Avi Demoted on Line of Power for WotW Exhibition, Stephan to Serve as HSC

-Morro Bay, Ca.
-Jan Stephan will serve as Head Sous-Chef tonight at Windows on the Water in Morro Bay, as Lynn Avi has been demoted to the lowly seventh line of power.

The demotion is a temporary one for Avi's own safety.  Avi wanted to participate even after a severe ankle sprain she suffered after a slip-and-fall on Saturday.  It was uncertain how that would be accomplished, until now.

As one goes down on the lines of power, each descending line of power has less power and responsibility than the one above it.  Placing Avi on the lowest line of power will allow her to participate while reducing the amount of work she will have to conduct, which will hopefully ease any strain on her ankle.

Another key element of the relocation on the line of power is the fact that Avi's role of Head Sous-Chef requires much mobility due to one of its main facets of acting as a messenger role between the Head Chefs' Table and the chef body as a whole.  This requires much running and dashing around, which could further strain Avi's injury.

Avi sustained the injury after slipping and falling Saturday on a Midtown Manhattan sidewalk.  "Just clumsy me being clumsy me," she joked of the injury earlier Monday.
