If you work at a restaurant...do you ever get the recipes and make the stuff at home.?

Question

For example, if you work at Star Bucks or Olive Garden, or Chillis...do you make the stuff at home...you could save a tons of money.

Answer 1

my girlfriends family owns a restaurant and all her aunts are waiters at different restaurants.  we could make the food at home, but since her family owns one we eat for free anyways.  but the only thing about making the food at home is probably every place has rules for working there that you cant share the recipes with anyone else to reduce the risk of other places stealing it.So yes we do make the desserts and stuff but we just cant share the recipes.

Answer 2

Yep, I worked  at Macaroni grill and did it all the time and my boyfriend works at Logan's so we get a couple of the secrets for certain things.

Answer 3

i work at carrabbas italian grill and everything is literally made as fresh as possible.  i could make it at home because i know how to make most of the things, but honestly i would rather just get my 1/2 off discount and buy it i don't have the patience to make things from scratch
