I've been in a kitchen since i was eight. Worked in food service since my teens

I've done everything from washing dishes, busing tables, cold prep, line cook, sous chef, assistant, executive chef, catering, upscale grocery (culinary training, specialty cheese, artisan baking), food production for resale. Should I go on?

Do you want my resume?

Can pizza or burgers be quality? They absolutely can. When you say quality

DJROSS

4/14/22 8:55pm

Sure. But a Neapolitan pizza place isn’t remotely the same as a Papa Johns.
