To see a kitchen with 0 anger and 0 shouting and 100% teamwork really makes me wish I was in a different kitchen. You've got this kitchen down to perfection really great job 👏

[floydframpton]

You seem to have so much respect for everyone you work with, so calm and just handing out little pieces of constructive feedback. This is what a head chef and leader should be.

[randysavage]

I've worked in MANY kitchens in my 15 years experience. 8 minutes in and I can tell you this Chef has a level of professionalism that MANY claim but few possess.
He speaks to his people with respect and authority.
He utilizes his own chain of command to institute changes before going to oversee that change.
I'd love to work in this kitchen.
Iron sharpens Iron!

[Cold_]

It’s refreshing to see a head chef giving his chefs advice on how to be more efficient during service, no shouting, no hard critiques or anything, love to see it!

[joshuagayouauthor]

As the head chef, I imagine it must feel incredibly fulfilling to have your kitchen running like this. Outstanding crew.

[JonSudano]

This takes me back to my late teens/early 20s! Some of the best years and the hardest work I've ever done!

[jeroend]

Once again this is showing me that working as a head chef is more like being the conductor of an orchestra or working in logistics than it is to „just“ be a chef. The amount of concentration that is needed to accurately have every process run at the right time, in the right order and with the right parts of the mechanism moving is outstanding. And the team seems to give opportunities to learn, which I am sure especially the younger members of the team will be able to cherish. Hats off to such a seemingly smooth service!

The coordination, efficiency of movement, constant and complete awareness, attention to detail...this is just phenomenal. I really do enjoy watching chefs in action.

[devinstef]

The money they must have spent on pots and pans to keep up with those rushes is just insane. He burned through my entire pan set in the first 30 seconds and each one was covered in that food that doesn’t rinse off easily. Shout out to the dish washers in that establishment. props to the chef and cook staff as well, they did amazing and deserve their props.

[korylp]

If this was an 8 hour live stream I would watch it non stop. Something so fascinating about watching a well oil machined run so smoothly.
It also makes me appreciate my food a lot more knowing it’s had the tick of approval and taste of approval 😂

[qipynlo]

I used to bus and dishwash for our city's fancy restaurant. Let me tell you... Nothing is more special than being a disher, and a "gopher" for whatever someone needed, than being one that the chef offers a hand to. Owner was less strict than our chef, but during peaks of the day, he'd stop preparing and come chat with you while plates sat. He'll give you words of encouragement, if there's plates backed up, he'll drop the apron and roll his sleeves up. All cooking is stopped until dishes are caught up.

Seeing this vantage point offers me a glimpse into what he did between helping everyone. Absolutely amazing. Thanks for this!

Sincerely - the washers!

[clementleow]

He’s so calm and gentle with his cooks and servers i love it. Even helping them keep their stations cleaned up when they are a little overwhelmed.

[displacedhippie]

The plating. The control. The constant tasting to the point you don't need to eat an actual meal ever. The maintenance and cleaning of your line's stations. Brilliant. Love this content, please keep it coming Chef!

[davidstufflebean]

The first sign of a great chef... he recognizes the dishwashers, the backbone of the kitchen!

[immfhrf]

This chef knows everything going on at once and coaches everyone so nicely!! Much respect

[Majerly_Annoyed]

I'm simply in awe!!! Complete precision and professionalism while still finding time to teach and even fix a sauce that has gone astray. Kudos!

[wilsonpearl]

I NEED MOREE!! It's so hard to find good footage of people working in a Kitchen. Love watching this style of video, and it always gets me hyped up for my next busy Saturday on the line.

[olliec]

The one thing I love about this is the politeness. At the restaurant I worked at, the one thing that annoyed me more than anything is the how rare it was to hear a thanks or thank you, and everyone was unbearably rude. Everything about this place is amazing

[valeyrossie]

And again watching you work in such harmony is so satisfying, ive mentioned before that i cancer and have 12 months to live but im ok with it and im not saying for sympathy, only telling you this as your videos make my days bearable, the way you all work is majestic and from how you come across you must be an amazing boss and person, hopefully within the next 12 months i will be able to travel down and sample your food, you guys are all amazing and wish you all the luck in the world.
