I know how chaotic a kitchen can be but my God how calm he is. It shows how much passion he has in his craft. Food prep, service and clean up after is a ton of work.

That is one of those “day in the life” vlogs that is so eye opening. We’re watching someone who knows what he’s doing but it’s not like you are on automatic. I see you engaged every moment be it with the prep of the food or with your coworkers. My parents had a small restaurant and I helped them open a new location. I remember going to the restaurant with my father at 5a. He had me chopping vegetables and prepping everything, taking stock, washing dishes, clearing tables and at the end of the day cleaning and mopping before we closed. Thank God he didn’t expect me to take over the restaurant because at the end of the day this kind of business is not in my blood. I didn’t love it like my parents. And it’s too much work. 🤨

This must have taken a ton of work! Never an easy "a life in a day ____" while vlogging, but thanks for bringing us along :)

This gives me a whole new appreciation of how hard your job is. The long hours, on your feet all day, the prepping, cleaning, cooking, I know you must be exhausted by the time you get home! That said, your dishes are so creative and beautiful. You bring joy to those patrons you cook for, and it makes me want to hop on a plane to Vancouver and eat at your restaurant! Skip, from Atlanta

Gotta be honest, as a cook who has a VERY similar daily life, this video only made me appreciate it more.

Your whole day is literally work, but you seem to enjoy it! I worked at a higher end restaurant and would often work 12 hour shifts and it just wasn't for me so I quit after 4 months. I ended up finding a cooking job that's more my style and pays more, with 40 hour work weeks :D

My daughter is a chef in Alberta now. Her current workplace relies on her 100%, she’s the only one in the kitchen and needs to prepare a menu 8 weeks in advance! She left a chain restaurant job as manager of kitchen for her current employer! I used to be a soul chef when I was a teenager, hard work busting balls daily! Your work doesn’t go unnoticed! Good job! ❤️🇨🇦❤️ from Ontario. My son is in the health care field in Vancouver and daughter is in Fort McMurray!

The service industry is not for everyone. But I couldn't see myself doing anything else honestly. There's something just so satisfying about it. Get to work at 7am. Don't leave till 4-6pm. But you don't feel exhausted cuz it's something you love. I am a prep cook. Loved the video brother.

Thank you for showing us this, Good luck znd I Wish this kid the best in this lifestyle, you put in 10-12 hrs days 50hrs or know a week. Get off work, sleep, wake up work and repeat. Hope you make it to the top cause I had that passion but after 20yrs I lost it

The perfect sort of video to watch when I wake up at 3:15 AM. Quiet elegance of a skilled chef.

i mean its really honest and nice, i kinda like it idk why. you are not using like cheesy intros or even talking to the camera like other vloggers, its nice to see something simple !!

This was so great to watch. There's something very comforting about watching a man and his craft. Kudos Ryan.

This was really fun to watch! Love to see how kitchens function. Thanks for sharing Ryan :)

I love Ryan's rawness. It's quite a refreshing feel on the internet.

You did that all so effortlessly. Much respect for you, Ryan!

Quality content mate. Love the raw, unedited sounds of the kitchen experience.

it makes me so happy that a good person like ryan is in our world.

Truly enjoyed this video. This is part of a chef's dedication that most dinners would not know or appreciate. It is like a 24/7 job. Thanks and keep up with the good work.

Your skills are so diverse - another awesome video. Thank you I really genuinely enjoy the content you put out.

I love your energy and how passionate you are about cooking. Please keep up the good work!

So love these bts perspectives to the inner workings of a restaurant, especially the backend! To be in the culinary world, you have to show grit and passion for the art at the same time! Have to be in tuned to all your senses: sight, smell, taste, feel and sound! Dang, the discipline and steadfastness of a military soldier with the finesse and timing of any genre of artists. Filmed and edited so well. Great flow, great feel. And a greater appreciation to the service industry for feeding everyone’s craving ass ass*ss! Thanks, Ryan!

Can't tell you how much I relate to this. We were running a deli as our family business for about 47 years...

watching the meals come together and then the plating at the end is so relaxing

Dude, that was insane…Iam exhausted just watching you. It’s incredible the hard work you all do in the kitchen. You are all amazing!!

This is so satisfying to watch, especially the last part -- cleaning the mess after the long day.

