Thankyou for visiting the site and taking the time to comment. Miles Ronald,

The idea behind these posts is to give an idea of what it is really like in hotel and restaurant kitchens without the gloss of ghost writers and publishers. Miles Cid,

Thank you for your wonderful insight stories. I hope that the tips left in the restaurants filter also through to kitchen staff. They seem to need all the encouragement that they can get. Miles,

I may re-think my career in the kitchen! Mind you as a blameless 'Frother' and a gammon and egg expert, it could be just the break I need... my requirements are as follows:- Hours of work: mid afternoonish, I'm not at my best in the mornings, oh and possibly the odd hour on Saturday. Wages: quite high I suspect and enough to keep me in exclusive cosmetics and the latest trend in linen baggy kitchen trousers 'like what they wear on the telly!' Air conditioning and hair conditioning: yes When things get 'quiet' I'll double up on the Snipe preparation section. Now you can't say fairer than that, mull it over and we'll talk pensions :) Cid p.s. a great article Miles and very informative, I'd never been sure of the hierarchy and all the french terms. Miles,
