Emeril, of course!

I worked a s tint as a fry cook...literally, I was the guy at the fryer 
who incidentally mostly cooked fries (but  also onio nrings, 
breadsticks (yes, in the fryer), shrimp and hot dogs) and that is 
somethin g I *never* want to do again

the worst part was when you worked till close, you had to clean the 
wall  behind the fryers and grill, so you pulled them out and had to go 
back there, and the floor was all greasy too, ugh...and cleaning the 
fry vats too...only had to do that a couple times thank god...
