INTRODUCTION
This report will pertain to Indian cuisine which enjoys popularity globally and will be
executed in the organizational context of Celebrity Indian restaurant which is one of the most
critically successful and highly rated restaurant situated in Birmingham, UK and is the one which
offers classic dishes and innovative cuisine (Celebrity Indian Restaurant, 2022). The first 4
weeks of my experience working as an assistant manager of this establishment will be detailed to
highlight employee work practices and the practical knowledge I gained by working with an
established brand in a highly competitive industry.
MAIN BODY
Week 1
I was hired as the assistant manager of Celebrity Indian Restaurant after going through a
rigorous selection process as it is a very well established restaurant and managing a Michelin star
awarded organization is a very demanding task. I was welcomed at my job and felt at ease from
the very first day as I was familiar with most of the staff and the dishes they served as I am an
Indian myself. The people of Celebrity Indian Restaurant take the standards of fine dining they
provide to their guests very seriously and this is also evident from the expectations they have
from their staff. I was subjected to a proper induction training during my first week where I was
handed instruction manuals and handbooks containing various rules, regulations and company
policies which I was required to adhere to. I was also given a detailed tour around the various
facilities of the restaurant such as the private dining hall and the opulent bar. I also received a
rundown of all my major responsibilities in relation to my job by the head manager at the end of
the first week which included tasks such as staff quality control, food inspection, building
supplier relationships and inventory management.
