Who cares. I ORD already!!!!
It would be quite sad though. Another NSF wasting his 2yrs in NS being a cook to defend the nation. -
maybe they should set up a SAF kitchen unit .... n haf kitchen officers n specs as chefs .... while the rest all jus help around the kitchen

Of course the Cooks must be trained properly and there must be a qualiied chef type to update the menu constantly.
Oh, and the SAF might want to make the Cook's course a little easier. Last I heard, the SAF cooking course is the hardest course in the army and no one has ever passed it!

Have you tried army cook food before? If you have you would not say that SFI food sucks. Cos when you compare head to head, the SFI food is definitely better and it comes with more variety. Granted, SFI food can be bad sometimes but it is still better than army cook food.Originally posted by hao_hao:actually not much of a diff.... sometimes SFI food sux ... whilt army cook food aleays sux -
During my BMT, the food were cooked by army cooks, the rice is really terribly hard. Now SFI is much better although they served chicken everyday...
-
Whatever the taste of the food, at the end of the day it is still free.
So enjoy it while you can before you ORD.
ORD loh! -
Oh my....

Make sure when that happens, it better happens after 2009...Originally posted by stookie:SFI contract expires n SAF decides to cut cost n go back to the good old days where NSF cooks will cook for us army guys in the cook house...
good idea?
n not only that, SAF decides to lay off those camp cleaners, sweepers etc.
Then some people will be vocationed just to clean toilets, offices and sweep the camp area in camp.
Then e mart auntie is now replaced by NSF cashier
good idea?
Then like this, with the cost cut, SAF might increase the NSF allowances -
Cooks will use their socks to made coffee and tea for the commanders.

Ask Navy people. I think they still have Chefs on board.
Can't imagine the cookhouse auntie on board ship with so many guys for days. -

You forget that there is no reason for army cooks to be bad. What if the money given to SFI is used to properly train cooks? I think there is a possiblity that quality would improve.Originally posted by Theballstopshere:Have you tried army cook food before? If you have you would not say that SFI food sucks.

Btw, I have tasted food under the old regime before - there was sand in the vegetables. Obviously someone didn't do a very good job of washing the vegetables. But like I said, there is no reason for low standards. -

What must one do to pass? Get Michelin Stars? -
There is a reason my friend, and that is the same reason why SAF is a cock-up organisation - the lack of motivation. I highly doubt that even if SAF cooks are trained well they will cook well. The reason why paper work gets so long to be processed in SAF is because a lot of these stuff are handled by regulars and NSFs who are not motivated.Originally posted by scabstermooch:You forget that there is no reason for army cooks to be bad.

Regulars because they are in it for the pay only, and NSFs simply because they are conscripts. With NSF cooks, I think the situation will be worse.
I am all for army cooks as it brings back the authenticity of being an army but I personally think being an army cook is easily one of the worse vocations to be in. -
before that they must draw it from the Panskote.Originally posted by Gordonator:must fall in every morning in full battle order consisiting of frying pan, cooking pots, forks and spoon for first parade right?
every last parade, must send in Pans.
then DO must check that all Pans are in before he locks the Panskote.
