Chelsea is also home to a Japanese restaurant called "Benihana" where I used to work as a waiter for many years.
I remember my first paycheque so vividly. I opened the envelope and just stood there looking at my first wage in silence - unable to move and confused.
How was it that I worked so many hours until late in the evenings only to be compensated so little?
After leaving my dad's studio, I had no income, so I had little choice but to continue working at Benihana - but I'm glad I did, as it changed my life.
It wasn't until later that I discovered the wage was calculated according to sales. During quiet periods, the wage was rock bottom low, but during busy times, the wage was generous. I managed to save enough every year to visit Japan, where I could soak in the culture and improve my Japanese speaking.
During busy periods, Benihana was hectic - which was great as I learned to deal with so much chaos - customers, staff, logistics, inventory, quality control, and what have you.
These days, if I am hiring, I rather give priority to folks who have worked in a restaurant than to folks with a BA or MA.
I also met wifey at Benihana - I am lucky to be with her ;-)
So there you have it - my "Chelsea" story ;-)
We kept the design of the boot orthodox, but we made sure to make them look as weathered as possible so expect a ton of uneven blemishes on the surface that will patina over time as you handle it with your hands soaked in the aftermath of having some Mc Donald's fries.
Unlike human versions, we put a zip on the inside to allow it to be worn with ease.
