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.

Famous CustomerIt was when I was working at McDonalds. I was on front counter one day, on the tills, and it was a busy Saturday afternoon. I'd finished serving a customer, said 'next please' and slowly a man wheeled himself up to my till..........it was none other than Stephen Hawkings.
As I went to get his order together, the person on drive-thru booth 3 just got there ahead of me, so I shouted over to chicken side 'How long's a veggie gonna be?'
A new smart alec new starter shouted over 'Between 3 and 4 inches'.
The Floor Manager shouted over 'The same length as the last one that came in'.
and the Store Manager shouted over, in his best Hawkings robot-esque voice, 'A-bout 2 and a half min-iiiiites'.
At least Mr Hawkings showed he had a sense of humour by saying, or rather his voicebox saying, 'ha..ha......ha, stopp-it, you're cripp-ling meeee'.
PS. We did try to get him to do the Crouchie, but he made his excuses and left
