1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

Setting up the kitchen and shutting down the kitchen. I am required to use different methods of cooking such as grilling and pan frying whilst also prepping fresh vegetables and salads.

2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

From starting at where I work currently I have learnt and adapted a lot of different skills over the years I have worked there. From coming in to the kitchen with only a couple of years experience to having nearly 7 years experience being a chef I have definitely learnt a lot of new skills.
