An idea for a restaurant

[TheUndeadPhoenix]

So one day I'm going to be a chef and own my own restaurant. I want to be able to feed people out of it, secretly for free. Only for good friends and homeless people. Its gonna be a really high end place, too. I'm going to college right now for culinary, for my AAS. I'm gonna go for my bachelors degree after I graduate from this program. I want to be in 1 of 3 places: NYC, Las Vegas or LA. I wanna get my start in NYC, but that's not necessarily gonna be where I start. Vegas would be easy to set that up in cuz you'd get such a high turnover. But LA seems to be where everybody goes. I wanna set up in all 3 cities, but where should I start first? And its gonna be at least 5 to 7 years til I open my own place, but I still wanna get stuff ready, at least in my head.

oh the things you think about... haha
i'd say set up in new york, if you're good enough you'll get noticed. A cousin of mine went out to new york to be a chef and he ended up on some cooking competition show for the food network (chopped i believe?) and hes now an executive chef or whatever at some classy restaurant.

Enchiladas and stuffed mushrooms. You'll be my best friend.

Yeah, I think of crazy shit. What's your cousin's name? I might have hear of him. And NYC is one of the best places to be a chef, which is why I wanna start there. If I can make it there, I can make it anywhere.

Those are the last three cities I would ever want to ground myself in..but to each his own. What kind of food? Will you have milkshakes?

I can understand Vegas, but NYC and LA? Its gonna be rich people food lol. And we'll have ice cream, so milkshakes won't be that far behind. When I say rich people food, I mean steaks, lobster, bisque, etc.

Enchiladas and stuffed mushrooms. You'll be my best friend.

Stuffed mushrooms, yes. Enchiladas, idk. But they'll be HUGE fuckers, portabella mushrooms
