I’m about 2-3 years into kitchen experience and these guys are top notch. It is no easy task maintaining speed and presentation while having a bunch of waiters asking for things and having to do 3x the work for mediocre pay. Cooking experience is the best type of experience young people like myself can have.

It's even better when a team has chemistry. Builds trust.

Back in the 80s I was these guys. It was great. I love watching people who are good at what they do.

I think I have just changed my mind about being a cook in a cook line. Here I thought I was pretty good cooking for three or four within the family. but watching this, I think I'll tell them to go into town and order breakfast.

No sir. It's about efficiency across the board. You have to have the whole kitchen and its elements from where the wire wisk and the half-and-half is located mapped out in your minds eye. Where you can basically navigate where everything's at blindfolded. Food prep is 80-90% of the work. The rest is just execution.
