    Takes a lot of guts to leave behind something you committed to in order move towards a new adventure. Your staff dinner looked delicious. Best of luck to you, Ryan.

    Good on you for making the change. I made a similar choice last year being a military chef at 30, decided to try something completely new and become a Data Analyst. A few weeks ago I got an apprenticeship at a large company, anything is possible but only you can make that happen.

    Hey from Germany!!! I know it was hard work but to watch you while cooking like that is indeed a very calming experience. I‘m gay (too) and always love your vlogs together. Wish you all the best for your future!!!! Please stay authentic like you are. Looking forward to learn more about the art of cooking from you. I‘m coffee addicted just as you and absolutely love to cook for my loved ones too. So i‘m sure there are tons of things that you can teach us in the future.
    Thanks a lot for this nightly Upload! Now i‘m going to sleep… Regards over the ocean!

    You look so natural and confident in this environment. And, in a way I can see how it can be a grind from prep to execution. My parents owned a restaurant and I helped them once when I went back home to visit them. I was there at 5a with my dad and I would start prepping (for hours) helping the dishwashers and pitching so the staff could take breaks. At the end of the day (11p) I was beat to
    sh-t. My father and mother did this 6 days a week. On Sunday, when the restaurant was closed, they would stock up for the restaurant. It was their life together. Not mine. 😬 It’s a hard life. I hope you find something new and as rewarding and satisfying as your last career. Good luck 👍🙏😎
