Do you believe that opening a restaurant is a smart idea in the long run? I have no interest in it, but I do watch a lot of those Kitchen Nightmare type shows and they really make it seem like one of the most stressful jobs is to be a restaurant owner. Fake or not just curious if it really is actually Hell on Earth.

I used to be a line cook too. What kind of cuisine do you cook at your job? And what kind of cuisine do you enjoy cooking at home?

If it's hell on earth you have a flawed business model.
Restaurants are great money if you know what you're doing. There's a lot of points of failure too. I say you should work as a cook, then a chef, then eventually you can own your own place

I work in an Irish pub.

A general rule is that you cant just hire someone to do all the work. If they're that talented they own their own place already
