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

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.

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).

90% of RL's food is fried because that's what people want and what they order.

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
