Hmmm. I’ve had rabbit prepared 5 different ways at a very expensive restaurant once (had just gotten a bonus for the first time in my life and it landed on my wife and I’s anniversary). It was fantastic, like dark meat from a turkey or chicken, but a tad gamey which I didn’t mind.
Venison is delicious, as is elk. Buffalo burgers are solid, not much different than regular. I’ve had ostrich jerky but it’s pretty much the same as most other jerkys by that point.
Had shark once, was very good and similar to swordfish.
Funnily enough all of these things I tried in the US, and none while actually traveling abroad despite adventures to most of the continents at this point.
See what you can get by putting some subtle feelers out. Talk to a recruiter or two. Best time to search for a job is while you have one, but you don’t have to commit to it full time unless shit really hits the fan. You’re more likely to get written up than fired initially anyway if he’s not the owner, erratic or not he has to answer for that.
Continue working towards whatever certifications you want in the meantime, especially if the job pays/reimburses you for it.
