December has come (already?!) and we pulled through our fifth restaurant service with snow flakes falling outside, seeming so calm and then next thing you know you've got to send 11 dishes at the same time then 12 right after and you're missing the dishes themselves or your sauce hasn't reduced enough!
As calm settles in, here are the pics!
