The clue where am i working! Obvious enough? :p
The first thing i learn when i got there was how to read the menu,sigh. It would never be an easy task because there're around freaking 200 plus plus dishes to be memorized! I was cracking my head and dumbstrucking while the handsome assistant manager explaining each category of food, eg appetizer, sashimi and sushi,hot pot specialties, grill& deep fried specialties, doburi& menrui, bento-platters&party set and teppanyaki.
Confusing? There're more to come! Those japanese-isssh nouns like ebikko(this one maybe most of u will know), unagi(guess u all know..), hotate(hm...), negitoro(hmmm...), mentai(hmmmm....), hamachi(??), anago(???), tamago(apa tu?), ameabi, tai, ebi, ika, kani fumi.......
I gotta hafal all of them! Yes! i've to. The coming up were greeting customers, taking customers' orders, serving green tea(which called genmai/ocha) and food, cleaning up before, during, and after the servings. Awww, i find it fun! :) When the customers coming in, we must greet them with I RA SHI MA SEI (idk how to spell lol), which means WELCOME! the manager kept on urging me to
Then the side jobs while there're less customers are cleaning the running track of sushi, refilling the chopsticks, toothpicks, tissues, wasabe so on....& so forth. The works were not tiring, so far, but the part i hate the most is the design& structure of the seats, awww! making me difficult to do my assigned works! I had to walk/climb/claw in and out all the time only :(
The menu is with me right now, guess i will be sleeping and shitting with it for the entire week! i gotta key in all the nouns into my birdbrain before being tested by the manager! :P
