We were having a company dinner at a REALLY fancy place. They were advertisers in our paper. So, the chef had prepared a nice six course meal for the group.
Some colleagues are definitely more McD’s guests rather than fancy restaurants.
Three courses in, here comes a steak and gourmet fries to garnish. Colleague goes hog wild, dumps a bunch of fries on his plate and waves over the waitress. “Hey, do you have a bottle of ketchup? For on the steak?” The look she gave him was one of utter shock. “I, uh, wow, uhm… I’ll check”.
She eventually came back with a bottle, but I was sure the chef would have chased my colleague around with a kitchen knife if he’d heard of the request. That dude was intense.
Steak and fries is a restaurant staple, even if you go really expensive. This place serves 200 euro plus Wagyu cuts, for reference. And it was sublime.
The fries were ‘gourmet’ fries. Basically, you get like a ramekin of fries, which are mostly meant as garnish. It’s not like a full plate of fries.
My colleague liked them so much he did ask for extra fries, which got a mild frown from the waitress.
It's different if you're choosing to go somewhere fancy and pay for something expensive and then negate the fanciness, but for a free work meal I'm going to give your colleague the benefit of the doubt and assume they know what they like. Don't gatekeep food, who gives a shit what other people like?
Oh don’t get me wrong, it was wildly entertaining. I’m more of a cheap pizza guy anyway. Our other work dinners were at a local steak restaurant which was much more everyone’s vibe.
Still, it was hilarious to see someone order ketchup with a 200 euro wagyu cut, prior to having tasted the thing. (Pure perfection, best steak ever)
Well, that was the price on the menu, but not what we paid :D
As mentioned, the restaurant was one of our advertisers. We helped them plan their media campaign, did the printed menu’s, few other promotional things like that. So the owner/chef invited us to basically dine ‘at cost’ as a thank you. He also planned the six course meal for the entire group so he could cook stuff that he wanted to show off.
So basically… we got an expensive restaurant at a cheap restaurant price. Our company also had about 10 people, so it wasn’t too extravagant.
Have an extremely angry upvote. I don't even like raw fish and this pisses me off. And I'm also craving an eel roll. Anyone know a good sushi restaurant in Minneapolis?
That gives me an idea for an invention. Hollow chopsticks so you can pump ketchup onto your sushi as you eat it. You could even stab it into it and do a ketchup injection!
That's nothing. I know a girl that asked a waiter to heat up her salmorejo in a microwave. The waiter said no. It wasn't even a fancy place, just a normal bar. There are some things you just don't do.
See, while this might be considered not-done, I think they get to decide how they like to eat their food. Even if it offends the rest of us greatly (which it does).
I mean most sweet and sour sauces are primarily a fruit, sugar, vinegar and a thickener... which pretty similar to ketchup. And those are considered okay to put on sushi.
For a lot of sushi, the chefs will be disappointed in you even for putting soy sauce on it. They craft it to have a specific combination of flavors, and strong sauces just obliterate them.
A regular tare sauce has sugar in it, and you can find the sweeter version (amadare) at sushi places. However, it's really only used for the eel (anago).
But I mean they make a ketchup spaghetti in Japan so if someone wants to talk about fucking with traditional dishes...
I mean, obviously you put whatever you want on yours no matter how much of a blatant crime against the universe it is, but "traditionally" that's not a thing. Takeaway shops do love their chili mayo though.
Thats a take away box. You're safely at home and not in a public place, soon to be beaten to death.
I just like eating from a takeaway box. The environmental impact makes me happy inside.
This should be the exception to the "no cruel and unusual punishment" rule
Some places have mayo, why no ketchup?
Can you drop me your home address? I just want to talk real quick
I just wanna talk to him.
I just wanna talk to him.
I just wanna talk to him.
I just wanna shoot him.
I just wanna talk to him.
God I miss classic family guy.
Same. At least we have Futurama back.
Are you dropping off some dipping custard? How thoughtful
I think it would go well with mango ice cream

Report the bug to mlem. I presume they have a community so you can do so on lemmy
I’ve seen this in real life.

🤨
There are "fancy" (and of course expensive) places that specialise in high end cuts of meat - that serve fries as a standard side option.

€200 for a single steak, paid for by the company? Man, that is a whole order of magnitude fancier than I was expecting!

Fair, that makes sense. I still admire the chaos monkey energy of your ketchup colleague though!
Oh fuuuuuuck you
It's a terrible day to have eyes.

Don't know any sushi place in Minneapolis that has ketchup 0/10
I think I knew one in 2003
Deserved revenge for the fact that the Japanese put ketchup in spaghetti.
Swedish staple dish right here.
Looks pretty heave g-good, Sweden...
Spaghetti with minced meat sauce and ketchup om nom nom
That actually sounds nice. I want.
I'm gonna eat it today.
Hmm maybe I should go to Sweden so I can eat it too 🤔
That's nothing.
Yes, there's gold on it.
With your hands, probably
3 minutes *fast" pasta right?
😭
This one does not spark joy.
Right you are, Marie Condiment!
That gives me an idea for an invention. Hollow chopsticks so you can pump ketchup onto your sushi as you eat it. You could even stab it into it and do a ketchup injection!
I wonder if wasabi ketchup is a thing...
Wasabi ketchup would just be DIY shrimp cocktail sauce with a green tint.
I actually have both wasabi and ketchup. I can try making some.
For science!
I've seen ketchup injected fries before.
I think we already have it, it call straw. You can use iron straw as chopsticks
You will die alone and forgotten, disgraced by history. 13 curses upon you.
13 is my lucky number!
🤢🤢🤢🤮
This person is going to be on the news some day, sliced in half by a katana-wielding chef.
That's nothing. I know a girl that asked a waiter to heat up her salmorejo in a microwave. The waiter said no. It wasn't even a fancy place, just a normal bar. There are some things you just don't do.
also works with pizza restaurants in Italy
And steakhouses in Texas also love this trick!

While true. God help them if the chef sees.
Mexico Approved(r)
That's the only thing that matters, honestly!
The verdict is death.
Not until the diabetes kicks in

I like the ones on the left with the BBQ sauce on it.
That's probably eel sauce. Some sushi rolls are prepped with that stuff
Should've used catsup instead.
That could lead to quite the conundrum
NO
You know what? Fuck it, 6 more years of 2020.
Did that guy from bash.org ever created that device?
Perfection.
Finally, someone gets it!
You are in mortal danger
Meh...

Sweet and sour sauce? No.
I would honestly put ketchup in sushi before I put sweet and sour sauce in there. And I wouldn't.
For a lot of sushi, the chefs will be disappointed in you even for putting soy sauce on it. They craft it to have a specific combination of flavors, and strong sauces just obliterate them.
Yeah. If it's served with soy sauce you use it, if not you assume it's not needed.
Yeah, the complex and mercurial task of combining fish and carbs. The masters of the palate.
They studied 10k hours to learn how to pick the raw fish with just the right amount of parasites, for flavor and crunch!

And KFC Daddy is Santa there... They like to mix it up
No, they aren't? Where?
