M: I’m with Karina Rogers, who’s training at a top restaurant to be a chef. Karina, where did your interest in cooking come from?

W: Well, both my parents prepared food in their hotel kitchen, and although I helped them a bit, I never enjoyed that much. In fact, it wasn’t until I worked for two weeks at a restaurant that I realized cooking was for me. Before that, I’d just make salads for myself.

M: And the restaurant was really pleased with you.

W: Yes, and that gave me the confidence to enter a cooking competition. I wasn’t among the winners, but the judges really liked what I made.

M: Then a top chef noticed your cooking.

W: Yes, and he gave me a Saturday job at his restaurant. My first task was to prepare a salad. No one had told me the food was for someone famous, but it seemed she really liked it, so as a result the chef offered to train me full time at the restaurant.

M: And do you eat out in your free time?

W: I don’t do that anymore.

M: Because it is expensive?

W: No. On my days off, I just like eating at home. It’s a good chance to be with my parents!
