Intro


Check please! is a blog about my past and present experiences working in the restaurant industry. This weekly blog will feature stories from my perspective working in restaurants and also being a guest in them. I will post weekly pieces of my journey from start to finish over the next few weeks. This journey will be exciting and sad, boring and overwhelming, gross, but above all, delicious. I’ve found over the past few years that working in the restaurant industry, especially in NYC gives you a tough skin, fat wallet, and no social life but the appeal on both ends as a worker and a guest just keeps people wanting more and more. The restaurant industry is one of the toughest places to work, crazy chefs, all spanish-speaking kitchen staff, and servers striving to be stars can be found in all restaurants no matter how big or small. But whether the meal was horrible or great it all comes down to that one last thing, check please!

  1. I am interested to know more about your experience in the restaurant business. Living in New York I know how challenging it can be because of the amount of people that eat out. There can be many stories to tell and I am interested in reading them. Nice work.

  2. I'd like to hear the gross details. I've always wondered what happens between the time I order and the time when I get the order. Plus, it'd be great to know a good place to eat.

  3. I used to be a waitress and some days it was sad to see the "tip" that a table had left for me. This is a great blog and can't wait for your weekly entry!
