Bueno! Hello to all fellow chefs

[ironchefin'06]

How's it going! I'm Mike, professional chef from the Chicagoland area. Just joined tonight and looking forward to some enlightening culinary conversation. As you might guess, I'm a huge fan of Ironchef, both Japanese and American. I've been in the business for 18 years now. Started when i was 14 busting suds and graduated from the school of Hard Knocks. Somehow, i attained my first sous chef position at age 16. I wasn't aware until now that there was a chat forum for chefs, but this is really cool. Talk to you guys soon.

Hey Mike,

Two days new here myself. Welcome to the site from a former (20yrs ago) Chicago suburbanite. Cool site we've stumbled on here.

Later.
