Rob is a Sous Chef at Fenouil. He’s made Beef Bourguignon so many times that as you can se here, he could do it with his eyes closed. I’ve seen Rob prepare many different dishes, and have learned a lot from watching him work. Working in a kitchen you meet a lot of strange people with sick senses of humor, and Rob is among the finest examples, if not the textbook definition of that “fringe element.” He once used a squeeze bottle full of water to “pee” on my foot in the mens room. His sense of humor is so perverse, one could imagine being damned to hell for being in the same room when he tells a joke. It’s proximity damnation. My frequent attempts to shock or disturb this man have always ended in ME being shocked and disturbed by his comeback. Understanding all this and looking at this picture I have to wonder: What is he thinking?
That guy must be a fucked up dick!
Actually, I’ve learned alot from him, especially how do be a better fucked up dick, which is a huge ambition of mine. The only difference between an asshole and a dick is that an asshole enjoys being a dick!! The banter that Rob and I share is fun and unique, and I hope he wasn’t offended by my post. It was meant as a tribute to a great chef.
