Life as A Private Chef in Las Vegas

[@JoshBalch-oy9us]

Hey Man, I was a cook for the first 11 years of my young adult life. Dropped out of high school my senior year an attend CIA in Hyde Park, NY. Worked my way around Miami and eventually ended up leaving the trade. Every time I’m missing the “life” i turn on one of your videos and they always fill that void. I can only imagine the time it takes to do what you do and do the vlogs! Props to you chef, very underrated!

[@CulinaryMisfits]

Wow! Thank you so much for your kind words. I truly wish you can find something that feels that void. Making these videos is something I actually enjoy more than cooking itself so it's a win-win for me. People like you are what make me love what I do even more. I'm truly grateful to be able to do this for you and everyone else.

[@carolineramage7480]

OMG! Livin' the dream with a personal chef!

[@RogerPittman]

30 lbs? That is seriously impressive. You look great, Eric 👍

[@tomkim1017]

That crispy rice looks amazing... Great idea! Of course they want you to be quiet and cook at home but they have screaming kids in the background... LOL

[@carolineramage7480]

Maybe the kids weren't going to be there. So they really wanted some quiet.

[@MarySklodowski]

They are lucky to have you, two great healthy meals❤

[@mccartney6404]

I have just become obsessed with watching your videos. Love them. Thanks!

[@codyhardman8610]

Keep em coming I'll watch them All. Love it

[@amyspeers8012]

Hello from SW France. I was a school nurse in a very busy high school when I lived in the US. I started wearing scrubs as I hated trying to get body fluids out of my nice clothes. They way I was treated after wearing scrubs was noticeable. Also-love seeing what you make!

[@MH_6160]

Chef coat looks very professional.

[@sherriewoods8015]

Enjoyed your video! Thanks for letting us listen to the natural sounds with no music other than what was playing in the background.

[@brandoncarpenter9681]

Thanks for the 14 min video, I love the long videos.

[@yvonnebirch6026]

Congratulations chef ! You look great ❤ I like your channel and your sense of humor.❤

[@CulinaryMisfits]

Thanks and welcome

[@SaintsandSushi]

it made me augh that they wanted you to be quiet but let the kids scream their lungs out...because that makes sense. I love watching you make all those yummy seafood recipes and I use them as inspiration for the week's menu.

[@carolineramage7480]

Maybe the kids weren't going to be there? So they really wanted some quiet.

[@SaintsandSushi]

@@carolineramage7480 no is a cultural thing. I heard the accent and know how people from my culture act around hired help vs their kids. Is them bossing around by making arbitrary rules for what they consider "the help".

[@carolineramage7480]

@@SaintsandSushi what was the accent? I didn’t pick it up. SA? They're the employer, they can call the shots. It's the kids home, they're allowed to make noise. Different if the kids were playing in the kitchen, which I'm sure doesn't happen. The chef said he didn’t mind cooking at his place. Or maybe that was for the camera? Seemed genuine. The chef also said how quiet the house was without the kids around, but not really quiet in a good way. They let him do his KZbin in their house, which is very generous. The chef also gets to use quality ingredients in a beautiful kitchen with no full restaurant pressure.

[@SaintsandSushi]

@@carolineramage7480 "Calling shots", making irrelevant and arbitrary rules is not a part of employee and employer agreement. That is a personal choice to be toxic and inappropriate with hired staff to assert dominance. He was hired to cook which he does that's the expectation of their agreement. Cooking requires some element of noise so its to be expected if you want cooking to be done...on the other hand kids engaging in the inappropriate behavior of screaming their lungs out is a parent's choice to allow. Even the chef call the person talking to him a jerk for a reason....

Great video.....super job....keep up the awesome work.

I love watching your videos! Brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for taking us grocery shopping with you. 😀

[@jodypickett4904]

Looking good chef! So exciting when a new video drops.

[@littlemisscr]

I love this content, Eric! Keep up the great work, and thank you!

[@triciajames2433]

I love that they have the Breville smart oven air fry pro!!! best convention oven ever!!! Tip the top of it warms up so you can warm up your food plates before serving!!!

[@susanolsen7248]

Looking to upgrade my airfryer- you recommend the Breville?

[@dw908]

I enjoy these videos, just to see a day in the life of rarer occupations. Like an MCU character, you need an origin story video. You know, short bio, education/training background, favorite foods/specialties, food philosophy, mutant abilities.

[@userqwerty-g2y]

i love your energy, keep going 🎉🎉🎉

Hello again, my friend. Another video here that I woke up to. What a nice surprise.

Hey Chef Eric, glad to see you have recovered some of your long form videos. Rewatching was nice!

Thank you! 😃

[@caitcreates4247]

I love watching you grocery shop. What app are you using for a shopping list? The different categories for spices, produce, etc. look very helpful.

