Chef Tasting Sauce Under Fluorescent Lights in in a cafe in Santa Teresa, Rio de Janeiro

Chef Tasting Sauce Under Fluorescent Lights

by Phyllis Blankenship

Harsh fluorescent tubes cast flat, unyielding light across the stainless steel counter of a Santa Teresa cafe in Rio de Janeiro. A chef stands in profile, leaning slightly forward to lift a wooden spoon to his lips. The spoon holds a glossy, deep red sauce that reflects the harsh ceiling lights. Behind him, a tiled wall in faded terracotta and white stretches upward, showing the wear of years. Polished metal surfaces catch small, sharp highlights, creating a grid of bright spots against the cool shadows. The turn of seasons is visible in the thin layer of dust settling on the edge of a nearby shelf. The chef's expression remains focused, his eyes fixed on the spoon as he tastes the mixture. A small drop of sauce rests on the tip of the wooden handle, catching the light.
