Some kitchen gadgets can be useful. Most are bullshit.

In my personal opinion runny eggs are for dipping bread and meat. The longer you cook them the less they mesh with other ingredients amd become their own thing. Nobody is getting two runny eggs without other things on the plate. But you might add scrambled eggs to another breakfast plate. Idk. Breakfast is easily the best type of food.. im just not a morning person. Tm I will be cooking breakfast. Sadly.


Breakfast for supper is one of my faves.
And yes youre right, the runny yolk is for my hashbrowns and sausage and toast to dip.

I brought back some photos from his insta. I think its safe to say that we actually can afford to go to a low grade bistro and get an over cooked salmon with some french fries.

Typical line cook behavior. think they are a gift from god. Try walking into a restaurant in a real city. they will eat you alive.

i assume you live in some podunk town outside dallas or in the ghetto in georgia or something. idk what kind of "millionaires" would pay for this . these are the entrees you can see at any pub style restaurant with steel bar stools, playing hey-ho-stomp-clap music and 16 year old javier on the fryer

tbh i'd rather have that food than the fancy super expensive shit where all the food is "art". Fuck what it looks like, as long as it tastes good. That's all that matters.

That was a decade ago or more. I cant even see those tiny ass pics tbh let me get my glasses. Looks like chili and jalapeño corn bread. Country club. Spinach artichoke pretzel with Alfredo dip. Hotel. Oh the salmon is a play on fish and chips pretty sure. Country club. Obviously a BBQ burger with pulled pork and bacon. Country club. The other fish is barramundi over Asian greens. Cant be certain where I cooked that.

On the wellness of the fish. Old rich white people like everything well done. I imagine it is because they are depression era people and are used to eating and cooking past prime ingedients

/e the country club was definitely public. 20 dollar burger and fries isnt bad. You were likely 12 in 2012 though so maybe you couldn't have afforded it :/

I 100% prefer Sunnyside BUT only if the cook doesnt suck and actually steams the top. When I order Sunnyside and then you get raw egg white on top its blech. Slimy bullshit.





How come you never bring me breakfast in bed hm?


Why the f would I stay the night?
I just take the money from the nightstand as you were put to bed

In 2012 I was 23 and running 2 kitchens at a lake resort.
You think I can't afford your cooking? This is what I do for PRIVATE guests. You literally can not get a reservation. Word of mouth only. And cooking isn't my day job. I left the kitchen in 2013ish. Did events, bar management, became a certified sommelier. I've done michelin, I've done Forbes. I didn't go to culinary school I started in the dish pit. This is the difference between passion and a pay check employee. I'm not trying to pick on you or compare, im just saying humble the fuck up you are nothing special. You're a trade cook not a professional.
I don't have a boss. I consult for restaurants and casinos when I get a call because someone heard about me. I get 1099'd. I call the shots. I'm the boss. You're not that guy. You'll never be that guy
