I thought u were philipino ? (seriously)

ya ya but laid in philippines doesnt have as nice a ring ;)

ai-ya !

I still Know, I was a kitchenhand for a couple of years in various fast-food type places, then I got the same job in an al dente kinda restaurant, I started to get called the cook...and after some time, I was more or less in charge of the kitchen. We had a chef, and I was more or less the go-between...learned a lot from the guy, and worked there for a total of around 2 and a half years as I recall.
But that was just what got me "into" cooking/food preparation, even since then I've been self-teaching, experimenting with all kinds of stuff, trying to get better as I go.
Yeah, I get mistaken for a chef a lot among the circles in which I hang, but nope....I'm just a cook.
The lowenbrau rocks huh?? Such a weird building, the foods just exemplorary, and the beer...I can't remember what it was called, but I had a certain "after dinner" spirit there that was 60%+ alcohol, very nice mint flavoured shots...

Yeah Gren, I_s_k we're probably someplace near eachother, we're both in Sydney...both been to the same place...wombats are cool, but there's not many in the city or anything...they can however be domesticated, but aren't often.

My dad got a degree in Food Service Management when i was 18. hehad been cooking liek crazy for years by then, and when i was in 11th grade, ui had to cook for myself, since i was usually home for 5 hours by myself after school every night.

Eventually i started experimenting with my own stuff, and when i moved oyut of my parents, went psycho cooking for myself constantly. i love trying out new things, and have successfully conquered some very challenging recipes, including cheesecake (from scratch, the old fashioned way), and croissants.

Not that anyone asked. :D

Vodstok is trying to take over all of the forums !

Stop him, he's gone mad !!

Post people ! Post !

Damn! You're on to me.......

And thats right POST GODAMNIT. ITS FRIDAY AND IM FUCKING BORED!

Fridays are always a little busy for me at work. Thats why I'm slow to post today.

Ummm....yeah I have seen a wombat, just not in the wild - seen them in zoo's. More likely to see kangaroos roaming around the bush. They're everywhere!

Koala's are my favourite though. They rock!

And yeah I Cheeba and I must live pretty close. As he mentioned, we have both been to the lowenbrau... and it is a weird building from what I recall. I remember that the toilets were on the outside of the building... :confused:

You like kangaroos, ISK?? I like 'em to EAT, but that's pretty much it, silly animals. Have you tried one?
I hate koalas too, but I have a soft dpot for wonbats for some reason...I remember the one on ACP, from way back when I was a kid, I met it once.:D twas like some kinda giant guineapig/rat hybrid chubby lil' guy.

I remember the lowenbrau is in one of Sydneys first buildings, the area it's in is basically the oldest part of the city now. The ceiling inside is just the original wooden structures holding all the rocks up, with some lamps hanging from them...looks very rustic, but kinda cool, it's not a very bright place inside, but that's what I liked about it...as for the toilets, I think by the time I needed to take a piss, I'd sunk about a stein and a half so I probably relied on those I passed by to get to and from my table, I don't have much recollection..good ale..
I'm in hornsby man, urself?
I'm gonna hit the lowenbrau for my birthday next year, maybe u could rock up yknow? aaanyways
