to their service with this: "Your willingness to help seniors with a smile made the day a success. We had several compliments from constituents about the students [at LCCTC]. Great job!"
LCCTC Restaurant Trades students: Well-done!
