Announcement #4
Salute to Valued Employee: ROGERT KINDELAN LAMOUR

Rogert (row-HAIR) has been an integral part of the Que SeRaw SeRaw team for over one year. He came to California from Cuba about two years ago, and has learned to speak English during that time. He works in the afternoons (after school at College of San Mateo) six days a week consistently. His contribution to the team consists of preparing us for the next day with all of the food preparation.

To give you an idea, kale prep alone is about 250 bunches per month! He is the best "cracker-spreader" we've ever had. In addition, he cleans the dishes and does the end-of-day clean up, so that we come into a bright and shiny clean kitchen every single day. He serves our customers with grace and charm and with the warmest smile you can imagine. But the best part about Rogert is his big huge heart, his caring attitude, and the amazing good vibes he eminates. Huge amounts of love enter your food from this young man. We are proud to have him as a member of the Que SeRaw SeRaw team.

Many people ask me if I teach classes, and I simply have no time to do so. In addition, I truly feel that the best way to learn is by doing. So I created the “Kitchen Angel Volunteer Program”. Contact Alicia if you are interested in finding out more information about how it works.

"My experience working as a kitchen angel with Alicia at QueSeRaw has been nothing short of magical! I've learned so much and am truly in awe of how everything works so well together. Anyone who has ever tasted Alicia's food knows how delicious, nourishing, and just plain wonderful it is -- and after working behind the scenes for just a short time, I can now wholeheartedly confirm that what makes her food so fabulous is not simply her amazing recipes or even her first rate ingredients, it's what she seems to add to everything she creates - lots of love!"
