Did You Miss Me?
Yeah You Did
THE ORIGIN STORY OF CHEF ANTHONY ROSE part 3
is actually so boring to me right now maybe not due to the fact that I am boring, god forbid we know I’m not, but probably just for the matter of factness of my immense ADHD and overall proclivity to start something and do it absolutely great and then just kinda sorta fizzle out.
So here we are. Where? Where am I? To synopsisize, I guess what I have been saying is 1-I am bored of Me. 2-I just kinda sorta forgot where I was going with this. 3-Why yes thanks I am quite handsome and funny and witty and quite practiced in the art of the Kama Sutra (you are very welcome to a goodly bunch of you). 4-It was my 42nd Birthday the other day and you didn’t even say HBD and or buy me awesome gifts. 5-I have adopted a dog named Toast that is not quite a dog and most likely just kinda sorta plays one IRL (in real life).
I suppose that it is only fair that I now list what you the paying (ha) public and HUGE fans have been saying about me. 1- Why do I even open this Newsletter? 1b- unsubscribe! 2-He really is extremely good looking and highly intelligent and has even finished wordle on the second guess 27 times and that’s pretty fuckfarts cool if you ask me. 3-I mean if he has to bring up the whole Kama Sutra hahahahahahahah as if………… 4- 42nd birthday hahahahahahahahahahahah as if. 5- I am strangely affected and attracted in a weird way by him (me) and this stupid newsletter. 6-Help me!!!!!!
But before we move on and I get even more distarcted than usual I do very much so have to bring up one more restaurant and one more dude and many more time and places to close out this madness of a list. Rodney’s is the restaurant and Rodney is the Dudeliest of all the dudes. Rodney passed recently and I was lucky enough to know him but did not know him well and wished I knew him better. I can say that like very many of us I was deeply affected by him and his lifelong passion for all things Oyster and Oyster Bar.
Many many many years ago at the tender ages of 16 Noah Weinzweig and I went to see a concert of a Harpist performing one of John Weinzweig’s Compositions at the old O’Keefe Centre. John was/is quite the famous Canadian Composer and we were/are quite the effected by psilocybin at the time of (and jus a lil bit right now) said concert. I am ashamed to this day that we sat first row and could not control our giggles and were kicked out very quickly by John. It seemed like a very good idea at this point to go to Rodney’s and eat Chowder and or the cheapest thing they had currently on the menu. I am ashamed to this day that we could not control our giggles and our overall psychedelic good times and were promptly kicked out by Rodney himself. To be candid he was great and actually quite understanding of our psychedelic situation. Bless his oyster heart.
Fast forward a lifetime and many meals at Rodney’s on King street……… I took a third date to Rodney’s because she wanted King Crab and that seemed like a very cool awesome and delicious idea until the waiter told me the daily price for King Crab was $125 bucks a LB??????? I am ashamed to this day that as a young cook with less than zero Benjamin’s I had to awkwardly tell my date to order the fries instead!
Now let’s talk about Munchies and me and Rodney’s. A monster of a You Tube channel dedicated to all things delicious around the world. We shot a segment for Munchies called Chef’s Night out and the majority of it took place at Rodney’s. Lucky you, lucky us, lucky them, lucky me. Please watch as I am younger and hotter and funnier than usual if that is even possible.
I could tell many a more story (like the time I ordered 4lbs of Mussels for the table and JABUB took it upon herself to take each and every Mussel out of it’s shell for everyone at the table without even asking ME) (or the time a date took it upon herself to dress all 24 oysters on the platter w lemon juice AND hot sauce without even asking me) (or the time I told DoDo to go in the mens room and look at all the photos of BOOBS on the wall and she was all like WTF would I ever do that for?) of how essential and iconic and just the depth of how Rodney’s has helped develop Oyster culture worldwide but I NEED YOU TO GO IMMEDIATELY AND SEE FOR YOURSELVES. Thank you to Rodney and the Rodney family, all my love and gratitude.
