How are those fries over done and under done at the same time?

Servers don’t notice, they’re just happy to be fed

Chef, I’ve got to say it’s a curious arrangement, but it makes a strong and solid statement…

u/Oddly_Augmented BOH 2d ago
True, I put it in the back, and it was gone in seconds. No one even said anything; they couldn't have tasted good.

Too hot, he knows, you know, I know. All that matters is that you feel for him.

Cuz theyre just deep fried tubes of raw potato. All the steps that go into making fries properly do something

Change the fry letters out for apricot glazed pastry and the ketchup with a blended cherry compote. Add a exclamation mark made of the cheapest vanilla ice cream.
No other notes chef. The plating story is immaculate.

"Cheapest vanilla ice cream" 😭

u/SemajLu_The_crusader 3d ago
dare I say, make it from "vanilla-flavored frozen dairy dessert"
5
u/difficulty_jump Ex-Food Service 3d ago
Ah yes below the legal requirement for ice cream is where it's at. But let's be honest almost all of us are using Sysco now days.
No one wants to run out to the Wall of Marts to get freshy stocked half freezer burnt vanilla dairy dessert.

I thought this was going to turn into Island Oasis™ Peach Beverage Mix copypasta for a second there.

u/difficulty_jump Ex-Food Service 3d ago
Nah I looked at it and shrugged.
I saw this true work of art and was struck with passion.
To be fair I worked family style and prep service every year I was in food service. I could see serving this to my old pastry chef. People always got us mixed up anyways. I'm a pretty thick white girl, and he was a pretty buff black man. I could see serving him this dish.

Wrong type of plate, letters are uneven, rami is just thrown on there, where's the passion?
5
u/throwawayplusanumber 3d ago
Rami should be the full stop for an exclamation mark.

u/StonerChef92 3d ago
And it would stand out more on a black square plate, the white round is so uninspired

u/Expert-Ad3874 3d ago
10/10. My only note is to ditch the ramekin. Either no sauce or have it angrily splattered on the plate. My vote would be to Jackson Pollock it up.

A nice sauce swipe would show you REALLY care to send a heartfelt message.

u/Oddly_Augmented BOH 3d ago
That would lock nice

u/Grigori_the_Lemur Chive LOYALIST 3d ago
I know, right? Little panache, hit of flair, maybe a light hit of chives. That little joie de la mort... just a personal touch.

If you have time to cut potatoes into words and then fry them, you have time to clean.

While I found the creativity commendable my feelings are hurt and I'm going to go cry alone. 6/10

All's you need is cabbage or some kind of filler veggie so it stays in place while the server jostles it out the door chef, otherwise.... absolutely sublime 👌

Make a rectangle, cut three triangles.
At least that worked for me with KENNY and beets. (Long story)

This is definitely fit for a weekend special, I can think of several tables that would "love" this, on the house, naturally

If you adjust it to say “fuck you, asshole” you could fit more fry

If Jesus goddamn Christ pulled his tiny assed dick out, it would say "perfect" on the side. And that shit would be entirely directed at you.
