So many of my service industry friends act like I don't have a real job because I am In a office. I blame Anthony bourdain.


The whole "every chef is a celebrity or artist" bullshite is starting to grind my gears. Went to a pop up a while back and had to listen to some tatted up indy chef explain what he was cooking for about 20 minutes before i could eat. I kept going for the fork, and my wife would tell me "he's not done yet". I get it, you think your food is special. But listing out every single ingredient in each of your 12 courses is unnecessary.

Also, locally sourced. I'd like to know exactly how they are locally sourcing their ingredients. If they are going to the closest Rouse's or Winn Dixie to get their "locally sourced" ingredients, then they are full of shite.

Agree with this to a certain extent. Especially after being tangentially involved in a restaurant up here. Had a chef pull a diva routine because of good word of mouth and reviews. It was decided that he could put his own money at stake and continue to do so or pull the diva routine somewhere else. His replacement is much more down to earth.

underbelly in Houston is really bad about this. I loved the food and all but the waiter would not shut up. Just put my order in let me talk to my brother

My inner lucille bluth comes out when they do they do that.
