I am translating a resume for a Mexican chef who specializes in Mexican and Uruguayan cuisine. He writes:

Thanks to all. I finally went with cook different kinds of foods because it is a resume and everything else seemed too strange to write. Unfortunately, resumes don't have too much context, Carol.

neutral  Carol Gullidge: well of course he cooks food - that goes without saying, and so wouldn't be worth mentioning on a Chef's CV! There must be more to it than this, but unfortunately the context provided doesn't help much
