Chef Nick Oltarsh describes what it's like to be behind the scenes of Sunday brunch at One Midtown Kitchen in five-minute increments. Here's an excerpt: "7:05 a.m.: Fireball of boiling steel-cut oatmeal erupts onto my arm creating permanent oatmeal scar. Saves me trouble of getting obligatory chef tattoo." Also, a cook falls asleep on the bathroom floor, but don't worry because Chef Oltarsh makes him "scrub ruthlessly" before going back to work. Head over to Creative Loafing to read the whole thing.
