Recently a colleague who started in the company the same time as I did, resigned to go on a career sea change. He resigned without a concrete plan in mind, no job to go to and definitely with no plans to start looking for another one within the next 6 months. This is a real career break, man! A professional gap year.
Anyway, he had been disillusioned with the industry and had been progressively losing his passion for work over the last few years. The objective of this career break will be to give him some time to do some fun stuff before figuring out what exactly makes him happy.
For me, I would just go out for a big lunch of delicious food.
We visited this neighbourhood restaurant recently. Basilico is an Italian restaurant and has a wood fire pizza oven. But I was keen to try out Italian food that is not of the usual pizza pasta genre.
We ordered the Scallopini Al Funghi ($21.90). Tender veal topped with some mushrooms and lots of chips.
Mix Fish Grill (22.90) - calamari, mussels, fish, chips and salad. This was quite dry but Gaz liked that the seafood was fresh.
The food was nice, but nothing really to shout about. Perhaps we should order the pizza next time.
