The unthinkable has happened!

I have a JOB. Like a real job, with a real work permit and real paychecks!

I am a server at a new restaurant opening in Camana Bay called Ortanique: Cuisine of the Sun. I started training today and the restaurant opens Nov 24. I was hired for the job almost 2 months ago but I didn't want to say anything until the work permit was approved. As an expat, you don't really have the job until the government says so.

Did you click on the link above? Ortanique is fancy, no? Doesn't the food look amazing? I can not wait until the food tasting day! The restaurant is really nice and they have a location in Miami with a great following. Also exciting is that the head chef in Cayman was on Top Chef, Season 3!

This job does change things around here, but hopefully the hours won't be too strenuous. Bob will be very busy this winter at work, so hopefully this job will keep me from going stir crazy!



Here is a photo from the first day of training. I'm the tall one in the back, like always :).

  3. Congratulations! I guess we should have tried to make it down to see you before you became a working woman. Do you still get to come home for Thanksgiving?
