 Quantity cookery has existed over a
thousand of years as long as there have been
large people to feed. Modern food service have
begun shortly after the middle of the 18th
century.
At this time, food production in France was
controlled by Guilds. Caterers, pastry makers,
roasters and butchers held licenses to prepare
specific items. An innkeeper had to buy the
various menu items from the guilds in order to
serve meals to their guests.

Monsieur BoulangerMonsieur Boulanger
In the year 1765, a Parisian man, began
advertising in his shop sign that he served
soups called “restaurants” or “restoratives”.
This word literally means “fortifying”.
He served “sheep’s feet in a cream sauce”.
The guild of stew makers challenged him in the
French court, but Boulanger won by claiming
that he didn’t stew the sheep’s feet in the sauce,
but served it with the sauce.

4. 
 The French Revolution had a particularly significant
effect on restaurant proliferation. Professional chefs
who previously have worked for the monarchy and
nobility either fled from France to escape the
guillotine or went into business for themselves.
 At the start of the French Revolution, there were
about 50 restaurants in Paris. Ten years later, there
were about 500.

TYPES OF KITCHEN

10. Commercial kitchens are organized into work stations and work sections. Organizing the kitchen in
this way streamlines the work flow and helps reduce the amount of time it takes to prepare and
serve food.
Work stations-Work stations- contains all the tools and equipment needed to prepare a certain dish or type of food.
For example, if a restaurant offers onion rings on the menu, they are prepared at the fry station.
The fry station contains a deep fryer, tongs, and fry baskets. It may also contain a holding station
with heat lamps to keep foods hot.
Each work station also contains storage and a power source.
The menu and the size of the establishment impact the size of each work station.
Work sectionsWork sections Related work stations are organized into work sections that may share equipment
or perform similar tasks. A hot foods section, for example, might contain a fry station and a
sauté station, along with other stations that prepare hot foods.
Grouping work stations into work sections allows a foodservice operation to assign staff to cover more
than one station if neither station requires the full-time services of one person or if the kitchen is
short-staffed.

HotelsHotels - must provide a variety of services for their guests, from budget-minded
tourists to business people on expense accounts, from quick breakfast and sandwich
counters to elegant dining rooms and banquet halls.
Hospitals - must satisfy the dietary needs of the patients.
Schools - must consider the ages of the students and their tastes and nutritional
needs.
Employee food services - need menus that offer substantial but quickly served
reasonably priced food for working customers.
Catering and banquet operations - depend on menus that are easily prepared for large
numbers but that are lavish enough for parties and special occasions.
Fast-food and take-out quick-service operations - require limited menus featuring
inexpensive, easily prepared, easily served foods for people in a hurry.
Full-service restaurants - range from simple neighborhood diners to expensive,
elegant restaurants. Menus, of course, must be planned according to the customers’
needs. Trying to institute a menu of high-priced, luxurious foods in a café situated in
a working-class neighborhood will probably not succeed.
