Yeah, this blog comes with a warning, just like raw chicken should.

If you’re my mom, or if we’ve done business together (especially if you’ve hired me to cater your wedding!) maybe you should stop reading now and go visit another site.

This journal is where I let out the beast. Originally I started this blog when I was an apprentice so I could chronicle my training and career change. Now it’s going to be a repository for my culinary opinions (mostly) with the occasional random topic/posting thrown in for spice.

My original blog was very “pc” and neutral (just read some of the older posts, you’ll see). Not so any more. This blog will be:

• honest
• opinionated
• informative (hopefully)
• raw
• incendiary
• arrogant
• possibly offensive

I welcome any feedback, whether or not you agree with me, but I certainly won’t be apologizing for any of it. This will be my place where I let off some steam so I don’t have to be like this in real life. Because I’ve learned, among other things, no one likes to work with a dick, and it’s never good for business.

But hey, this is my own corner here. You’re welcome to drop in and give me your opinions about anything, but I’m NOT doing this blog to make any friends. And you know what, the first person who mentions that Anthony Bourdain has already done the “inflammatory-chef-as-writer” thing is going to get served some raw chicken.
