Sliders and Corporate Cheerleading

It is no secret that my current employer has some amazing perks, not the least of which is free food. This past Friday, they had an Oscar-like competition where all the chefs prepared their best dish and then all the employees voted on it. What a great day to invite my local cousins, Mark, and his wife into the office for a free lunch.

The entries included things like filet mignon stuffed with lobster and wrapped in bacon, a spicy curried halibut that was excellent, and this, the winning dish:



Best Dish - Main Dish - Tuna Teriyaki Sliders with Grilled Pineapple and Basil Aioli

Sadly, we had so much stuff piled on our plates that our Tuna Slider went un-eaten, so I cannot vouch for them. Now, the best side dish---yucca fries with lime enhanced natural sea salt--were Oscar-worthy.

Ok, despite the stock getting hammered these days, this is still the best place to work in America. For more pics of the foodie Oscar's, click here.
