Escoffier On Line

Hello-I have been collecting the ever dynamic language of the professional kitchen for some time now--lately I have been marine cooking and that has opened up a new area of language. At the old web food pros site I had posted this idea and well, I thought since this site is starting fresh why not?

So, how about any new names for `food to go`; equipment; cooks; etc....

So what do you already have? It would be silly to just post anything since I have no idea what went before I found this site.

Well I have hundreds of phrases but too vast to post at this moment. Having said that what about other words or phrases for a few of the following;
1)Beginner cooks-grunts,OJT's(on the job trainees), maggots, rooks, wombats, or even `masterchefs`.....
2)Food to go-with legs,kicking rocks, with shoes on,to have wheels,walking, pare calle,put some sneakers on it, put that on wheels, with wings, bagit and tag it....
3)Dishwashers-dishpigs, dish dogs, pot wallopers,swampers,dish monkees, cweamic engineers...
4)Food that was ruined or overcooked-zizzed,dead, getting it's p45, mangy, schwag, cremate,sunkissed, shitcan it,yo momma,burnit,shoeleather, crispy, with teeth,ruin me a fillet.....
