i'll add to this for a day in the life of Fallow..From Delivery-Prep-Cook-Service

[@ThomasBarthoulot]

Or a service-long POV ?

[@tmdpc]

Live feed would be amazing.

[@MrBoytonius]

[@ProperSendoff]

I put this on at work

[@rfl225]

I would love a narrated version of these videos, some discussion on what your doing and why would be brilliant. As a non-chef it would be amazing to understand your thought process and decision making, as clearly there is a huge amount going on

[@hondomclean6759]

What did you want to know?

[@jsaylor1980]

​@@hondomclean6759all of it are they not serving the whole table what is he highlighted and crossed off. All seems so confusing

[@qubdude5661]

@@jsaylor1980 i worked in a restaurant before doing that exact job , and it’s mostly organising the orders , making sure the standers are high , food it hot etc

[@qubdude5661]

Iv got a pov you can see me doing a bit during a low time

[@ALEXWITHO]

How do you know what to shake what to check on what's cooking when I'd be absolutely burning everything your doing 50 things at once I can't even make cheese on toast

[@mikejenkins6985]

Love these. I'm the head chef at a top steakhouse in Colorado and it's nice to see the structure. I pay more attention to all the equipment and processes than anything lol

[@superplague]

Exact same here. I’ve worked in kitchens for almost a decade now and I can’t get over how nice this kitchen is 😂 and the pass is so organized I love it

[@birch5757]

People who haven't done it/been around it don't really understand the level of thought and comm that goes into running the pass. I have 13 years of serving experience, but I crossed to being a chef awhile back. So I see it from both angles. Also, I'm #2 in the kitchen, but I was appointed pretty quickly as the guy in charge of making sure the FOH employees weren't up to anything...😂

[@korylp6219]

AJ is becoming my favourite. He’s crushing it lately. I only imagine how hard in this fast environment scrambled eggs are to do perfect when getting to the pass if they sit for 30secs too long. Much more stress than dinner, love these videos!

[@piodavid]

It's always nice to see a POV of something other than a chef standing at a station making the same few dishes. To be able to see the teamwork that it takes to put out these great dishes at the pace and quality that they do is amazing. Keep up the great work!

[@tommyatt4094]

Ever since watching you guys. I now say 'Fire up' to everything we cook in the kitchen 😂 I even tell the kids to 'Fire up' some toast

[@FallowLondon]

Love that!

[@ALEXWITHO]

​@@FallowLondon wow amazing videos keep them coming lovely to see you talking to your staff with respect no yelling or shouting or be littling anyone ❤ quite refreshing and not being a idiot like Ramsey thinking your the dogs bollcks, really appreciate the friendliest in the kitchen

[@iAdzii]

or "drop", like dropping fries etc

[@theelusivehombre9835]

No intro, no outro, no random ads... just pure organized chaos in motion. Love your videos, thank you!

[@lowecypher8761]

Organizing orders, quality checking, kitchen and service staff management, etc. Head Chefs had the hardest part of making sure that every operation runs smoothly. Watching this POV, made me respect the head chef at the restaurant I work for even more. This team is so orderly, calm and fluid that I had fun watching.

[@ismat92]

Brunch crushes. Especially after a long saturday service. I love how you guys show the whole service, mistakes and misfires included. Even in the crazy rush standards are kept. Super awesome video guys.

[@ANCIENTASTRONAUT]

I am the top head chef at the imaginary waffle house inside my head

Thanks for the laugh

[@mrboneman4354]

i LOVE even though he is the owner he knows the servers name and also teaches at the same time about how to keep the eggs a little raw and how to prepare a dish and how it should look in the presentation.

[@yosufrocks0]

Could we get even longer videos please, they’re great to watch

[@lilsponge777]

Somehow when in an office working alone this seems like ASMR to listen to.. Always find it fascinating how it all comes together and how food remains hot.. This video has made me want to have scrambled eggs for lunch.

[@andiparker3733]

What's AMSR?

[@lilsponge777]

@@andiparker3733 I don't think it fully fits the definition for ASMR but it serves as great white noise.

[@hizaruasuma5689]

7:40 That was exactly my first thought when I saw that scrambled egg. It was very lumpy and dense (Rock solid in Gordon Ramsay dictionary). Great quality check, Jack.

[@onixtheone]

I would eat it happily

[@hizaruasuma5689]

@@onixtheone well, I also would love to eat it. It just great to see a chef trying to maintain the quality and make sure customer always get the best food. You could see the hesitation a little bit after he's stirring those scrambled egg, but still choose to restart it.

