Two cooks remove a pan from an oven in the Los Angeles County General Hospital's kitchen while an administrator watches. A cook at left holds onto a peel while standing behind a table. Behind and to the right of him, an administrator stands beside the wall oven and peers towards a tray of food. The oven is inset into the wall at center. Another cook stands to the right of the oven and guides the pan of food out of the oven and onto the peel. Behind him, at right, several pans of food sit on a shelving unit. Subway tiles surround the oven and line its wall.
