Breakfast for 100 takes a lot more than knowing how to cook!
Behind every Tiger Café catering job, our students are learning how to figure quantities, check inventory, order supplies, follow production charts, and manage their time. They’re learning what needs to cook first, how to have everything ready together, and how to hold food safely until it’s time to serve.
Every step takes teamwork, communication, and everyone doing their part.
This morning, I had students showing up at 7:00 on a Saturday to help cook—and they were prepared to stay and serve, too! We ended up not needing to serve today, but their willingness to see the whole job through makes me proud.
I didn’t get many pictures because it was all hands on deck! Rick and I were both right there cooking and helping the students.
The finished plates are only part of the story. These kids are learning how to plan, take responsibility, solve problems, and follow a job through from beginning to end. Those are skills they can take into any workplace.
