Opening, closing, and side work are what keep the operation running smoothly before, during, and after service. These tasks are not filler or busy work. They protect food quality, speed, cleanliness, and the experience our guests have at the window. Every shift depends on these steps being completed fully and with intention. When everyone does their part, service flows better, mistakes are reduced, and the team can focus on cooking and serving good food.
