/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Dishwasher at a steakhouse that used to be a Mexican restaurant.

I was a straightforward job, worked it 3~4 days after my last year in high school from like 4-10

There were two really cool cooks, a tall skinny pot smoker that unironically liked the ICP and a fat funny guy that was the only dude to do any legit work. The owner was a fat piece of shit who looked like a humanization of Garfield the cat, and the head chef was a tiny fucking prick about 5'5 that thought he was hot shit.

i rotated with about 2 other highschool football bros who were hosts. 2 of the waitresses there were highschool cheerleaders with big tits and they would always brag and gloat about tips and be general cunts. If the boss was in a bad mood, I'd have to clean the fryers or overhead smoke racks or the grill from the wing smoker they had. Before I arrived the chubby cool chef said the entire basement was completely stashed with rotten food and bags of month old rancid potatoes and onions, roaches and shit were everywhere. Every fucking night I'd have to close down the kitchen: which meant washing the floor mats, cleaning a 12 ft long cutting board, sweeping and mopping the kitchen etc. and sometimes we'd get that customer that shows up at 9:55pm to keep us at that shitty place for another 30 minutes. Cold glass salad plates would shatter in in the hot dishing water. ALL of the waitresses, from the two 18 year old tarts to the 40 year old 'where is my life going' type, were fucking entitled cunts holy shit. Only good part about it was being able to get a solid burger and an Arnold Palmer out of the night's work, and sometimes the employees would buy beer for you.

American meat pies are basically 'pot pies' usually filled with chicken or turkey, sometimes beef, and carrots, peas, celery, onions. They are kind of synonymous with really low-income households, because here in 'Merrica the supermarkets stock them in mass, for like .60c~$1.00

Thus, meat pies, for the most part are very tiny portioned, low quality, and equated to rednecks, abusive fathers, struggling families etc. The only kind of savory pie I've had that was decent was a quiche, which is basically a pie crust filled with eggs, potatoes, veggies, and of course cheese, being american. My mom used to make those sometimes and they were quite good, especially with chillis and peppers, a sort of southwest influence.

Pic related: they are aforementioned shitty pot-pies.
