Emmeline Zhao, Managing Partner at Silver Apricot in New York's West Village, leads us behind the scenes for an all access look at how the staff handles a busy Friday evening rush, serving hundreds of consistently high-quality small plates a night from their 90 square foot kitchen.

What other types of kitchens and professional operations would you like to see filmed like this ? Let us know here.
i would love to see how a fancy banquet gets handled! or one of those really exclusive posh places without prices on the menu lol. but honestly anything will be interesting - it could be a food truck or a michelin starred restaurant (or a bakery/tea shop!) and i will still watch
I would love to see a restaurant that survived the lockdown by transitioning to a food truck and deciding to successfully stay as one (or two).
Restaurant with a heavy sushi-element. That would be amazing to see. Oh and really popular food trucks.
italian would be so fun to see
idc just do more videos like this
Tells the chef that his zig zags are uneven, then runs the dish to the wrong table lol. Classic front of house.
the one thing doesnt have to do anything with the other
@@netspheres They have two things to do with the other, in fact.
@@LosBerkos why does she have to be flawless to criticize someone lol
@@netspheres cause, just cause. 😂
lol
I love this vid! Not many people understand the stress of working in a restaurant kitchen. The long hours, no days off, and constant stressful environment, lets respect those who dedicate their life working in hospitality
Super vlog 👍 🤝 +1
I mean… I’ve always thought it looked nearly impossible… much respect
It shouldn't have to be like that though.
Oh hello fave chef
thats how big resturants be
9:42 that's what she gets for flaming his zigzags lol. All jokes aside, this was an amazing video. The food looks so good and creative. I would love to visit one day
ahahaha that was my first thought.
She 100% picks the plate up and serves it to the right table if there are no cameras present.
I'm in awe. With these videos you get so much appreciation for the hardwork that goes into what we eat. Always be nice to your servers and praise the people who make your food. 😊
This is the best content BA has produced since Gourmet Makes. I want more!

This is incredibly impressive how much you do with such a small space and so few people.
Okay this is humbling and awe inspiring. What a fabulous story. I love the boss running that pass 1000/10 so clean so professional. The three in the kitchen re-heating or second step assembling WOW OMFG these guys are good!!! This is obviously such a respectful team who truly cares about the food they are surviving. 1000/10 again wow wow wow so well done on everyone’s part. Fantastic!!!!
"Drew, your zig zags are a little uneven eh?" This is a reason why I don't miss my days of working at a fancy restaurant lol.
I've been in kitchens for a few years I would never break Into the fine dining world so much stress and precision It would be tough.
I dont think a single chef would miss it once they get out.
BA this is the best content youve made a while please keep up this series
I absolutely loved this video! I hope this video gets the respect it so much deserves! I have done this job for the better part of my life, after having kids (just before Covid) changed jobs. But life at the pass still gets me, it was always a trill to get the evening rolling! Much love!
So organized and the food looks amazing !!
I love these videos, it's incredible to see the intricate art that happens inside New York City kitchens.
this is my favorite episode so far of this series well done!
i love this SO much. please keep making these
No love for the primo in the back ensuring all the pans and pots are there and clean so they don’t cross contaminate or get embarrassed huh?
he has a non-speaking role apparently.
BA needs to make more videos like this. Showing the same people in their test kitchen gets a little boring, but never when Brad is involved!
Admirable kitchen staff. Valuable content. Great narration. Perfect clip length.
Keep making this series!!
Does no one else feel sorry for this staff? I admire their skill but those working conditions are unsustainable.
yeah all the stationary standing will kill their legs in the long term
Welcome to the restaurant world
Almost every restaurant has "unsustainable" working conditions. Working in a kitchen is probably one of the most stressful jobs on the planet. There's rarely any time to rest for a minute.
I would have a hard time not getting frustrated with that one-way criticism dynamic at the pass.
Yeah man and she probably underpay them too 😂
It's not personal. Expo always is in control and proactive in their communication and the cooks are reactive and basically trust her calls.
crazy to think that that criticism is what keeps the dynamic and quality perfect in this kitchen. the chefs trust her, and vice versa. it’s a great atmosphere
I'm sure the chefs got a good chuckle after she came back to fess up to her mistake with the chicken dish lol
I love this series coz I can understand how the kitchen works.
With 15 yrs in the food service industry, I thought this would give flashbacks. LOL It did not but it did delight me to bits! Passionate restauranteurs talking out their PROCESS!!!
Yes! Special Interest Monologue!
Every time i see videos like this, i am blown away by the amount of labor and product is needed to run a restaurant regardless of size. I cherish every meal i have at any restaurant
We need more content like this. I like to see how other chefs and restaurant owners run their kitchen.
James just completely unfazed by the rice cake rocket at 10:18
Great video! Hope this is a continuing series.
I love this. Got some efficiency tips for my small cafe kitchen.
what about the guy who is cleaning the dishes ? he should have the same recognition as everyone lol
Exactly
No
Employers like to hide away their illegal immigrant workers because of the illegality.
We all know dish pit recieves the least recognition while also recieving the most verbal abuse.
What a beautifully well oiled machine. In such a confined space. Very impressive.
Loved this video format!
I love this video format. Do more please !!!
Excellent video! Such dedication in such tight quarters! Great looking food too!
Very cool content this, would love to see more of this format!
one of my fave series!! more plss
This was really fascinating. Thanks
loved this!!
Super interesting to see, want more of this type of videos.
I love these multi cam episodes. The diner one is rad too!
Please do more of these!
I love this video format
in my college days, i worked in BIG line kitchens. bravo for working in such a small space. FYI: love the content.
That was astounding. Small, tight, efficient and high quality. Very admirable and likely to stay around for quite some time. Great vid 😎👍🏼
This is insane and impressive. The cooks deserve a bigger kitchen!
Love these vids. Make me wanna go out to eat!
Great series. Do many more of these.
What an amazing team!
This is truly excellent content!

