1st Day

So this morning I woke up after 12 hours of much needed sleep!!!! =)
my head is still a little ehhh...but I hope I can nail down the time change in a few days!
I went to the restaurant this morning, said Hi to Jane and sat down for breakfast...sadly it's just a little bit better than the Village Grill or 42nd Street Bagel!!
Had some awesome coffee and probably the best orange juice I've ever tasted!! =)
She asked if I wanted the traditional english breakfast and of course I said yes! So glad I did!
She brought out a perfect plate of scrambled eggs (from the ducks) the most delicious bacon on the earth (from the pigs on the farm) a sausage (also from the pigs) sauteed mushrooms...tomato..and black pudding!! Oh and the signature English Brown sauce...kinda like bbq but no smokey or sweetness...but more tangy...freakin delicious!!! Also wheat bread that is made fresh daily..and let me tell you, I have never eaten toast dry before, but i downed 2 pieces before the homemade marmalade and jams were brought out! =)
After I finished probably the best breakfast that I have ever eaten, I had a nice talk with Chef John Rudden (executive chef/ owner).
He asked me how everything was and told him exactly what I just said. We had a nice talk about food and how everything is made here and how he keeps everything simple, modern, and delicious!
He is such an awesome dude and really down to earth, and you can tell that he loves food!!!
I start tomorrow in the kitchen, and he said he's excited for me and that we are just gonna have fun for the next 3.5 months! I'm so down!!! =)
