Chicken Satay (0155SACH)

  This month's featured chef Kyle Mason makes this "blank canvas" his own in two different ways.  He serves it "saltimbocca style" wrapped in sage and prosciutto and baked in the oven so that the prosciutto gets a nice crispiness.  Or, he marinates it in his own sweet Thai peanut sauce and tops it with black and white sesame seeds to add texture and color.

Greetings!
 
Welcome to the November issue of the PG Distributor!  This month we're talking to Chef Kyle Mason about how outstanding service is the key to retaining business.  We're also looking at hot ethnic flavors.  We'll keep things brief this month because we know you're getting busy with all your upcoming holiday events.

Ethnic Food Sales Will Continue to Grow
According to a new report, ethnic food sales will probably grow 20% over the next four years.  Mexican and Hispanic foods continue to be the most popular, but every year, immigrants from more and more companies are coming into the United States and want to see the flavors of their countries represented on store shelves and in restaurants.
 
If your menu doesn't currently include any ethnic flavors, consider experimenting with new and exciting ingredients and take advantage of the growing ethnic populations in your area, as well as diners who are willing to try new and adventurous cuisines.
Outstanding Service is the Key to Retaining Business in a Slow Economy: A Conversation with Kyle Mason  
 
Having spent much of his career working in the front of the house, Executive Chef Kyle Mason knows that service is as important as the food when it comes to pleasing your customers.  At his hotel, the Radisson Penn Harris in Camp Hill, PA, everyone, from the sales staff to the line cooks, understands the importance of good service.
 
"We really rely not only on our product, but on our service," he said.  "We really try and pride ourselves on that.  I think that's why we're getting so much repeat business."
