Thanks, Snowy. I actually saw that and figured it was a different guy. Either way, no right to barge into a kitchen. Maybe if he was a well-known food critic, but a finantial columnist? No.

Sure its stressful, but I have found that the first question one should ask when stressed out is.... Is anyone trying to kill me? is anyone shooting at me at the moment??? if the answer is no, then CHILL THE FUCK OUT... Years working section 8 housing make for a special kind of calm, that others could learn from....... And as to his precious kitchen being a sacred space, fuck that too.... A good cook is all well and good, but that man has far too much pretension in him to be allowed to continue.....

I couldn't disagree with you more. There is WAY more to being a chef than just being a cook. Hey, I like to fart around in the kitchen, and I can host a nice dinner party. But I know I'd have A LOT to learn if I ever wanted to work an actual dinner service in a restaraunt kitchen. Are some chefs assholes? Of course they are. But assholes go into all sorts of jobs, not just the restaraunt biz. Even if you think all chefs are assholes, always remember that they cook your food. I mean, you don't want a dude's pubic hair on your burger, do you?
And a server grabbing the wrong order absolutely can cause someone to die. Ever heard of food allergies or anaphylactic shock? Food is seroius business.
