About to start running the kitchen of a local gem. It's a restaurant that's been around for 20 years and well known in the area. My last restaurant closed due to owners not seeing eye to eye. I've been searching for a while to find my new "home".

I starred as a simple line cook at the last place, no experience with the cuisine, but a decade experience in the industry. Worked my way up from a cook making $12/hr to a kitchen manager making $16/hr in the span of a year. Had a solid crew that I built up and trained. Mastered staying on top of labor percentage and keeping products stocked. Really finding our stride, and then getting hit with the bad news.

I've doing a lot of searching for that new spot, been a long 2 months. During that time I made decent progress with my own recipe book, covering several cuisines I've had the oppression if learning. I started the journey a long time ago making burgers and fries at Sonic. Now I'm about to run the kitchen for a beloved local restaurant with a similar cuisine. Looking forward to this new chapter.
