This is the problem I have every night after work... I just can't seem to fall asleep... I don't know why... I think it's the fact that the adrenaline rush from service just doesn't wear off fast enough. I might be wrong there, but that's what it seems like.
Anyway, I've been working 40 hours a week (Sometimes more) and I've been getting my ass kicked during service. I recently started doing pizza line every now and then, and that can be a bit stressful during service... especially considering that it's only a 2 deck oven, and the bottom deck is usually used for baked ziti, tortellini, grilled cheese and for warming up panini stuff.... so yeah... To top it all off, when working pizza line, you're guaranteed to get your forearms covered in a thick layer of dried flour and sweat. It's even worse once you realize that you also have flour caked on your face.
But do I like my job? Of course I do. I really can't see myself anywhere else at the moment. I hated CDR, and I don't want to go to another restaurant at the Hotel and have to learn another menu... especially in the middle of summer... Plus, I don't think the other cooks in Trevi would appreciate me leaving as soon as I start doing well... lol
Anyway, I'm gonna try to go to bed now.... wish me luck... ttfn

- I'm a Chef and writer who has an immense passion for what I do. I tend to rant and ramble on a variety of subjects, hence the title of this blog. The "in-training" part of the title comes from my belief that no matter how experienced a chef may be, he or she should always be training him- or herself and constantly striving to become better.
