Trip and pizza

Hello everyone. I had an amazing week. It started with a field trip with my classmates from tourism lectures. We visited the museum of glass. It was very interesting to watch how people were working with the glass.

The next attraction was the Ovech Fortress. We were climbing around twenty minutes. Then we reached the fortress and the amazing view from the hill. Between two hills it is placed the small city Provadia. The guide told us interesting facts about the city and the fortress.

It was tiring walk, therefore we took a break. I had homemade sandwiches and that brought me back to my school memories.
However, after the break, we went to the history museum of Provadia. There we saw many artefacts and old traditional clothes.

The next stop and the last stop of our trip was the Stone forest. It was amazing and beautiful.

On Saturday we had a pizza event. I was working service.

 We received a lot compliments about the food and the atmosphere.
Thank you for reading my blog and see you next week.

Hello everyone. My week started well. On Monday I spend my day at the university. Together with my colleagues, we started with the organization of our event with the theme "Jurassic Night". We prepared one poster and discussed parts form the menu. On Monday evening I went to one restaurant called "Tapa". For the first time in a restaurant, I tried very good risotto. Most of the times I got an overcooked rise. Also, I love their fresh made potatoes chips. I didn't miss the chance to have a glass of nice rose.

The rest of the week I finished all the work that I wanted to. I am happy to say that I have my weekend free. Except for Saturday evening, I was helping to the other group with their event with the theme "Old Balkan Night". The atmosphere was impressive my colleagues gave their best. When I entered the restaurant I felt like a kid in my village.

The food was amazing. The old dishes were represented in a modern way with very good result. People loved the meal they had.

Cocktails

Hello, everyone. In the begging of the week, I was in a mood for baking. I made sweet and salty muffins. I am happy to say that they were delicious and healthy at the same time. Lately, I prefer to bake my sweets alone because I can control the quantities of fats and sugar.

On Friday I and my colleagues made the test of the menu for the Saturday event. One of my colleagues was making a test for eatable helium balloons. We had a great time with a lot of fun, while we were testing the balloons.

On Saturday was the evening with the Tapas and Cocktails event. We started the mise-en-place early in the morning. The begging of the day included a meeting and a breakfast.

 We organized our work well, therefore the afternoon we were ready with the preparations. On service time I took care for the cocktails. Unfortunately, I have a photo only from one of the glasses for the beer cocktail called Michelada.

 The second cocktail was Caipirinha. The last was Daiquiri, which was in the form of specification, served with the dessert.

 The service went well.

Black Sea

Hello everyone. I had a very exciting week. Monday my cousin surprised me. She visited me in Varna and we spent her birthday together. We went for a walk in Balchik. There we saw the botanical gardens. Despite the bad weather, we enjoyed the view and the time together. While we were walking around we visited a wine house. Inside was an old vines collection. I saw wines from     1945, 1909, 1903, from different regions and grapes sorts.

 Friday we were given interesting tasks from one of the chefs in the university. We were divided into groups and we had to make a research for different recipes. I was in the pastry group. We made a research for some Indian desserts. It was interesting for me to read more about Indian food and culture.

Saturday I was working in the service section. The theme of the event was Black sea treasures.

Everything on the event went smoothly without problems. The decoration in the restaurant was beautiful and the atmosphere was exactly like on the sea.

Sunday I went for a walk to one of the many beaches around Varna. I took some conchs for decoration at my home.

Hello, everyone. This week was normal. In the begging of the week, we had human resources and tourism lectures. Something new in the university routine was the marketing and the English lectures. We are still in the marketing introduction, despite this fact I think is very interesting.I am happy that we study English because I have a lot more to learn.

At the end of the week, we were testing the menu for this event on Saturday. I was working in pastry section.  It was strange for me to work again with my fellow students. It was nicer than before. We organised ourselves better. This helped us to finish faster and to work cleaner.

Together with my colleague Kristina, we were preparing the dessert. Part of the dessert was a chocolate mousse. The recipe worked well and we got an amazing result. The mousse was light and not too sweet.

Wiped cream for the mousse

 Another part of the last course were the orange pearls. They had a smooth texture and created a fresh feeling in the month.

The pearls are at the bottom 

 Unfortunately, I missed the event. Despite this, I think the menu was interesting and delicious.

Hello, everyone. One more week more has already passed. This week was the first of many events in the university. Two of my fellow students were in charge of the organisation.

On the first days of the week, we started classes with making the menu and the calculations. It was not so simple and fast, how I thought. Also, we created a video for better advertisement of the event. It was nice again to put the uniforms and to go in the kitchen.

On Thursday the students form second and third years met the students from the first year. The reason was we had to share our Internship experience. I was pleasantly surprised how many people were listening and asking questions. Also, I found the meeting very interesting. It was nice to hear the stories from the others of their six months experience.

Unfortunately, on Thursday the evening, I had fever. And I was in my bed until the end of the weekend.

Thank you for reading my blog and see you next week.

Hello, everyone. I had a wonderful week. Most of the time I spent in the university. We were given a task to write an assignment about the wine history in Bulgaria.  As a culinary student, I find the theme very interesting. I went to the library and took some books.

 Here I want to say, I have a big problem with concentration. And probably that is every student problem. Most of the students buy new pencils, notebooks, text markers all of this make them excited, by me, this is not working. Sometimes I just have the idea what I want to write and sometimes it is a mess.

This week we got two of our lectures outside on the beach. The greatest experience. On the beach, I had the chance to relax. This helped me to clear my mind, and took away my worries. Then I got my idea. I don't need school supplies. I need a nice beer and good talk with my colleagues.

For the weekend I travelled to my home city Plovdiv.

 I made a surprise to one of my friends for her birthday. We had a great party with a lot of smiles and cheers.
