Good morning to all of our beloved friends and clients and may I say BRAVO to all the home chefs out there who have been cooking up a culinary tempest.

​

Seriously you guys and gals have been nothing but impressive regarding your cooking "chops" and your ability to speak "Chef" in your own kitchen. Why just yesterday, William from Whitehouse was telling me about the dishes he created last week for his family and then it happened, he started speaking chef and saying things like "...well, I looked at the reservations on the book (his family of four) and saw I had a four-top of VIPs. Well, I started my mise en place (French for "everything in its place" or prep work before cooking) and by the time service came the clock got away from me and before I knew it I was in the weeds (a term used for falling behind in the kitchen). Now you know I always do my Sole Veronique A la minute ( French for "in the minute,") but my..." I had to stop him there and say "Whoa big cat, I can't even digest the amount of Chef Speak you just Brunoised (French term for fine chopping) on me. By the way, what do you do for a living when you're not "bamming" it like Emeril Lagasse in your kitchen?" and without a beat, he said, "Oh, I'm a Bookkeeping, accounting, and auditing clerk but my real passion is writing haiku." I did not see that coming, no not the Bookkeeping, accounting, and auditing part, the haiku was what really melted my brain (full disclosure, I'm a fan of the 5-7-5 format).

Well either way, to all the folks out there feeling your Little Chef growing into a Bigger Chef (sorry, that sounds wrong but you know what I mean) I am super stoked to have new contemporaries to chat with regarding cooking techniques and the merits of an Egg Cuber (just kidding there is no merits to eating squared hard-boiled eggs). And to William, I hope you will enjoy my haiku, "Now that you can cook, Here are today's recipes, Cook your heart out dude." Sorry, it's no Willy Shakespeare but all in all a solid haiku. Oh, I almost forgot, here are the recipes I promised; Grilled Halibut over a Zucchini Arugula Salad   &   Grilled Whole Red Snapper with a Lemon Basil Drizzle. All kidding aside, these dishes sound "Chefy" but are quite easy. In closing please know that whether you are a seasoned Little Chef or just a "I make a good Ramen" cook, the staff at Metro is eager to help you create delicious and healthy meals for you and your loved ones.  Please just ask us for any guidance at all but remember should you start wearing a chef coat in the house, you must also wear pants, even during your "Little Chef" zoom party.

​

UPDATED PROCEDURES 

1 You can COME IN the store and shop (we are limiting the number of customers for your safety). You must wear a mask and observe all physical distancing protocol.

You can click here for a (48 hour in advance) order (we will call you the next day for confirmation). VERY IMPORTANT; IF YOU HAVE AN ORDER PLEASE CALL US WHEN YOU ARRIVE, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO WAIT IN LINE. You cannot order a deep tissue massage but an elbow rub is on the table.

​

Seriously just ask, if we have it, you'll have it.

7. And lastly, We know that along with the obvious health issues some of you might be finding yourself in severe financial crisis, due to layoffs during this time. Please do not hesitate to call the store or direct message us on Facebook or Instagram so we may provide a hot meal, free of charge, to those in need. This will be practiced with the utmost discretion maintaining complete privacy to all of those involved. You have plenty to worry about but we will have no one in our community go hungry tonight.

​

Seriously though, we are here to help in anyway we can so please do not hesitate to ask for anything at all when you email or call your order in...this is what we do for a living. Thank you all sincerely for stopping by and we wish you all, an abundance of health and laughter as we continue on this unchartered journey.
