Chef Ramon Freixa


So....work is turning out to be better than I'd ever hoped for. I'm learning alot, everyone is really cool and nice, I get to eat REAL Spanish food and hang out with them. I thought I'd just put a website that has a bio on the Chef if anyone was interested. I don't think its very recently written, but its kind of neat. This is a pic off their website also. I'm pretty stoked, I passed off on 2 dishes that I can make from start to finish without having to get them checked before they go to the dining room. Since I've only been there 4 days, and have communication issues, I was pretty proud of myself. I'm off today and tomorrow so we are going to see a movie tonight. My birthday was good, I worked, but on my break (siesta from 4-8) we hung out with Eva and Amanda at Starbucks. It was nice. Anyway, its going great so far, hopefully it stays that way. But at least the scary first few days are over with. They have a cryo-vac machine, so whenever we aren't busy I get to go play with it. I try to act like its not fun....but I think they see through it. They were surprised that I'd never used one before, but at work in the states we just get all of our meat already cut and packaged pretty much so don't need one. Ok, I'll stop rambling now.
