French Market


Instead of going to a catering party, Jacob and I worked at the Katz Club booth at the French Market in Ohio City. Throughout the event we were preparing the sandwiches that were being sold. I had the vegetarian ones and Jacob had the BLTs. After the first hour, both of our backs were in pain from hunching over for so long. Tempting us near by was an ice cream stand with amazing strawberry ice cream that had balsamic drizzled on it. No worries, we got some when we took our lunch breaks. The day went by quickly, but after a while making the same sandwich got tiring. While making the sandwiches the four of us at the market were able to talk and hang out when the lunch rush was dying down. I had a lot of fun helping out at the French Market and it was a nice change of pace. We got to be outside on a beautiful day instead of being stuck inside. Doug Katz was wondering whether or not to continue doing this the next month and I think that they should. Although you don’t make that much money, it is a great place to gather new customers that have never been to the diner before.

  2. That was definitely a unique experience. It was really interesting to see how much effort goes into something as little as BLT or veggie sandwiches at a street fair. I definitely couldn't be around bacon for a few days after. It ended up getting a bit more intense than I thought it would be but everything turned out very nicely.
