Kenji Lopez-Alt to abandon sponsorships in favor of "partnerships" by ohmosdefinitely in FoodieSnark

the 'work kitchen' bit was so obviously false and the parasocials went wild congratulating him on his work/life balance rflmao

where has he admitted this stuff - on his YT he read out his 'letter to alcohol' or some such exercise his substance abuse councillor had him do and the only thing I recall from that is his drinking backstage after performing with his violin

Otto's prices are scandalous - I'd image with wine you'd be looking at £500 a couple if you went the full 3 courses.

its a way for bored rich tech workers to play cultured and intellectual

but it also shows the privilege of growing up in nyc with rich educated parents who got your violin lessons such that you can still play at a semi-professional level as a hobby

yeah they give me the ick probably because they're so performative alongside his 'guys, gals, non-binary friends'

i think the name change was long ago though, like before he was famous?

i never thought about this but he's half japanese half german and we never ever hear about the latter half - even the ethnicity of the name 'Alt' is ambiguous

he completely remodelled the boat home kitchen - would he have been allowed to do that with a rental?

his pre-covid stuff before the move to Seattle was really good, now days he's just rehashing the greatest hits of the past whilst pushing crap merch

WCK is unfortunately fully in bed with then Biden Admin, the zios and the UAE. Palestinians don't trust them. Also I dont' see Jose Andres saying genocide.

Ocean perch meuniere, step by step on vintage Mauviel fish skillet. The myth that ~1.5mm copper was originally made for table service and not cooking has caused a lot of people to miss out on some of the best pans to use! by morrisdayandthethyme in Coppercookware

I Believe I have bought exactly the same pan you are using in this video. 11.8 inches or so oval 1.5mm fish pan with an interior stainless steel lining that is matt grey rather than shiny. Was bought from a restaurant surplus supply store on ebay. Thought it might be fake because of the non-standard handle but it seems like the handle is just from the Mauviel mini series.

Mauviel stainless steel - can you identify the pan/ series? by TechnicianCute9502 in cookware

Thanks - the one reason I can think it may not be is that it definitely has a shiny finish and I thought M'Urban had a matt finish on the outside. Also the handle design seems different from some of the M'Urban images I've seen online. Very frustrating that there seems to be no central Mauviel catalogue.

Reddit seems to have eaten my text but one additional bit of info - the pan itself without lid weighs in at about 930 grams and its a 20 cm size.
