A few months ago, I submitted an application to Stephan Pyles' new restaurant, called Stephan Pyles. He's one of the few nationally (perhaps even internationally) recognized chefs in Dallas. He had a cooking show on PBS long before the Food Network, and is known by foodie and non-foodie alike.
To make a long story short, I took a job with Stephan at the beginning of February and couldn't be happier. I work at the Tapas and Ceviche bar. My cooking surface is a cranky wood burning oven, and I cook in front of people, interact with them even.
Last week, I even got a tip. Not a "wear galoshes in the rain" tip but a guy palmed me a bill. Very nice.
Congrats, dahhhhling.
I'm glad you got the new gig. Maybe we can get by there to eat in a year or two when the hoopla dies down.
BTW, it's officially spring now, so I'm going to hold you to that barbecue invitation. I'll bring the beef ribs and some black bean and corn salad.
