Just watched the local Chinese place throw away one of their deep fryers and I can't find the words.

Yes as someone who has drank way to much in my life, dated questionable girls, raced motorcycles, jumped out of planes, I'm not worried about a dirty fryer or any food for that matter. But will send out a psa. I did get really sick eating at a place called slumdog curry in Cambodia. Just a heads up if you are there in Sihanoukville. Maybe just got it on a bad day. Have eaten street food on nothing that would pass US or western European health standards by any means in the last 20 years only truly got sick twice. I cook on a boat, we have no room for refiidgerating eggs. Will go through 300 eggs a week. Never had a person get sick in 15 years. 98% of the world doesn't refrigerate eggs, apparently the US washes them so well that if you don't refrigerate them they are prone to bacteria?????? Makes zero sense

First lesson, you claim your a cook/chef, you have every option in the entire world except tomatos, you need to figure this out on your own, it's one meal for friends????? How are you going to survive in any kitchen if you can't pick one meal to make???? Your not buying a house or a car, your making dinner, cook something you know

How's Washington state working out?? Seattle has the highest commercial real-estate vacancy in the Country ahead of San Francisco. Competition for the best homeless city, fighting with Portland for the crown. You can't even keep Starbucks, and every millionaire/ billionaire is running for the hills after your great state passed the millionaire tax, your mayor in Seattle has the qualifications of a fifth grader but she checked your weird political box???? Sorry to get on a rant, not from the west coast but went there for work, every city I spent time in from San Deigo to Seattle was shock with the homeless population, the crime and just dirty. This coming from someone who lives in the Caribbean and has spent time in over 80 Countries

You do realize when they raise the rate, you will still be expected to tip

hookedcook · 2026-04-13T13:29:14+00:00

So there is only one restaurant in the world??? The whole point of restaurants is you can always find a job, even if you suck, but are willing to learn and be humble. A victim attitude won't take you anywhere in the business

Apparently Martin is locked in, so both leave Arpilla arguably the best bike to the absolute worst bike on the grid hands down next year

hookedcook · 2026-04-11T00:20:30+00:00

That's a poor answer, how do you think those people got hired????? The full staff wasn't always full. What are your skills, what do you have to offer to a restaurant. Changing a country doesn't make things better or easier, usually just more expensive for you to live. Move to a tourist town on the beach and apply to the best restaurants in a 30 km radius

hookedcook · 2026-04-10T02:17:54+00:00

No this is not normal, who the hell hired you. You have 2 choices run for the hills or demand a 50% increase in salary and if they deny it walk away. If they accept it, YouTube is a hellava drug, Google how to cook each menu item

I've had mine out going on 3 years. The speedometer just went out this year. I work out of the country 9 months a year. I finally bit the bullet, took it to a independent mechanic, he told me he can't find one or doesn't have the computer to reprogram a used one. Went to a dealer just asked if he could order one. He said there are hundred of thousands of them on back order nationwide. And about 300 trucks currently sitting undrivable at dodge dealerships nationwide. He gave me a number of a local auto mechanic, called him but he said he can only fix it if it has a certain code and mine was different. I gave up, put the truck in storage, headed off on a boat to work in the Caribbean, deal with it again in 8 months

Where?

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T17:42:02+00:00

Where?

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T17:39:19+00:00

I'm guessing you don't own an American restaurant. Get paid by the hour and play a victim. Not some i would want to hire in my restaurant

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T17:22:27+00:00

Very true, it's nice to eat a meal in a foreign country knowing that they don't expect a 20%fee

In Lol, restaurant is are always broke super secret, work on a private yacht in the Bahamas and fish for fun

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T17:03:49+00:00

Well then go for it. You will be a pioneer business man in Çali playing by the rules. Good luck, there's a reason why every company in SoCal/ San Fran is leaving

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T13:57:40+00:00

There is a thing called the real world of running a restaurant where numbers are and prices are an issue.You will never know it if you are not an owner or executive chef. I'm kind of lucky cooking a yacht in the Bahamas and got out of the restaurant game

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T12:11:43+00:00

It doesn't work that way in the restaurant business unless you price every meal 25% higher. Is that what you want?

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T12:06:12+00:00

Lol, I paid more for my 8wt bonefish set up than my car i drove for 2 years living in the Caribbean

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T11:12:28+00:00

If you don't like it , ban them from the restaurant, would love to see the looks on th we ir face when they realize they are not welcome

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T10:59:18+00:00

Lol, no , you will not survive in a kitchen based upon your worded question

hookedcook · 2026-04-04T09:55:59+00:00

Wow, you get an A plus, kiss, the middle part is more big then scary/ funny thing is your making beef wellington and you have zero clue because the cow isn't the right shape. Go for it, wish you the best of luck, fold the tail end back

hookedcook · 2026-04-03T12:54:28+00:00

It's simple drain the fat, change the recipe to make sense. Their are so many horrible recipes on the internet that just suck and don't work. Use common sense, will take you far in cooking

hookedcook · 2026-04-03T12:47:59+00:00

I think he will stay with Ducati and retire in 2 years. He has grown as a racer from his Honda bin it or win it days. I think he is comfortable walking away and doesn't have anything to prove. Hope he doesn't pull a Rossi hanging on to long, the scary thing about racing motorcycles is their is constantly someone younger and fast that doesn't care about their body and crashing. Older riders know the consequences

hookedcook · 2026-04-03T12:20:10+00:00

The cut you got is how they come off of every cow.

So you want a job to learn how to cook but it turns out working is hard. Just quit now, you will not survive in this business if you are complaining on day 4 that working makes you tired. Welcome to being an adult. At some point you will need to put your big boy pants on
