A black and white photo shows a group of eight people in a large kitchen. They are all smiling and looking at the camera. Most of the people are wearing white aprons and small caps on their heads. One person in the front is holding a small white card. On the left side of the room, there is a large window with many small panes of glass. On the right side, there is a big cooker and other kitchen tools.
