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.

Dodgy Cheques
So I start my glass collecting job at the Uni bar. Things are going quite well. I've already had a couple of complimentary drinks !
I see one of the barmaids giggling - "what's up ?" I ask....
"that guy's on the 'don't serve list' cos his cheques bounce"
I laughed out loud but stopped when she showed me the list and my name was on it.
None of them knew my full name, and hence my shame, however, I declined any further offers of work from the bar. dammit - free beer lost
