Folks who post on this blog know that I am not an apolgist for City Hall, or for Randy, but.....
1. This appears to emminate from the Fire Bureau, not City Hall;
2. For generations, in PDX and elsewhere, firehouses have had fire fighters cook, and cook a lot of food very nicely;
3. The nature of the fire suppression business by definition requires a huge amountof waiting around time, waiting for the call to come in which sends the "house" out to a fire, or a road accident, or on some other EMT type call.
4. Given what I see in other Bureaus (BDS; BPS; Water: BES), I'm having a problem getting all worked up about this as a waste of fire bureau employee time.
Your mileage may vary.

The recipe itself came from one of the city's seven-figure army of "public information officers." And surely one or more additional central office "tweeters" were involved.
We use "City Hall" to denote city government generally. Try to catch on.
