re: Red Lobster goes vertical on plate to push quality. Wants to be Fine Dinning

I read that yesterday. No plans to change recipes or anything.. just stack food. I feel like this would be a great time to point out that if you are stacking my food on a mushy mashed potato, I'm pissed.
Also, in the Reddit thread that posted this, people who used to work at Red Lobster were mentioning how Red Lobster actually attempted a "fresh fish" menu. It was lighter broiled fish that was decent quality (supposedly). But no one ordered it and it went to waste.
90% of RL's food is fried because that's what people want and what they order.
I am unsure how stacking fried coconut shrimp is going to look "fine dining," but I guess we'll see.

I'd believe that. Like you said, people aren't going to RL to eat fresh seafood. They want biscuits and fried platters.
I'm not even sure how much lobster they actually sell when compared to the fried stuff.

Not at the one I worked at a few years ago. We seemed to sell a lot of it. Also it was more than just broiled. You could also get most of the fish grilled, blackened, or fried (although we were supposed to advise against frying most of the fresh fish).

No it's not. Sure they sell a lot of things like popcorn shrimp that is fried, but it is nowhere near 90%.
And for the record I rarely ate there before I worked there and have only eaten there once since I left. Never have been a big seafood fan, but money is money
