Take a Chef-Leave a Chef
Three Things:
Me
My ideas
God.
I want to thank me.
In the spirit of Killa Mike sweeping the Grammy’s I would like to shine a light on the things that I have been doing lately. In my career as a cook. Landing an interview in the exact place and time that I said I would. Being steadfast and steady in my belief in myself.
I signed up for a service called TakeAChef a few weeks ago, and the request for service came flowing in and it seemed to good to be true. With some of the requests for service reaching a $7000 pay out for one month of meal prep I thought that I might be on the horizon of my retirement. Unfortunately, although you don’t pay for leads like Thumbtack, there is no is no quality control, and the market at Take A Chef is over saturated. Getting out bid by what I can only assume is untested chefs afraid to step into real kitchen.
I work very hard, and it sometimes seems that I am one of the few who still cares about the craft of cooking. It sometimes seems like a burden on others when sometimes I’m just looking for a friend to join in with me and take over the globe. That’s why I’m thankful for Will and the work we’ve been doing with the pop up. I’m so glad we started this project and I’m eager to see it come into fruition. I will tell you more about it when we finish the menu this weekend. And have been documenting the journey as well and will be sharing pictures and videos from now on from our findings, research, and development.
There’s always a great shedding away before great change. Life is cyclical, and I am just happy that I’m ready this time around. I finally have my barrings. And I can feel my hands at the wheel. I feel powerful, and when I’m in this mode I feel that no one can stop me. And no one can. As long as I can create like I create. As long as I can paint on that beautiful porcelain canvas again, and again I’m happy, and that’s all that matters.
I dream to be full time private chef, and that’s exactly what I’m going to be.
