There's one of the many reasons why I love to cook for people. So what if you have to work long hours, burn yourself or cut a finger. Who cares if your back hurts from standing all day. What really pays off for me is the instant feedback. Today we had the chance to compete in a cookoff. I chose to make the veggie burger. It got such high praise. I was shocked how many people liked it. But, this is why I cook. You can find out right away what worked and what didn't. James Cameron had to wait 12 years to control the world with Avatar. I can't wait that long.
Everyone has to eat at least twice a day. Hopefully three times a day. That's where I come in. I put together great tasting food in a very busy Omaha restaurant. So many times I have guests come to the window and tell us that we made great food. Whenever there is an issue, I find out right away. I am going to try and put together the recipe for the veggie burger. I hope anyone who gets a chance to make it. . .does. It's wonderful and Chef O'Donnell said he'd put it on a menu right away and doesn't say that very often. It's a moneymaker.

Your burger got high praise because it really rocked. Just listening to the judges' comments was a hoot since it became quickly evident what effect that burger was going to have on the outcome of the contest . . .
ReplyDeleteI looked at my sausage patty I had for breakfast this morning and thought how your burger would be a nice (and healthier) change.
