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

i started of with little experience of working in a kitchen and within 2 weeks i knew it all but thats because the skills needed for that kitchen was limited you didnt have to do much nor did you have to try [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions]
