Timed Feedings

Feeding time at the aquarium. Someone thought it a delicious idea to arrange a sit-down dinner among the dank and musty odors of an aquarium. It seems to break that cardinal rule of omnivores: don’t remind the eater literally where their food comes from.

Serving sea bass would seem the obvious no-no nearby the once endangered Giant Sea Bass. The clamminess of your neighboring newt, the dim lights and sinister hum of pumps and unseen engines would recall the uncomfortable aspects of the watery world; dining in the bowels of the ship instead of at the captain’s table.

However, for a group of executives, there is a certain tunnel-vision aquired possibly, a kind of peripheral blindness that is part of their natures. Would one eat lamb at a petting zoo?

If you live for your art, then you probably have the infamous "day job". If so, you'll like "Diary of a Catering Waiter". It's my take on the catering industry, though anyone familiar with any service industry work, would appreciate the levels of weirdness that can happen among the martinis and gourmet food, tuxedoes and weddings, flowers and Napa wine. Always a surprising time to be had at any event. Stay tuned to find out about the hijinks involved with catering waiters, event planners, wedding crashers and all the lowly people waiting for the slice of catered food when the party ends.
