Streamlining Kitchen Workflow

I’ve been experimenting with different ways to improve our kitchen workflow, and one thing that’s made a huge difference is assigning specific roles during prep time. It really helps everyone stay focused and speeds things up, especially during peak hours. Anyone else have tips on making the most of their team’s strengths?

I’ve found that using a centralized communication board during service really helps keep everyone in sync. It’s especially useful when orders change or special requests come in last minute. Have you tried that approach, or do you prefer relying on verbal communication?
