    stressfull yes but also it looks like a fun job if you have everything under control you look like ur constant in flow state. I think not everybody understands this, but flow = fun and makes things easy. hours go by like minutes. But for sure your not only baked in the head after a shift but also your body is exhausted + baked by the open oven :)

    Very seldom would I describe busy nights as “fun”, but there’s definitely a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment when you smash everything out with minimal fuckups. He is cooking 3-4 dishes which simplifies things however this kind of work is physically demanding, and an open fire line like that would be.. well, very hot.

    My husband said the same, but having cooked for 4 very fussy eaters for years, I told him that you definitely find your groove. At times I’ve found myself preparing 5 different meals at once and having them all ready at the same time. It does all come down to experience. That being said, I’d probably faint if I had to work under the same pressure that professional chefs do 😂

    Compared to some peoples job. My past one for many years ina steel mill making 80ton batches of liquid steel at 3,000°. With 2 pairs of long sleeves an long pants with hats an neck coverings an an aluminum trench coat ect. While a lot of time getting few feet from it where the clothes your wearing starts smoking on your body. An the hard hat on your head starts to warp an bubble. An the shield over your face starts to shrink an curl up from the heat. Or melting the soles off the bottom of high heat rated steel toe boots. These dudes don’t have a clue what heat is to some of us. In comparison that would be like sitting in an air conditioned room having a picnic.

    Exactly. Unless you're eating somewhere that's dead as fuck. That's not to say it's ok they fucked up your order, just have some patience and understanding. I worked a consession stand once or twice in *highschool* which was almost 15 years ago now. That shit humbled the fuck out of me. Ever since then I have had nothing but respect for people that work fast food, short order cooks, really cooks/chefs in general. Especially in high volume restaurants. These people, like so sooo many others, are the real fuckin unsung heros of our society. Calling them "heros" might be a bit to strong, but they deserve respect and admiration and to be recognized and appreciated for their labor and skill. Much more so than these disgustingly overpaid fuck wits on tv.

    Absolutely incredible! And that is just one station! Standing on the other side of that passthrough is the expeditor who is trying to pull all the orders for one table from multiple stations. It truly is incredible how few errors are made in the grand scheme of things! A well oiled machine. And hot too! LOL

    Understandable to those who has never worked a really busy kitchen. He is decent, not bad but not good. Plating is super simple and rustic (nothing against him, maybe that’s just the restaurants style). This would be considered a slow night at any busy restaurant. He only has to control his station, he does not have to send out dishes and he even say he is in the weeds with only 5 active chits and 3 waiting. But I do love that he is organized, pleasant, takes pride in his work and he keeps a clean station. I would definitely hire him. He could be trained to do better. I was going to say I was impressed until seeing the triple mussels dishes at the end of the video. Portion size not the same for each plate. Sauce definitely not the same and the plating was just thrown on. Worst is he changed up the plating for these three plates compared to his single plating. The most important thing in the kitchen is every dish comes out the same.

    Chef to chef here, I don’t understand the plating concept. You make dots on plate then just drop potatoes right on top, a plate of mussels with chips right on top, then you serve salmon with one of them having list the skin. This is probably not your fault and I understand that you may have been a bit busy but a little more love and care on how you plate things, go a long way.

I guess that's just the world we live in now. Plus, if more people saw videos like this maybe they would stop deluding themselves and stay out of the kitchen. I hope your videos inspire the right people and scare off the wrong people 👍

    I'm one of those guys who's a very good home cook but I watch things like this and know that this is not my skillset. I need my space, I need to focus on what I've got planned. To share my space with others, to be in a chaotic environment, to have orders coming in and dishes being sent back to the kitchen and have to be careful about turning around with hot dishes... nope! I admire these abilities so much but this is not where I belong. So at least one person sees videos like this and takes the right lesson from it ;) On the other hand, I bet there are people out there watching this and thinking "oh yeah, he put X in the fire two minutes ago, I bet he goes back for it now, then he's going to sauce Y, and that salmon has been out for a while, that must be next" - those people will be inspired!
