It's weird, at Feenie's when I first started the code for a hot chick was "butter lettuce". I was on garde-manger and we actually had a butter lettuce salad on the menu, when a hot girl walked by and they all started yelling "butter lettuce! butter lettuce!" I ran to the walkin and grabbed a bunch and came running online. It took a second for me to catch on and I tried to look like I was just re-stocking my station, but I saw Bryan laughing and shaking his head from the corner of my eye.

My first chef Jeff Van Geest used to work at Hy's and he let me in on the meaning. In the open kitchen (exposed to the restaurant), a code word was needed for when a beautiful lady walked into the restaurant - something vaguely sexual that would not tip off the customers that the cooks were being perverted. So Butter on the Endive was born. The name Butter on the Endive is restaurant slang from Hy’s and The Keg. My first chef Jeff Van Geest used to work at Hy’s and he let me in on the meaning.
