Guys, I’m hyped and just have to tell someone. I’m the sous chef at my restaurant, but I work pasta on the weekends, and I got my ass BEAT this week. But I got so many compliments, I’ve never felt this good about myself. I love this job

    That is a wonderful feeling. You live to fight another day. And you probably learned a lot about your self.

    Hell yeah, I love that for you! I was in a similar boat yesterday as a bartender. My other lead bartender and I got absolutely killed during brunch ($1300 between us, and another $6700 in dining from 10-3). My other lead, who was deathly hungover, got called in because the other bartender called out sick, and we had a few regulars tell us they were glad he got called in instead because we are their favorite bartenders.

    That pasta looks delicious btw, absolutely would smash.

    A handful of servers/bartenders told me after Saturday night that they’ve never seen customers react like the ones who got pastas this weekend did – some of them went from seeming pissed/irritated to happy and “glowing” after they ate. One guy said he was from Rome and was visiting family, and I made the best spaghetti al’assassina he’d ever had. I sold so many bolognese (in the picture, not a traditional bolo but it’s one of our most popular dishes and still all from scratch, ricotta included). Another guy who got the gnocchi said he’s “never had a lemon cream sauce that’s so well balanced, and had such a nice consistency and mouthfeel”. A couple customers said it was their first time at our restaurant, and are absolutely coming back for the pasta alone.

    I’m not great as a manager, and I doubt myself a lot. But I’ve never experienced this level of pride or satisfaction with my work, especially because other people got to enjoy it. I’m just stoked

    I’m glad you can get your ass handed to you and still love your job at the end of the day we need more like you

    Killing it chef! Keep that energy and much respect for the hustle and grind!

  10. Love it Chef! Happy for you Brother 🙏🏼 When I used to baked up chocolate soufflé the servers will purposely parade it around the room before giving it to the diner, so that way everyone can see and order it as well.

    I never gotten my a** beaten like that ever again 😂

    Great work Chef. It’s the pride and passion that keeps me in this industry. No amount of rushes, bad management, and poor conditions can stop me if I get compliments from the customer. There’s something special in keeping that pride and professional integrity in tip top shape.

    Fuck yeah, dude! Good for you. Keep it up. You’ll own that place one day.

    It’s a great statement about your skills. It might also be a statement about the restaurant’s clientele. Enjoy them both.

    Cool! I live nearby. Been wanting to check this place out. Sounds like you’re killing it! Say hello to Rachel for me (Kevin)
