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.

Fish shop shenanigansI worked in a fish shop/kebab shop/pizza shop as a delivery guy a few years back, to fund my uni drinking habit. The guy who owned it, and did all the fish and chip frying was a right tight arse. At the end of the night, if there was any battered stuff left in the lightbox heater thing, he would peel the batter off, and keep the thing inside to re-batter an fry the next night! Saw the mucky beggar batter and fry the same jumbo sausage for 4 nights running at one point! Was as black as pitch inside.
Also, when one of the local gangsters put his trooper through the side of the shop while full of coke, ripping the pizza oven off the wall, while talking to the cops the owner made his wife keep serving fish shop stuff. Money grabbing get that he was.
I know it's long. You can afford the time though, you are here after all.