[@ChadLusk-t8m]

Love this Thank you

[@elfiewurm5854]

watching you cook makes one hungry

[@susiemendenhall4307]

I read "Pirate Chef" instead of "Private Chef", so here I was for a moment thinking you were out on the high seas cooking in-between skirmishes for your band of scallywags 😂

I love naps ❤

I love your channel! Please keep'em comin'! =}

[@laureenefurnari1609]

As I follow along the way you explain it. It sounds absolutely delicious watching you still can’t believe you lost 30 pounds but good for you if it’s for your health and also I was wondering because you had said your client was on a special diet with diabetes and so am I it’s always good watching your videos. Thank you for the time you put into them. 🎉❤

[@lifeinmyemptynest]

Commenting and sharing 😉

[@Bel-ri4vz]

Alterations Alterations Alterations. Send me those chef coats.....ill make them fit. Of course, the local seamstress will do. You look amazing!

[@HeyTezza]

Oh nah man really, you did not look frumpy, stop it, go back to being you, that’s the you we all fell in love with! I know you lost all your videos and I was the lucky one who found you the week before and binge watched them all in a weekend, please don’t change, we’re all still here xxx

[@raymorris7993]

Quick suggestion (mainly to help me, I'm not sure): maybe when choosing produce or diff stuff at the store, could you tell us how to find the best of X item? Like the avocado. I suck at choosing a good one! Thanks!

[@CulinaryMisfits]

thanks for the feedback. That's a great idea and I'll do what I can. I have 100 things coming at me plus I'm trying to do all my grocery shopping. But it's a great idea.

[@mariagillinson8527]

Eric you need to try onion rice… fry onion till caramelized then add rice, salt and a little pepper cook rice as usual… yummy! You can also cook the rice same way but add a little tomato paste for flavour.

[@susanolsen7248]

I love to save my shrimp shells to make a seafood stock! 🦐

[@GraveDigger7045]

Your seasonings look so good Would love if you had a cookbook or recipe section

If we're going through Chef Eric's wardrobe can the heavy duty black Kevlar apron and the brown apron with the leather trim make an appearance. You look Michelin star in those! Super professional and very swanky.

[@andyackerman7123]

Silverchair playing at Whole Foods 🤔 I can dig it.

[@paulageier23]

They wanted you to prep at home because of the noise..haha those kids

[@DDFHW]

Hey man, love your videos. About your videos being deleted, I think you should tweet about it to KZbin and maybe they can somehow bring them back. At least they seem to do so for the channels that get hacked.

[@merliny]

Nice!

[@margiemayhew5214]

Lookin Good!

[@mschilepepper10]

I love the chef coat on you. I think you look more professional when you are working. P.S. the weight lost looks great on you

[@CarFreeKC]

If you like your blue chef coat, consider taking it to a tailor and see if they can take it in for you! No sense in getting rid of a high quality clothing piece that you like just because you're skinnier! ha

[@dangitjacques5133]

I keep seeing everyone make crispy rice that I need to try and make it

[@CulinaryMisfits]

It's so good! Make sure you use sushi rice, let it sit overnight and make sure the tuna or salmon are good quality

[@grif3024]

Do you use a specific app for your grocery list?

[@curly6619]

Is there a specific kind of tuna you purchase? I would love to make a raw tuna dish like that at home but am nervous about it.

[@fredmyers503]

how do you keep your personal shopping list separate from your work one? and what app were you using?

[@GeorgeWashington-je5kr]

You Tube asked me what i thought about this video and even though i dislike you a great deal, i gave you rave reviews. You are my favorite hate watch, you irk me, but i cant stop watching.

Somehow it felt Mango salsa on top wouldn't go well, on side should be good...overall, AWESOMEEE though first half felt like a silent movie 2nd half added your punch❤

[@CulinaryMisfits]

I can see where you would think that, but it actually went really well with the spiciness. mango salsa is pretty common with spicy foods because it does go so well together. Give it a try, but as your Private Chef, I'd always be happy to put it on the side for you.

[@melbas5253]

Thanks Chef! How did you lose the weight?

[@dmmness]

Was someone holding the camera for you while making dinner? When you were about to start, how was the video tracking you "if" no one was holding the camera? Everything there looked delicious! As a private chef, marketing yourself is always very important..!

[@CulinaryMisfits]

I use the Osmo pocket 3. It has a tracking feature. Love it

[@dmmness]

@@CulinaryMisfits Lovin the vids so far. Keep up the great work! BTW, what grocery list app are you using? I like the look of that one.

[@kerrywhitemd]

good job on the weight loss! whats your tips and tricks/

[@CulinaryMisfits]

Don't eat all the delicious stuff like pizza, pasta and potatoes. Stop drinking and eating so much sugar. That's literally all I did. Oh, and I started working out

[@Alia-rq4nm]

Eat basically one meal a day. You can’t eat like these ppl do in the video. If you want to lose. I don’t know about maintaining it.

[@elabuterin7150]

Would love to see some recipes on your channel so we could recreate it?

Have your local dry cleaner or whom ever- rip the steams and take off a inch or two. or better yet have them put some darts under the arm and at the waist. Just some internet 2 cents love your channel💖

No way! The brand means nothing. My aprons are pretty much the same if not better with no branding and only cost an eighth of the price.
