Servers cheat sheet
This is the ultimate cheat sheet for any server in a Mexican restaurant to copy down and memorize.
This first list here are the abbreviations or shorthand versions of the kinds of meals normally found in a Mexican restaurant.
T - taco
T S - taco salad
Faj - fajita

Ench - enchilada
Chim - chimichanga

This here is a list of the common proteins found in a Mexican restaurant.

PL - pollo linia ( shredded chicken )
Stk - steak
PG - pollo grilled ( grilled chicken )
K - (k)amaron ( shrimp )

The way that you write your orders is in this specific set up.
Meal type + protein
If your guest is ordering more than one of a single item, put the number of whatever they ordered first , then proceed with the normal order set up.
Here are some examples of how you would write them down.
Q PG - quesadilla + grilled chicken
Faj steak - Fajita + steak
3 T Cmol - 3 + Tacos + ground beef
only put the number before if they want them on the same plate. If they want them plated separately, put dashes before the order set up.
Example :
lll Q Stk - (lll) + quesadilla + steak
