How fucking hard is it to completely screw up a fucking club sandwich?

Just put some fucking lettuce and bacon and chicken and tomatoes dammit.

I don't need it drenched in fucking dijon apple sauce or whatever stupid innovation you want to put because a simple club sandwich is too beneath you.

And stop looking at me like a fucking pleb because I ordered a coke instead of red wine

For fucks sake

*melts down*

Yeah, this drives me crazy. I know some people like the atmosphere, or whatever, but give me a cozy, local pub and a greasy burger any day.

Because no one goes for the food, they go to be seen there so that people know how much money they can afford to spend on a meal.

Shut up dammit.

I had no fucking clue what anything else on the menu was, so I saw "club sandwich," which is my go-to thing to order when I don't know what anything else is.

Yah sure it looked a bit different from regular, but I didn't expect them to fuck it up so badly.

The bread was so wet and soggy too. Fucking disgusting. Blech. Horrifying.

So I guess two things?

1. It's a hotel restaurant, those are always more expensive. I've paid $30 for a lasagna on a work trip.

2. Sounds like they're sourcing a lot locally which can also be more expensive because you're not paying commercial pricing.

He's saying ground chuck burgers are some sort of quality food for a high end restaurant. Ground chuck is literally garbage ground beef they couldn't sell as lean or very lean. I don't think he really has a leg to stand on here.

Exactly. It's just a burger, and the trout is just fish. Just because it's nicer and more expensive than Chili's doesn't make it high end or "fancy."

man, i love how dismissive everybody is of high-end dining

it's like, wow, maybe some people are just more into food than you and can appreciate its finer aspects (without being ostentatious dickheads, which you guys make seem mandatory or something)

you know, kinda like how some of you guys are probably hella into graphics cards or other computer parts or whatever, and not because you're trying to impress your fellow nerd friends when you buy these things, but because you actually care about details most people aren't even aware of

I'm into food and love to cook. My job literally is in a high end meat department cutting and preparing expensive cuts of meat. However, fancy place settings and dolled up wait staff taking reservations for months has absolutely no bearing on the quality of the food they serve.

I mean, sure, some people may appreciate the atmosphere more than me, and that's fine, but let's not pretend that just making something expensive means it instantly his 'higher quality'.

To add into this. I love high end resturant but ones that have a good menu. Too many places attempt to pass off basic food for crazy prices. There are some amazing restaurants though where I'm completely happy to spend the $100+ on a meal for my wife and I.

Absolutely. I should probably clarify that I'm not saying all high-end restaurants are bad, just that them being high-end does not immediately imply they have good food. Personally, my tastes lean more to the cozy, local hole in the wall, but I recognize that's almost entirely preference.

Since when is a hotel restaurant considered high class?

Also that sandwich sounds good. Im gluten intolerant but the next time my sister and I are in Toronto Im going to convince her to order one and she can tell me if its good or not.

If you arent sure what something is on the menu, ask the waiter or google image it. We all cant know everything, though it is a little bit weird that you dont even know what veggie wraps are. Also, if you want a basic club sandwich but the restaurant has other stuff in it, just tell them not to put those things. No restaurant will give you a hard time about leaving things out, because for all they know, you have an allergy. Or just ask them if they can make a sandwich with what you want in it. Worst they could say is no.

Are you this ignorant or what lol

Also how hard is it to read the menu or ask the waiter wtf is inside of what you're ordering?

Is this topic real?
