Chicken Soup for the Restless Soul
Description
IMPORTANT NOTE: I no longer support this couple due to recent current events regarding certain criminal acts. I will leave these fics up for posterity, because I know what it's like to lose access to stories. Still, please take note that this fic represents a moment in time and does not mean that I actively support this person or this couple. I will not be writing any more of this pairing in the future.
Kris spent long, tough years training to pass his master sommelier test. It cost him his wife, and left him balancing life as a single father. So, of course, he takes his job - and his life - very seriously. On the flipside is their newest hire, some little punk named Tao who smokes heavily, cusses like a sailor, and plays loud and inappropriate hiphop in the kitchens. So... how the hell does someone like that cook something like that?
