The Personal Professional Chef

The personal chef is a wonderful option for those of us that are overwhelmed with our busy lives. Just think of coming home to home cooked meal at the end of a long hard day at work. No more what am I going to make for dinner? Or stopping for fast food. The personal chef will do the grocery shopping, prepare the meals in your home and leave a set of instructions on how to heat the meal. Plus clean the kitchen when done. Sounds wonderful doesn't it?

My son"the chef" has decided to become a personal professional chef. He is an artist with food and creates a palette of flavors. I think he will do really well at it. I mean this is the kid that started watching cooking shows when he was 8 years old and would have the food network channel on 24 hours a day if he could. If he was having trouble with math I would put it in terms of cooking and he would understand right away. After graduating high school, he was home schooled, he went on to culinary school at the age of 17. Now after working at some finer establishments he has decided he wants to be his own boss and create a menu of his own.

The grocery store, I personally hate to grocery shop but he loves it. To watch him in the fresh produce or checking out the different cheeses is something to behold. If it is sample day watch out. He is the sauce king and loves all the exotic oils and spices. He is like an artist selecting oil paints for his next master piece. It is about the presentation as well as the food he serves. Give him a white plate and oh the art he can create.
