As someone who was recently kicked out of baohaus for being too drunk, I'm getting a kick.

guy with attitude opens restaurant and writes book. farkin right!

anybody have a link where I can fill out an application?

ROR

blatz514: So this guy, Eddie Huang , is famous?

No clue who he is even after RTFA.

I thought he might be the asian chef in Treme, but I was wrong.

So, basically, he'll only hire hip hop fans who don't get stoned at work but he's all about diversity. Right.

Let he who has never freebased off a Mountain Dew can cast the first stone!

Bourdain would have given his staff a proper crackpipe.

"In fact we'd prefer it if you didn't go to culinary school."

Damn, how am I going to pay off all these loans.

Hip-hop fans make great employees

Ah, so he's going for the "brain the size of potato" demographic. Got it.

That's funny. I actually got my last job by freebasing off a Mountain Dew can.

blatz514: So this guy, Eddie Huang , is famous?

No clue who he is even after RTFA.

He got really famous after he sang She Bangs on American Idol.  Then he put out a record ... sorta lost track of him after that, guess he's a chef now.

What... you guys DON'T freebase off of a can of Mountain Dew?

/if not, then I don't want to know what you're doing with your weekends

I base jumped off a can of Mountain Dew.

I hear it will give you a real surge.

Yeah, because ANYONE who likes hip hop has a potato-sized brain.

/likes hip-hop
//has a college education

Cocaine? Please. 7 year old girls use that

Freebasing the Mountain Dew? Now that is hardcore.

Elegy: FTFA: We've had some people smoke weed while on the line

I've worked in a lot of resturaunts and I've seen this on every kitchen line I've worked with - the cooks just blow it into the vent hood. The cooks that don't smoke on line smoke in the walk in cooler. The cooks that don't smoke in the walk in cooler have a little powwow out by the dumpster just before shift.

What I'm saying is, if you're eating out, there a good probability your cook was high when he cooked your meal.

This will not stand, man. We need to start drug testing immediately.

_{Will somebody think of the children?}

The cooks that don't smoke in the walk in cooler have a little powwow out by the dumpster just before shift.

Ah, the infamous "Safety Meeting". I've chaired many,many of those.

What's his beef with the Dew?

Salmon: ROR

You're going to hell.
/I'll be down shortly.

vernonFL: That could be any restaurant in any major city.

No, it couldn't.

GWSuperfan: vernonFL: That could be any restaurant in any major city.

Yep. Restaurant Kitchens run on cocaine.

And that is why I never worked in food service. Probably saved my life.

Yeeeeeeeech!  That's just....awful.

/freebases off a can of crab juice

Rembrant_Q_Einstein: Let he who has never freebased off a Mountain Dew can cast the first stone!

*slowly puts down his stone*

...people always ruining my fun.

Never heard of Baohaus before this. Looks... interesting.

Will have to check it out the next time I'm in New York.

FuryOfFirestorm: Cocaine? Please. 7 year old girls use that

Freebasing the Mountain Dew? Now that is hardcore.

Once back in high school when I worked in a movie theater, we got really bored while waiting in between films so we decided it would be a great idea to start taking shots of pure Mountain Dew syrup.

Yeah, my high school friends and I weren't very smart.

try fect taa daa: guy with attitude opens restaurant and writes book. farkin right!

Call me back when the place is closed down due to roach infestation.

Mom?!

ooooo new html do hickies

FTA:  "Once we got rid of all the culinary school kids and the lifelong line cooks, it's been a lot better. Those guys come, and they're very judgmental, very entitled. Half my cooks are from Red Lobster. And you know what? They listen. And they do what I tell them to do, when I tell them to do it."

Translation:  "I don't know how to put together a competent staff that I can trust to know what they're doing, so instead I prefer "yes men" I can push around, knowing they lack the knowledge or experience to push back.

Contents Under Pressure: So, basically, he'll only hire hip hop fans who don't get stoned at work but he's all about diversity. Right.

But if you are even the biggest hip hop fan and show up for an interview dressed up, he won't hire you because you dressed up.

Yea. I'm hoping that someday I might need to hire a person to take 5 minutes to chop the perfect onion at 7pm on Friday night. Until then the culinary students can go work in a hotel. It's what they're trained for

It's that guy??!!  Wasn't he slightly downsy?

It's sad that I know this...but no. That guy was named William Hung.

Elegy


If he/she was any farking good, they did. I did the vent hood, I did the walk-in, I did the laundry shed. Then the owner got me high and said," just sit on the porch so no one can see you..". OK, cool.

That's no "powwow". That's called a "safety meeting."

Eddie Huang is farking great.  He has a show on the cooking channel, he cracks me up.  His food looks seriously good too.

Gotta do the Dew!
