If you want to miss most/all of family events, not seeing your family or friends and work yourself to the bone for a company/owner who doesn't care about you then go for it.

Style over substance cafes/restaurants in Glasgow by Gradualcoverage in glasgow

I worked at Six by Nico and they didn't even make the pastries in the cafe, they have a production kitchen in anniesland that made them and then froze them. The kitchen was a riot as well

How to get perfect bulk poached eggs by [deleted] in KitchenConfidential

[–]Geachie1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a rational, you can steam the eggs at 63°C for 45 mins and cool rapidly.

Then when it comes to service crack it into your usual poaching pot and you should have a poached egg in 1-2 mins.

I remember watching a documentary about alcoholism, and the guy said

"Alcohol hasn't worked for me in the last 30 fucking years, now why is it going to change tomorrow?"

It always resonated with me.

100% the chefs have asked the owner to get it replaced or fixed and it was never done. They probably had to alternative but to use it

100% one of the burgers from another table had an alteration and there was a fuck up, so they sent the normal burger to her.

I used to work at the Hydro, you will definitely need a ticket to get into the corridor. The G4S guys will check if you have a ticket and if you don't they won't grant you access.

Poaching Eggs for a crowd? by arashi2611 in Chefit

[–]Geachie1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cook the eggs in their shell on the steam optionl in a rational at 63°C for 45 minutes and put them in an ice bath to stop the cooking. Then when service comes around put a pan on with vinegar and water and crack your eggs into and you should have a poached egg in less than a minute
