I'm Going To Be A Chef!

I went to the St. David's Hotel & Spa at the Cardiff Bay today to apply for a Chef's position!

Its just too good to be true. The timetabling, workload is rather perfect, pay's quite good, its a 5* hotel and I get free training... Plus, they don't really mind that I don't have any relevant experience at all!

I think the position that I may get, provided I survive my trial on Saturday (6am - 3pm), would be the Breakfast Chef position - preparing Breakfast for all the patrons and hotel guests!

The working hours are odd, 6am - 3pm but at least its doing something I love - cooking. And I reckon that I'd learn a lot from the experience. One more step towards opening my own restaurant!

I'm horribly excited about this. In fact, so excited that I finally made the Strawberry Semi-Freddo tonight. It looks and tastes HEAVENLY. I kid you not. A picture will follow shortly...

Okay. That's the upside of today, the downside is that we didn't get through the moot, though we were supposedly so impressive that we may be put in as the lucky loser or something like that.

I don't know... Either way, its quite cool. But I think I really proved to myself this past 30 hours that I am really good at doing what I do, provided I have the right frame of mind, and also provided that there is such an urgency that its do or die. Long live the spirit of Last Minute Work.

Fuck. I can't believe that I may soon be a Chef in a 5* Hotel!!