In a good way, I’m going to go out on a limb and say this chef has gotten his arse kicked in at a restaurant before! His patience, discipline, and demeanor are that from experience! Well done chef!🫡🙏🏻

How much do I have to pay one of you lads to give me a recommendation with Fallow to join the team? 😂 Hahaha I'm kidding, I love the challenge. One day, once I feel confident enough to be at the teams level, I'll gladly come in and request a trial shift. You guys are amazing, honestly, seeing the rest of the team on the channel and the passion, it's incredible. Exactly what I strive for. To bring a smile to the customers who I put my heart and soul to make a delicious dish for is worth every second of hard work. 🎉 Well done guys. Fallow is an inspiration to me as a chef.

[@viniciuscoxoba3842]

These videos are my background music to work

[@natekeyss]

Love these videos ! Three questions haha 1. How do you make the scrambled eggs look so good? 2. WHat is the silver dish called that you plate off of? 3. Where do you get those black microfibres? Thanks. Please carry on with this series! Much love from Cape Town

[@Humanprototype-wh8qr]

Watch on yt scrambled eggs Prefered from marco w piere

[@LUDAQUENDERO64]

its really just a lot of butter and constantly stirring them on and off the heat

[@natekeyss]

@@LUDAQUENDERO64 cheers man, they look really good.

[@_Tim.Morris_]

It's a European style scramble Small trays, we use small/medium pizza trays Black micro fiber would probably be provided by a linen company who would wash all the tea towels and cloths. Alternatively Google it Hope this helps

[@natekeyss]

@@_Tim.Morris_ Thanks so much man

I'm addicted to this

[@AtrolinK]

Another couple of videos and i can work in that restaurant

I'm 23 y.o guy who wish to be eaten here in somedays, hopefully. The atmosphere was very cosy through the screen, love to be there soon.

[@M8TRIX777]

egg on the side seems like the way to go. jeez I want some soft scramble right about now

[@epps8686]

I work in a similar position in food service but no where close to this level. I plate and serve the orders and while the work is hard and stressful, it is fulfilling. Eventually i want to up my game to this level. It looks even more fun.

[@Kent-Eric]

One ticket with several dishes represents often one table with several guests. I can see that the service is not syncronized for each table and the time on the ticket. I can see there is another system in use there they work over several tabels/tickets syncronly.

[@maccorum9425]

Can i be the dude that eats all the extras out of the pans before they get thrown out?

[@Johnny_Thunder]

This looks extremely stressful and difficult. Such attention to detail needed constantly.

[@STSGuitar16]

I swear this man makes the most uneven portion sizes it drives me bananas lol. He’ll hook one piece of toast up with a nice two egg scramble, meanwhile the second piece of toast gets a measly runt egg treatment. We need equality, folks. Scramble sizes matter.

[@BestFilmproducer]

POV: Head Chef Slow Brunch & Lunch Service at an Average Bristol Restaurant for comparison would be awesome. (I could never work at that speed. I'd get a heart attack before age 40, but it's amazing to see people who can handle it.)

[@nickcannonsjokewriter]

this is such a great channel

[@RobertHowe-f5z]

Fine teamwork; well done ! 😊

[@barnapkins]

What is the Chef doing with the high-lighting and sharpie? Im assuming he crosses off what has been done and high-lighting what needs to be done?

[@waimandododo5760]

Pretty much. Plus writing the table number bigger for easy to spot

[@thecanadianculinarycareers9912]

Sometimes they highlight modifications, allergies, special service notes, if the table is VIP

[@GallaceGeneral]

Hey @FallowLondon..... Love the videos of your service's. Keep them coming. What would also be good to see is what you're doing on the pass when the tickets come in, for example, when Jack writes the numbers on the tickets (I assume table numbers), or when he highlights something on them. Also, it looks like tickets are printed in multiple places in the kitchen and what orders are Jack and Will giving and why. I appreciate that providing an explanation may be hard to do during a busy service so maybe you can take a previous video and narrate over that. Just a suggestion. Thanks.

[@duncansmith6696]

News just in!!! Fallow has all the 9 pots!.

With the price of eggs the way they are, I see a lot of them wasted in this service

I honestly thought as soon as the scrambled eggs weren't done properly. He was going to go into full Gordon Ramsay mode.

[@Pincopalin]

I only wish people would realise that what they see is just a tip of the iceberg. This is how you run in the kitchen after you’ve prepared all those sauces, components, sides, meats and herbs. When a chef gets finally to the service, usually he or she have behind several hours of hard work. Hundreds of pieces of the puzzle that need to come together at the right time. And as soon as one service is over, it all starts again. And all that just to read a review that the wait for a main dish was too long and the chips were not piping hot, whilst costing an incredible £6. On top of that you get bullied by EHO, the fire safety, HM revenue and the council, which asks you to pay an extortion rates for rubbish removal and insane business rates. This is the reason we are getting to a situation when on the market will only be the McDonalds for £2,50 per burger or Heston Blumenthal for £600/dinner and all others will be allowed to go to tesco and buy some meal for their microwave

[@pinmast0r]
