STEP UP TO THE PLATE

Have you checked

the Romanesco broccoli?

No, only the green, the yellow

and the two-colored ones.

Check out the Romanescos then!

You do them,

I have the herbs to check.

But I like to check

the herbs myself...

I'll check them for you.

Now I understand

why Wednesdays are a mess.

Wednesdays are fine.

You see,

I do everything on Saturdays.

That's done.

Did I get coriander?

He gets the easy job.

I have to sort out the rest.

I ordered 8 of them.

There are 5.

- Right, we need more.

- Let me check the beans.

Don't hurt yourself!

- Can't we make translucent jelly?

- It's the oil!

Right. Sure.

- I mean "clear. "

- Impossible.

Even if you emulsify the oil...

Whatever we do,

we use the seeds.

- For the flavor...

- I don't understand you.

We could make the jelly with seeds.

With seed oil?

Seed oil or not.

Oil can be emulsified.

You rest it for the flavor.

But it won't be translucent.

It will be,

if you lose the oil...

The syrup will be flavored.

We need to try.

I'm sure it'll work.

It's so strong.

On the subject of seeds,

your kids should pick some plums.

Our tree is full of them.

This weekend then.

Today or tomorrow.

Today, we have a wedding.

What time are you going?

Look at the sunrise.

Not yet.

It won't be for another hour.

Sorry?

Another hour before the sunrise.

You must vacuum thoroughly.

In the afternoon light,

it looks clean,

but when the evening falls,

we see crumbs everywhere.

Cleaning is your responsibility,

it needs to be spotless.

Make sure you remember faces,

whether they're regulars or not.

It matters.

- Do we have notepads?

- You didn't get them?

I hope you all have a pen.

And a crumb tray,

ours or your personal one.

You do need a pen

to take notes

about the dishes.

And remember to smile.

As of today.

Until October 31st.

Everyone OK?

As far as the menu is concerned...

questions are welcome.

They're all useful.

Really. Ask them now

or it will be too late.

Be careful!

I can get nasty about that.

The seniors know that.

You warned the team?

It's good to remind them.

With the endive dish,

there will be mashed split peas

and coconut milk.

And some poppy seed oil.

Please taste it again.

So you know the taste of it.

Go on.

The aroma is slightly grilled.

Can I interrupt...

I don't have the herbs list.

Sba is telling you all this

so you can answer

the customers' questions.

Don't give customers

long explanations,

by the time you finish talking,

the dish is cold.

Next thing... I heard Max.

Two things actually.

Don't introduce a dish

with superfluous explanations,

it's all there on the menu.

The poetry, we do it,

Sbastien and I.

Stick to the first two lines,

usually, they sum it all up.

Don't overdo it.

No need to chitchat.

They stop listening,

it's a nuisance.

Leave it there to avoid confusion.

Good, you remembered.

What comes after? The Gargouillou.

A last minute preparation.

No need to announce it.

From the start,

you need to get the hang

of this system,

and read the board.

Tricky in the beginning,

but throughout the platings,

you'll gain confidence.

Good evening.

For the plating,

if you're hesitating,

please ask.

This is teamwork,

there isn't a wall

in the middle or anywhere.

This kitchen is open,

we've always worked like this.

Teamwork.

Please always communicate.

Don't isolate yourselves,

stay connected with the others.

Alright?

Do you have the herbs...

for the sorrel emulsion?

Sorrel emulsion, please.

On top like this?

- Will it move?

- I think so.

I would put this, a little powder.

They mix it when they eat it.

Why make it complicated?

I feel there's something missing.

You have bitterness, sweetness.

I don't know.

Ginger brings a strong taste.

I find it well-balanced.

What do you want to add?

Another vegetable?

No, I don't know.

I don't understand

why you want to add something.

It's fine like this.

This is OK.

We'll put the final touch tonight

when plating up.

That's sorted.

Please turn off

the two warming drawers.

Summer

Here we go!

Through the rough?

At full speed!

Full speed!

Wicked!

Gorgeous.

It's slippery.

Take Grandpa's hand.

Can we go up there, Dad?

Dad?

- Off you go!

- Can I?

Catch it, Vro.

Show us you're no longer a Parisian.

Hold it properly. The abdomen!
