Since I'm one of the guys that cooked the food at fancy restaurants, I'm not willing to pay for what I can do for myself.

I did however, back in the day, take comps. Best one I ever got was at a high end restaurant I had done slave labor (internship) at right before I deployed. My date was another Sergeant of appropriate gender and rank (female, same rank as me, and very, very pretty).

The owner even comp'ed the wines. All I had to pay was tip and taxes. 60 bucks.

That kind of meal, I'll go out for, others, I'll cook myself. ;)

WE had a pissing match over santuko knives a while back. I bought a real Jap laminated steel santuko, for an horrid amount of money, you were right, I grovel in defeat.
