I'm a Chef now after being in the Bar business for over 30 yrs. I always loved cooking for my family and friends and I got my cooking chops at the Hilton hotel in Odessa,TX about 23 yrs ago when I volunteered to help out in the kitchen after our staff walked out on a strike! In one week I was offered a position to be his apprentice and recited my Certificate in 11 months! I went on to do catering for the next 18 yrs!
