Good info. I've been a server for decades but I started at a new restaurant & I expo tonight. Work life is so much easier with a competent food runner.
At Applebee’s an expo is usually a manager (least post covid due to short staffing). It’s a chain dine in restaurant so it’s a little different than the restaurant in this video but our servers are the ones that cut celery, cilantro, parsley, strawberries, etc which we have on our expo line. But it depends on the store bc some other Applebee’s leave those to the kitchen staff to do
Where is work at it would be nice to have table number on tables on the side are something...ND they about to cross train me in 2 days ... I'm sure I got this
1. Put a wet towel under your cutting board before you hurt yourself. 2. Who taught you to flip the cutting board? That is, hands down, the laziest, most unsanitary shortcut I've ever seen. 3. Use a proper tool to remove the pits from olives. 4. While handling the olives, why would you use gloves for the entire process, then remove them before the very last step? 5. Stop flipping the cutting board. 6. Why do you need a training video for an expo position?

I really love this video and the way everything was explained properly... I wish you made more videos like this...
our kitchen is always so confusing because we have 3 waiters and no runner
No freakin way that sound horrible lol
Great video . Personally I like seat numbers on the ticket it saves time when you’re very busy
Seems like a lot of this could be done in kitchen prep, why would an expediter/runner have to prep garnish? Is that common ?
Depends on the kitchen, and if the restaurant is staffed enough.

No this is not common
i don’t know what to do still
Starting my job soon, i hope i nail it
Do you got any tips for food runners
this is part of my job i got today it is VERY new to me and i start Saturday D: aaaaah ! im excited and nervous af
I fail to understand how these olives and peppers look good as garnish, who wants obviously jagged and torn things on their plate? I don't get it.
do you guys not have seat numbers on your tickets so you know what plate is for who ?
