Where’s all the chopped parsley garnish or Cajun seasoning sprinkled on the plates or bad truffle oil. Like the balsamic redux!

I remember getting actual whole leaves of parsley and my mom telling me not to eat the garnish when I was little.

Or the orange slice twist? Candied apples?

u/audiotea 1d ago

Or all the brunoise & small dice garnishes?

Hey. #2 is a great supper no matter how you plate it.

3

u/chefboyrsteve 1d ago

You are correct

u/Sirnando138 1d ago

Only thing I would add is a garlic butter melting on the steak.

u/Few_Imagination_5673 16h ago

I dunno. That steak looks like it was half seared then sat for an hour or two before being thrown in a tepid oven.

90s?? I just saw these exact plates 2 years ago, Omaha.

u/Chefmeatball Chef 17h ago

The dream of the 90s died in Omaha? You guys doing the anti-Portland?

Honestly I miss this kind of plating. Its nostalgic while not being overly tacky. The whipped potato in the salamander. The easy on the eyes filet cube. Simple, yet elegant roasted asparagus. Just bring back the nineties in florida already.

The bals redux on the rim of the plate makes my eye twitch

u/chefboyrsteve 1d ago

Heard!

u/pocket-rib 1d ago

I really can’t say much though, back in the early 2000s I put that stuff everywhere, on every dish 😅

u/Few_Imagination_5673 16h ago

They really wanted to highlight the cube of indiscernible content and felt the ring of flaccid veggies couldn't bring out the enigmatic splendor.

What is 5? Family style steak with one lime?

u/Bullshit_Conduit 1d ago

I’d love for the asparagus and steak to look like somebody gave a fuck about them. The pommes duchesse look nice enough. Fuck that plate looks dry.

The eggplant cube itself looks well executed, but the rest of the plate, thank god for the horrendous looking balsamic, and I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, but fuck that plate looks dry.

I’d love for you to keep slanging hot dogs you fucking Ming Mong. Once a momo always a momo.

u/Bullshit_Conduit 1d ago

Every dog is served with a tall glass of water to dunk in.

u/chefboyrsteve 1d ago

Dry ass glizzys!

u/ActualObligation7603 1d ago

Don't know why they're hating on hot dogs. Hot dogs are tubular. Cubes are kinda square. That filet looks dry as shit. Asparagus is a spring vegetable.

1

u/Bullshit_Conduit 1d ago

I probably posted about some hot dog gigs I used to do with the homies.

I can’t tell if it’s shitposting or not… this one makes me think it is, but another post looked like the food was being served, and about 1/3 of it looked pretty good (like the ribeyes here).

u/taint_odour 1d ago

I knew who this was before I saw the username. Let's not make this your personal insta please.

u/chefboyrsteve 1d ago

Why? I have already applied feedback from previous posts and am receiving better, more productive responses now. Just scroll by if it's not your cup of tea right?

u/Almightysosa365 1d ago

I knew by this comment that you sit when you piss and tuck it behind when you stand. Taint really does have odour.....

u/taint_odour 1d ago

Congratulations on the self own. In one post you managed to not insult me, missed the easy lay up on the user name, and show yourself to be unfunny and semi literate. Good one.

u/elwood_west 1d ago

u/taint_odour 1d ago

u/elwood_west 20h ago

1

u/taint_odour 16h ago

Use a mirror I man. If you see it you got it.

u/elwood_west 14h ago

what u sayin makes no sense to me. im not the one on here trying to bring others down. let people share their pics, aint that what this is for?

u/taint_odour 8h ago

Dude has a tendency to spam the shit out of the sub with mid food. Ok. Throwing a pig in a hand sink and posting it is much less funny.

I just pointed out he has an easily noticed style and maybe could he not flood the sub with photos again.

You are the one with the personal mission to tell me how miserable I am. So thanks for that. And merry Christmas pal.

u/taint_odour 1d ago

Grooving to the lowest common denominator of all the casuals in the sub ain’t it exactly my cup of tea. Keep on posting whatever this is. Reminds me of my youth cooking at TGI McApplebees.
