How can i get jobs in restaurants?
I am 15 and going to be 16. I have experience in cooking, but not professional. I want to learn more about cooking. Because of my ethnicity, my cooking is limited to asian. Is there anyway i can work at different restaurants for little pay or for free (part time)? I go to school of course.
Answers:
With any industry, you'll be proud to say one day that you started at the bottom. I spent my 15th year as a dishwasher in a "fine dining" establishment. Hot plates, heavy garbage cans, hot-tempered chefs - the experience gave me priceless insight on the inner-workings of the kitchen, without being part of the serving line. After a quick year of sweating it out over the dishwasher, I was promoted to busboy and then fry cook. Without the experience of being a dishwasher, if I was hired first as fry cook, I would have quit after the first night.
Best of luck.