Nothing buts respect for professional cooks. People don’t realise how hard that job is. Kudos! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Impressive calm under pressure and dedication. Thank you for a bit of perspective.

You have such a chill vibe…. And have a passion for what you do. It shows, and that’s why I love watching your videos. Wish you the best and hope for more. 😊

Love it when you do this type of vid, actually find it very relaxing to watch after a long day at work.👍

Great job man! That's the thankless passion that is needed to be in this industry! You are showing what the love of the job means along with the pride put into every dish and the sense of accomplishment is the best feeling in the world!

Don’t miss it at all. Cheers to all you guys out there grinding a job that doesn’t get the respect it deserves

Really love this kind of videos, keeps me motivated every time i work, even if I'm not in the food industry. You're incredible mate. 👌

I've been away from kitchen for a month now and miss it so much, ended up here. thank you.

This is the one I been waitin for! Absolutely loved this! Woot woot!

I rlly loved the simplicity of this video. This video also helped me escape for a bit. Keep up the work I hope you're truly appreciated.

I love this. You work incredibly hard, yet remain relaxed at the same time. This tireless work ethic and exceptional skill is why you always tip the staff!

Loved this, Ryan. Thank you. It made me nostalgic except for being on my feet all day. Walking miles in an area no bigger than a bedroom. 😊

Absolutely love these videos man, love the rustic environment of this kitchen vs the last one and working in a legit farm to table restaurant with this level of execution has to be an amazing experience.

I need more of those videos they are perfect. Keep up the good work bro

Watching your videos keeps calm and relax. Keep it up!

It's very calming watching you prepare.

Brilliant work on the attention to detail, plating was on point and the menu looked great!! Looking forward to checking out more of your videos Chef

man you are a warrior and brave. Thank you for sharing the reality with everyone!

Very nice! Love the presentation the process from prep to service. Cool vibe as well.

Fascinating insight- thanks for sharing 👍 Ryan, I hope you fully appreciate how far you have come & how much you have grown in these past years, you should be proud of yourself. Keep up the positive momentum 😉 WE ARE PROUD OF YOU 👍

Hi Ryan thank you for sharing your work dinamic. You and Joe inspired me to keep on track with my professional life. Have a great weekend

I've never seen such beautiful dishes, the creativity of this kitchen team is unreal!!

Thanks for sharing this. From my perspective (as someone who isn't a great cook), it seems like you really have to *love* cooking to do it as a job all day long, at least 5 days a week. It looks labour-intensive and like it requires a lot of attention to detail. I appreciate the people who cook / bake well, so I can enjoy eating it. 😀

Love it! This open my eyes how hard work as a chef is, I’m studying in a culinary school right now and your videos make me feel more passionate about this cuz I love cook I love cook for someone else it will be hard but will be a pleasure

As someone starting out I really appreciate the good cinematography displaying your technique. Subscribed!

thanks for taking us along with you to work! awesome!

i used to work as bartender and always was impressed from the long hours you guys in the kitchen willing to work. i arrived like 6:30-7 and my shift was over like 1-2am and you guys where there like all day. And finish at 11:00

wow, thank you for bringing us to work with you! theres no doubt that you HAVE to love what you're doing and I totally admire your ambition xx cheers

It’s such hard work. I am at awe. Keep up the great work

Sincerely, I always wondered. at the end, it sez, "Thanks for watching." The best I can say is, "Thanks for making these videos." I worked as personal in-home chef in households in the famous Thunder Bird Heights of Rancho Mirage. So, I have much appreciation for those who work in the hard-core food service industry. Thanks again for this vlog. Very well done. Superb editing of audio and video. It flows like a beautiful river by the light of the moon.

This is awesome. 😍 thanks for sharing what a day looks like for you.

That level of talent across multiple disciplines is really quite remarkable. Bravo Ryan!

Loved the video! I look forward to stopping by when I am in Vancouver next!

This was dope. Mad respect to you brother from one cook to another

Just Subscribed to your channel. I'm a line cook and to see someone working very organized and neat puts a smile to my face. I sorta fell off with making content and honestly your videos have inspired me to get back into it. I'm really considering taking my camera into work tmrw and making one of those day in a life videos. Its awesome giving the public a glimpse of what kitchen life is like. Cheers from NYC!

Thank you for sharing a cool evening at work. The dishes look really nice as you made them. Very nice!!! Continued success to you.

