pwdrdayz Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 They look brand new Have had most of them for 4+ years and they get used almost daily. Probably the wrong place to be saying this but I'm probably more protective of them than I am of my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGT For ME Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Man I need to make some big bucks so I can hire a professional chef like leephan79. I wonder how much he charges per meal/for his services. Gourmet food at home, very nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueWhiteBoy Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Per meal is too expensive, you have to nail him down for his monthly rate, much cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leephan79 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 My pricing all depends on the meal. I sit down and plan with my customers first and we come up with budgets. I only do special occasions and dinner parties of 50 people max. I calculate per person and hourly rate from $25-$75 an hour, depending on the type of food (I do French, American steakhouse and Asian). I have to make sauces and what not the night before. Wake up early in the morning to go shop at the farmers market to get the freshest ingredients. Load up my car with plates, cookware, etc. Make sure you and your guest gets appetizers, entry and dessert out on time. Give everyone a good showcase and educate a little on food. After the guest are gone.. clean up your whole kitchen afterwards, pack everything back up in the car. Unpack at home and wash all the dishes. It can take over well over 12+ hours. Repeat the next day or every other day. It is very hard work.... and I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGT For ME Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Yeah sounds like a lot of work, but I'm sure its more fun than sitting at a desk all day, and you probably make a plate for yourself as well, good food on the job, nice.

leephan79 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 You guys see this knife in my hand? It is a Shun sushi knife ($150). 32 layers of folded steel. Extremely sharp, this is your modern knife. See the knives behind it? Those are Japanese single edge yanagi blades... twice as sharp and requires skilled hands on the whetstone. $600 each. http://i416.photobucket.com/albums/pp243/Leephan79/IMG_4509.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That texture is awesome. I love my shun 10' chef's knife, took 2 months to get it after ordered but worth it. I am always extra carefull and sure do respect the blade when using it, pretty much the sharpest knives out of the box. props for amazing dishes, I bow to you sir!
