Aloha, Welcome to Chef Talk, is it Matt or Reidar?
Wow, changing careers can be rough, good for you.
As a Home Chef, we are asked not to post in the three Pro Forums
(that includes the Student Forums)
but to me, it sounds like you’re more of a Culinary Student, right?
But jump in, chat, have a good time.
For myself as a Home Expert, I’ve learned so much here.
Once you’ve gone over the FAQ and the Community Guidelines and you still have questions in regards to the site, PM a Mod or Admin person.
The Articles, Reviews and Galleries are great as is the Search Bar at the top of the page. There are so many topics that have gone around many times.
Mostly, enjoy
