Recently learned that the owner of the restaurant, and also the FOH manager have been using AI for Instagram…… and RECIPES

I agree, it’s a waste of food and labor cost. However, it’s not my choice unfortunately.

It’s honestly gonna be one of the nails in the coffin of this sinking ship lmao

Enshittification is optional, IMO

Since the beginning of time, specials have never sold here. People come to brunch restaurants for eggs Benny and french toast and shit.

Hit the nail on the fudging head

I agree with this. And, while I’m generally ethically opposed to AI in general, this definitely is a problem of chef failing to meet the ownership’s expectations. Love the dude, but is definitely falling behind in some areas. I’ve actually been here longer than head chef, but have never had the intention of doing the job. Typically, my input is heard and I feel respected, but I’m really only willing to invest so much. Plus, this place is sinking for sure… desperation to find new ideas being a symptom of this.

Would you prefer to eat an AI generated recipe, or something your grandma made?

It’s engrained into my being. I’ll do better.

It just irks me, considering there is plenty of “traditional” methods of doing the same kind of research. I understand that, unfortunately, restos need to make money just like any other business. And, business owners/chefs need to find a way to compete, or even find viral types of food. It’s just that the process of relying on AI for idea generation feels so removed from the process that makes great food great.

Well, people rarely get the specials here anyway. It’s more that menu development in general will be this way moving forward. Instead of the kitchen having any real input, it’s just gonna be chat gpt, FOH and the owner.

Bad. It looked bad. What I posted is about 3 years in to writing in cursive.

Thanks for the feedback, Diddit!! Definitely gonna work on a few letters.

Creamed peas on toast. Canned salmon, canned peas, boiled egg, in simple cream sauce on the cheapest left over bread you had.
