RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have officially "retired" from the commercial restaurant business, after working as a manager in casual dining. The lack of professionalism, disrespect and unsanitary conditions have taken there toll. I want to continue catering for friends, family and business acquantiances and hopefully open my own small diner in the near future.!
