Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted May 12, 2004 Applebees? Oh man, Spoon. Working at that place is for suckers. You should go back to Target or something. I was a dish bitch at one for one night before going the fuck off on some fatass grill cook that thought it was funny to make my job harder than it needed to be. I've worked in half a dozen kitchens, and either quit suddenly or gotten fired from them so quickly that the aggregate time spent in them is less than 2 or 3 months. I will never touch some asshole's food for as long as I live. I'd rather starve and get evicted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted May 13, 2004 Even if you don't like any of the mushrooms you've had before (I'm not a fan of regular mushrooms at all), I practically guarantee that you will like porchini mushrooms if you ever get a chance to have them. I had polenta with porchini mushroom sauce, and it was one of the most beautiful things I've ever tasted. Porchinis have a taste and texture to die for. I'm making beef bourguinon today for a bunch of people. I went to market this morning and they had some really good looking morels that I'm going to use later in the week. The basil looked good, so I'm going to make some basil and head on to the docks tomorrow morning and grab some Alaskan Spot Prawns from some pesto. I'd have to totally agree on the porcini point. The first time I had a porcini, a friend of mine picked some early in the morning and brought me one, all I did was a simple seasoning, coated it with some semolina flour, and sauteed it. I served it with a little tomato sauce, and it was so damn good. It almost fell apart in my mouth, it was so soft and flavorful. It's one of those things that the first time you have it, you remember it. The other group of mushrooms I'd also recommend is chantrelles (or hedgehogs) which pair really well with cream sauces and are sorta peppery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Much more hospitable than being stuck in the back of the house with the trolls and people deemed unsuitable for customer relations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
