last 15/3/2010.. it was our assessment day.. i tried to do things outside d box by making chicken mousseline in beet root ravioli with cream of spinach and oven dried tomatoes.. taste was good.. but apparently i cant serve my main course in a bowl? i agree on my portioning.. dats my bet coz i dont have a bigger mould to make my ravioli.. so.. it appears a lil' smaller.. the cream of spinach was not wat i expected it to be.. i thought they r gonna provide me with baby spinach.. but ended up with some asian spinach which were so fibrous.. but i pulled it off newayz.. the tomatoes were a flop in d sense of color.. we were given unripe tomatoes instead of d ripe red ones.. but nevertheless.. the taste overall was good..
the not so good part, i got cut down marks literally to zero with my food presentation, portion and sum other stuff.. i forgot.. so there goes my f-ing 9 marks! this is wat happens when i tried to go outside d box.. i really dont get it.. y cant i serve with the bowl??!! its different! chef said he wants us to serve on a platter/dinner plate.. bcoz we r serving main course.. but... its so boring... i wanna do sumfink different.. hm~ juz not my day dat day~ its ok.. i've analyzed my mistakes and i'm amending them.. :)
the beet root ravioli was not wat i expected it either.. i shud puree d beet root and add more to my pasta dough to intensify d color.. my chicken mousseline was ok.. so.. hm~
overall... i'm not dat satisfied with my marks.. i dont knw d overall points.. but if i were to do it again.. i wud do d most perfect chicken dish! its ok.. better fail now and learn from it than fail later on and regret on it~ =D
