What does a runner do?
The Food Runner communicates orders and information between the front of house and back of house, making sure that food is cooked in the right order, quickly, and presented to the customer as beautifully as possible. Food Runners make sure the orders are being cooked in a timely fashion, so that all orders for a table are ready at the same time and make sure that once the food is cooked, servers run food to the table while it's warm and ready. They explain special orders to the cooks, and tell servers when the kitchen is out of a particular menu item. Food Runners are also in charge of the final presentation of the plate, making sure it is dressed and garnished correctly and free from smudges or spills.
