open my own restaurant

and become hugely successful and famous like gordon ramsay

I’ve always wanted to own a diner.

It’s been a dream of mine, for quite sometime, to open my own gourmet restaurant. I know it sounds kinda weird, but it’s just the atmosphere of a busy kitchen that makes me feel good! I wanna be a great chef whose cooking will be known throughout the world. It’s the satisfaction of creating a work of art that someone is going to appreciate and knowing that I’ve made it with my own two hands that gets me going!

will do it

Someday… I’m still pretty young, but I do have some ideas on menu…

i want to open my own restaurant one day! a family one! :)

On the one hand, you have 24-hour places of cheap and extensive but not very good breakfast, like IHOP. On the other hand, you have places with short hours but excellent breakfast, like La Note. Someday I will combine the two and allow the world to get crepes, churros, and steel-cut oatmeal at 2 a.m.

i know it’s a damn long way until i can accomplish it and i understand how much work I’m going to have to put into Culinary school and working hard for a long time but i see it this way; if i want to be successful in any area i would have to put all my heart and soul into it. There is only certain things that have ever made me happy enough to want to give everything i have, one is soccer which will never leave my life, and the other is cooking, even though its something that i havent let myself take seriously because i was blinded by the tons of pressure put on me by being unprepared for life to hit me so fast. I forgot that I was allowed to choose what i wanted to be. I just needed to stop and think for myself for a damn second.

i finally opened up my sammich shop and it was totally worth it!!
not for the faint of heart though. Long hours and an endless supply of worries, stress and frustration.
every day when i get to work and night when i leave though, i look at Banjo’s Sammich co. and smile as big as i can. win or lose, it is all ours and we are responsible. amen!

it’s just on hold. it’s not a tangible goal right now