You are an incredibly talented artist! The food you created was absolutely beautiful!

Awesome to see a professional like you at work,and the dishes look delicious. I'll be sure to stop by when I'm in the neighbourhood 😄

I been cooking over 10years line cook is a stressful job but still love it at the end of the shift I just think about how much people I feed and feel great about it...

Passion. When you love what you do. When work isn’t work. Details . Perfection.

Loved the video Ryan. Very relaxing and interesting, You sure work hard at what you do. Thanks for sharing.💪💪

Great video of an honest days work. Didn't realize line cooks had some much room for creativity. Thought it was just cooking the same thing again and again. Learned something!

Good stuff. I like these kinds of videos --like the one that you did like this at the last place that you worked. They're fun because, as diners, they allow us to see things from different perspectives. I've watched a lot of your videos, and with these I always find myself wondering more about the food and the menus than I do about you, which for these kinds of vlogs I think is a real achievement on your part. It's not really a personality vehicle, like Anthony Bourdain's programs ultimately were. It really is about celebrating the food and the work and talent that goes into making the dishes happen. And, at the same time, there is a human aspect to it (interacting with your co-workers, receiving shipments of product, etc.) that saves it from being just a process video. Really great balance of visual and narrative content. Thanks, Ryan!

I absolutely love this, as a cook myself it makes me feel all cozy because 1. I can relate! and 2. I can always learn new techniques/routines/see what's it like at other kitchens. Keep it up !!

Ryan, I love your videos! Great things are coming your way 👏🏽

This is so relaxing and asmr-ish. You work so hard. Kudos.

Ryan, oh my goodness that bread is everything 👑 I love your work ethic

This was so relaxing and calming to watch 💓💓💓💓 wow the food you know how to cook is impressive!

please continue doing these types of videos! they’re honestly the best!

Great job capturing the day. 😀

Holy shit man. Recently I realized that I wanted to cook as a profession, not only a hobby. Watching your videos just makes me even more excited, I hope I can cook on your level soon

So much effort in your craft and passion omg😩💕

LOVED this, Ryan!

For the love of cooking--it's such hard work. It takes a special person, an artist, to enjoy it.

I like the rectangle set-up for folding dough. I use dry, coarse salt in a small pile to seal during an 'autolese' step; the pressure dissolves the salt and then the salt reacts with amino acids before oils.

This was so relaxing to watch

This brings me back, working in a kitchen is awesome...even in tight spaces you could always find a way to have fun and still get the job done in those grueling, hot hours. Also, love the Death Eater tattoo if thats what it is.

geeeez such a hard work keep going ryan we are rooting for you

Wonderful video Ryan! Thank you for sharing.

This was super facinating Ryan! I love seeing how things are made. Like those vids where you see Candy get made and etc. It's incredible. Makes me start to deep dive and look into "How did humanity learn to do all this? Who thought up these cooking processes?" Any chance you can do other videos showing us other dishes you make? Perhaps some of your own unique personal recipes and how you make/cook them?

Ryan I enjoy hearing everything going on in the background as you film instead of playing music over it. It enhances the video for me. Keep it up 😊💛

You are talented with a gift and a passion kudos my friend!!!

This is the most soothing thing that's happened to me all year.

Darn!! I was watching the vlog and hoping the “Vancouver” you were in was my Vancouver! I live a few hours south of you in Vancouver, WA! Thanks for a great vlog and showing some amazing food!!

I find it amusing and entertaining to watch your job at kitchen 👍

Dude you have such a quiet kitchen! Such an awesome video man!

Very cool bts video. I have a lot of respect for the amount of hard work and craft required in the culinary industry.

A man who can cook is special.. love the video

Beautiful food. The final dishes are amazing.

That looks like a ton of work. Wow. But a lot of passion also, love it.

It's very relaxing watching a person who knows what they're doing work.

Master at work...amazing stuff Ryan

I was a commis chef in a fairly prestigious restaurant for around 2 years working 10-14 hour shifts 5-6 days a week as a 16-18 year old 😂. This video gives me horrible flash backs to those groggy prep mornings before the mayhem of lunch and dinner service. What a thrill it was but never never again not a sustainable job for most people but miss is sometimes 😢

Boy, I do not miss this life at all! Bless you Ryan

Great job, do more of this style of videos Ryan.
