You have problems if you can’t cook with anyone else in the kitchen. My whole family loves cooking together. It’s more fun, pass the bottle of wine please.

i like cooking with other people

I don’t want someone to cook with me. I want someone to sit in the living room watching TV while I call them every once in awhile to stir a pot or something.

This is false. Cooked lunch with two friends of mine today was fun. The only downside the food was too spicy as it usually ends up when more people cook together 🤣

I have mixed feelings about this. I feel uncomfortable allowing others to use my kitchen without me at least helping out in some way. It’s my house and my kitchen. I know where everything is, goes, and does. Please stay out of the way and let me be a hospitable host!
On the other hand, I have no qualms with working alongside others in the industry, no matter the setting, as long as our paces and methods mesh well enough. I don’t want to babysit. It’s why I don’t have kids.

Nah, man, I love to cook with others.

We just want someone to sit at the table while we cook/bake and chat with us and maybe grate/shred our cheese.

I love cooking with company outside of work.
But fuck off and leave me alone when I’m on the clock.
I don’t understand it.

Me and my spouse are the outliers, we like to cook together!
TBF we started dating while working in different kitchens, and dated for 3 years before we started working in the same kitchen together. I got promoted to supervisor and he didn’t (I had more experience), the place we were working didn’t schedule us together – which wasn’t a problem to us, we understood why that was policy. However that sucked because we didn’t get to see each other much.
Now, while we do work for the same spot, I’ve moved to FOH so we don’t work directly next to each other most days, but we do some cooking gigs on the side and we still work great together.

I guess it depends on what kind of cook they are. If they can’t prep their mis en place, wants to follow a recipe but hasn’t bothered to look at it at all in advance,start grilling their proteins when they haven’t even looked at their sides, smoke up the kitchen and leave a trail of filth and destruction behind them , then yeah, get the f*ck of the kitchen!!!! Are you reading this wifey????

That stupid pocket spoon is dully stabbing me in the boob just from looking at it.

My kid is the only one allowed in the kitchen because everyone else in the family requires constant supervision

Is it just me or is that the same AI face on both people?

I want someone to sit at the kitchen counter and drink with me while I cook. I’ll even make the drinks. Just come keep me company n shit.

I love my sous chef.
But also. GTFO if you can’t flow with me.

Thats weird if you dont want to cook with anyone. As long as they listen to me and can follow directions, im happy to cook with them. Could be fun. Grab the wine and it would be a lot of fun.

Cooking with people from the industry is one thing, they know how to navigate around others in the same space, but non-industry people even just being in the kitchen drives me up the wall.

Yup. Stay out of my way when I’m cooking.

False. It is awesome having an assistant

I only want someone to chop my onions and peel potatoes

I love cooking with my sons, but anyone else, get the f*** out! We all have worked in the industry and know how to move together.

I’m fine with someone helping me prep. Like cutting meat and vegetables and getting everything ready. The actual cooking part though? Nah…don’t touch anything. Go grab a drink and sit at the dining table so we can talk, but that’s about it.

I get students asking me all the time if we cook together, and they are always shocked when I tell them absolutely not. I have to give my partner incredibly precise instructions just to make a basic red sauce. That’s how I know they don’t cook at home.
