Restaurants, Kitchens and Bars... Oh my!Many years ago, I went out with a chef. Kitchens are merely vice dens with food. You couldn't move for people bonking and snorting coke in the store room. And the things they did with the food...
My personal vice was chocolate mousse - I remember it being very calming in all the chaos around me. I think they put things in it.
Tell us your stories of working in kitchens, bars and the rest of the nightmare that is the catering trade.

Jumpin Jacks in Swansea.......after it first opened, it was (and still is) run by one of me ol' college buddies called Ed. He had to put up with some shit, but a few months in that turned out to be the problem.
You see, underneath this converted-cinema-nightclub was a small branch of Tescos which had been there for years. They were open 7 days a week and closed before the clubbers were out. This meant they'd open up with loads of rubbish and empty bottles stacked on their front.
This particular event though, was something different. Ed comes into work one afternoon being told by his workers that something's playing up with one of the toilets. He gets the plumbers in, who check it out and give it the thumbs up. They must've missed something though, as the next week the sewage system built up until it exploded, flooding half of Tescos below in human shit. Ed was not a popular bunny.
About a month after that, Tescos shut down and relocated elsewhere. Ed's still working there and lovin it :)
