I am the head Chef at a restaurant need an idea.?

grilled salmon in a lemon dill sauce with fingerling potatoes and asparagus. and for dessert a chocolate soufflee

I wish I was a head chef

How about Maryland Style Jumbo Lump Crabcakes served with Fried Green Tomatoes and Smashed Potatoes, and for Dessert a Lemon Tart with a Ginger Sorbet? Seems perfect for a June Menu.

Well, the two most popular dishes we make at home are baked, stuffed turkey with all the extras including fresh fruit salad with whipped cream as a dressing and with a melted marshmallow, whipped cream, fruit cocktail pie in graham cracker crust as dessert, OR spring rolls with a sweet and sour sauce. That's just from my sometimes difficult hostess experience.

But as a restaurant visitor, for me it's half comfortable, friendlly atmosphere and half good cooking. Maybe you should just do some little thing to make your guests feel special, like give each a flower or a choice of a surprise package to take home. That sounds small, but little things have big effect.

Or have a theme of the day, or costume party and let the waitresses dress up, (if they want to) or have a fifties theme and give everyone free coffee for a day. If that's affordable! Or have a special vegetarian or extra-healthy or low-cal lunch and advertise it ahead of time.

Home Made Apple pie for dessert made with my grandmother's recipe!

I'm from a southwestern background and a little bit of a armature chef myself, but I think a Honey Adobo Pork Loin served with a Black bean, Roasted Corn and Pistachio croquette might be a really interesting side dish. I'm experimenting with the croquettes myself this weekend, so, no suing me if I ever get famous :).

A really playful desert would be a hollow churro pipped with a kind of no bake cheesecake filling and served with a caramel dip.

Main Dish- Chicken Tetrazzini

Dessert- Raspberry Cristada with sliced almonds on top

WEll i really dont kow of a main dish or a desert but i know of a side dish that taste great and well its good for you. take thin sliced potatos and put them in a pan then poor some ranch dressing in it and simmer it for about 15 to 20 min.. It might not sound great but try it.. you will love it..

Main - Honey soy garlic steak (I pefer med/rare)

with a side of fresh steamed veggies or salad with beer battered chips (fries)

Dessert - Good old creme brulee (if thats how you spell it)

Hope this helps!
