CABIN ATTENDANT CALLS FROM LOWER GALLEY TO INFORM FLC OF OVEN FIRE. SO CHKS AND ASSISTS WITH FIRE EXTINGUISHER.

Narrative

APPROX 25 MINS AFTER TKOF FROM PBI; I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE FLT ATTENDANT IN THE LOWER GALLEY; STATING THERE WAS SMOKE (AND MAYBE EVEN COOKIES OR GALLEY FIRE). I WAS NOT ALARMED BY HER CALL AND FAILED TO ASK APPROPRIATE QUESTIONS -- TYPE FIRE; ETC. I OFFERED MY ASSISTANCE AND CAME DOWN WITHOUT ALARMING PAX. AS A SIDE NOTE; I'M NOT SURE THE WORD FIRE WAS USED BUT ACTUALLY 'WE'VE BURNED THE COOKIES OR POSSIBLY THE COOKIES ARE ON FIRE;' SO MY REACTION WAS MILD. UPON ARR; I FOUND THE LOWER GALLEY FILLING WITH SMOKE. 1 FLT ATTENDANT WAS USING A HALON EXTINGUISHER TO NO AVAIL. I TOOK A SECOND EXTINGUISHER AND A 10-15 SECOND BLAST 'SUFFOCATED' THE FLAMES. WE THEN CLOSED THE OVEN; SHUT OFF THE VENT; AND DISCHARGED ANOTHER EXTINGUISHER INTO THE VENT CHUTE. THE FIRE WAS OUT IN ONLY A MATTER OF MINS AND VENTILATION PROCS DISSEMINATED THE SMOKE. WE CONTINUED TO DEST (LGA). ALTHOUGH ALTERNATE RECOVERY (DIVERSION TO JAX) WAS IN COORD. FACTORS NOTED: EXPERIENCE OF FLT ATTENDANTS (NEW); INCOMPLETE INFO; COOKIES WERE ERRONEOUSLY LOADED IN OVENS NOT WARMERS AS IS NORMAL PROC. CHKLIST PROCS (INITIALLY) NOT IMPLEMENTED DUE TO INCOMPLETE INFO/INTERROGATION. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 260158: TO PREVENT RECURRENCE OF THE PROB IS TO EMPHASIZE TO THE FLT ATTENDANTS THE PROPER PROC TO BAKE THE COOKIES AND POSSIBLY A THOROUGH INSTRUCTION SHEET TO BE PLACED ON THE COOKIES DETAILING THE PROPER WAY TO BAKE COOKIES.
