Errenterria, Spain May 21, 2009
After many emails back and forth (all in Spanish) I finally got the chance to stage at Mugaritz Restaurant. For those of you who don't know what stage is, it is basically a term used in the kitchen meaning to apprentice. I didn't get pay, but they were gracious enough to feed and give me a place to stay. Looking back, I couldn't believe it, somehow I am here in Spain. I work, chefs yell, (good things I didn't understand 100% Spanish), I cry, I get myself into heated arugments with my chef de partie, but I laugh and I learn to appreciate. It is the most wonderful experience; the people, the green hills, the pintxos, the beer, the culture, the respect for nature, the way of life. Mugaritz holds a special place in my heart, thank you for a delicious and most memorable time. Enjoy the pictures.
nice. now get back to work.
