Mondays are meeting days for me. I meet with purveyors and farmers and fellow chefs, I meet with staff and management staff and we discuss things that generally cause more work for one and sometimes all of us. At some point in nearly every single one of these meetings I find myself thinking “how can I let them know that I have done exactly what I’m telling them not to do?” Lately, I feel like I’m stuck in this weird place between making the mistakes and the finding the supposed wisdom that comes from making such mistakes. I never seem to have the complete answers just a seemingly endless stream of stories about failures and perhaps an insight or two. Mostly the meetings consist of wisecracks and subject changes.
