It's Monday!  Here's a recap of last week.  I had a chance to chat with Robert Weaver about the work involved in managing Couch Restaurants, Cate a la carte, and Wagner dining.  I also got to meet with Shawn Henry and learn about how she manages the Union restaurants, Couch Express, Bedrock Cafe, the Bookmark, Amicus Cafe, Elements, the Redbud Cafe, and the Flying Cow.  I also got to spend Wednesday at the Flying Cow observing/helping Rhonda Winkelman and her team work their magic and learning about the detail work that goes into supplying Cow on the Fly sandwiches to multiple locations throughout campus.  Thursday was spent visiting the Union, where I got to see how the Laughing Tomato is run.  TJ Carter encouraged me to send her my recipe ideas, and Carren Welch answered any and all questions I had about how she manages the food inventory and keeps everything fresh.  Thanks to everyone who gave me their insights this week.  I have gotten the impression that rotating at OU Food Services for my internship is a unique opportunity to see many sides of food service management with a variety of different types of food service operations all functioning as a team to bring a quality food environment to students.
