Mise En Place Checklist

Mise En Place Checklist is a practical private-dining term that turns the host’s expectations and the site’s constraints into an agreed plan before service.

Context

Check prepared ingredients, labels, portions, tools and station readiness before service.

Example

Mark the person responsible for each item, not only whether something was purchased.
