The most stressful day would have to be during the summer of 2018. First a little background so the story makes sense. The kitchen part of the restaurant is better described as the back of a bar than an actual kitchen, it is a very small and tight space. Every summer we have one Friday night where we have a Prime Rib dinner with the fixings. Unlike all other dinners, this one is by reservation only due to the popularity of it. It is always a very chaotic day, but this one was complicated by the fact that the oven decided to die earlier in the day when we went to start cooking the Prime Rib. Luckily there is a rev hall with a a kitchen right next door that we are able to use so we quickly stuck the food in the oven in that kitchen. But this meant we had to run back and forth each time we needed a new rib to cut. If this was enough the oven repair man finally showed up right in the middle of the dinner service and was laying on the floor in front of the oven trying to fix it. So we spent the entire time carefully stepping over the repair man anytime we had to go from one side of the kitchen to the other. It was definitely comical to those watching and after the fact to us working, but while it was happening it was very stressful.