So much respect for everyone in the kitchen!
Awesome insight video! Would love to see more videos based on a day in the life of a chef.

I could honestly watch this for hours
very fascinating!
Amazing!!! 😍
very smart and well organized team! everyone seems to like just go with the flow XD well done to the team 👌
That was great 👏🏼
havent watched it yet, but thx for this brilliant idea, i am a professionel trained chef and would love to see ppl beeing able to see what a real kitchen service is like!
OMG I am impressed and one complaining about the kitchens that give us this is wonderful I will show this to my colleagues
Felt so calm watching the hectic-ness of working in a resto. Massive well done to them for talking in such a respectful tone to each other. Unlike other kitchens I've seen on TV haha...
Wow. Awesome vid.
Is it weird that i want to watch this all day lol
Xavier's back sweat off the paddle fan really adds the secret umami flavor to all the grilled meats lol
Right? Isn't that a health hazard of some sort? Same reason you dont hang tongs on your apron.
Great teamwork and toast pos helps with the smooth flow of the operation.
Whoa. Amazing video.
Great informative video.
High Quality, Excellence, Efficiency. This is the true essence of Lean!
Omg best vid 💯
this video is art
This reminds me of how I managed to cook for 6 people in my apartment with about 30x30cm of counter space left to prep everything, except on top worldclass restaurant level. Absolutely amazing!
Seriously badass efficient and nice menu.
I love her voice , great video
They handle that tiny kitchen beautifully. Keep up with this style.
amazing
Such a cool video. The REAL food network.
wah this video is TRULY awesome... lovely the 'subtleties' in the comments..noice... thank you for producing this video... loved it.. more pls
did she intentionally give away the chicken because it didnt have the perfect zigzag and mask it as a mistake so that the chef could do it again for the right table who ordered?
I worked in a restaurant for 10 years, 6 years as a Lead/server and 4 years as a manager. The only thing I miss is the food, that's it haha
those 3 chefs cook, plate and garnish all by themselves its amazing. best treat them well cuz otherwise im sure every other restaurant in the city will snatch these guys up.
Great video.
just as amazing as the Michelin-Starred Restaurant one
More please
Great video
The induction stoves also help with reducing the amount of unwanted heat
So dishwashers are not counting as team members?..
Duh. Now shut up and get back to the pit!
Wow !
Cool!
this restaurant seems amazing! the only thing I wish that they use tray to serve food
awesome
I hope these guys are paid well
probably not
Doubt it
Keep hoping bud
Nice to see restaurants getting back to business as usual.
I didn't even notice this was BA 👀 well done 👏🏼
very nice
So interestin
