Back in the kitchen after 2 1/2 months of unemployment

After Tabla closed in late December of 2010, I took some time off for myself.  I trailed around in different restaurants and finally decided to take a job offer from Oceana as a Fish Roast line cook.  It was my first day last Monday (3/14) and I forgot how exciting it was.  Oceana is an American restaurant that specializes in seafood.  Here's a picture of the lobster tank in front of the open kitchen.  A new chapter begins and I can only grow from this experience.

If anyone is really interested about how a professional kitchen runs, I recommend that you read Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain.  It'll really open your eyes.
