The
brooding young pot washer stood in the corner of the kitchen asserting his alpha
male stratus, obviously not phased by the new kid’s presence. The ‘James
Dean’ of pot washing, Pedro as the new kid comes to know him, was definitely
too cool for school, destined for a life above the grind of work and study.
The new kid could see a hunger in Pedro’s eyes that wasn’t going
to be satisfied by Belmont’s kitchen. After some polite, restrained exchanges
it transpired that the two had more in common than Belmont. Pedro too had a
professional interest in the human dentition and a personal interest in rocking
faces. And so, over a couple of dangerously-out-of-date adult beverages, the
Kestrel was born.
