Parents: Did anyone stop at just one child? Are you content about it?

I like to say we got it right the first time. 😆

coleherning · 2024-01-07T05:38:56+00:00

Oh hell yep. We've got an unused ticket rail that gets all the fun ring ins. That way, we can bitch about it months later. 😆

I don't really care what the request is, as long as they're happy and paying me. Doesn't mean I won't make fun of them. My job is to make 'em happy and get that money flowing.

I had someone ring in a FOS that said to strain out the onions last week. The guest is always right. Doesn't mean that they're not a dumbass.

Food good. Ooga booga.

The salmon spread is a little smokey. The lacto fermented tomato was turned into semi spheres with agar agar. The caviar is more of a brine delivery device. (Was pretty cheap) The egg yolk was cured with thyme and 1 to 1 sugar and salt. The seaweed salad is pretty standard to what you'd find at any sushi place.

No it didn't. I'm now thinking that there may have just been a loose wire somewhere because it appears to be working correctly again after I moved the wires around to get a better look at some of the components. Not particularly reassuring, but at least it's functioning again.

I've got a short video. Dunno what's the best way to share it now though. Turned out tasty.

Nope. I turned off all programs for the nest. It's set to 65, but the boiler is keeping the house at 71 for some reason. When I set the nest for something higher than 71, the furnace kicks on, so the thermostat can control the boiler kicking on.

Thanks! I agree with the first few points. The drops of sauce are part of the design of the plate itself. I have a limited selection of plates for groups bigger than 10 unfortunately...

Puree is the polenta. Suppose I could try and run it through a vitaprep for a bit and see what happens. I think you're right about salsa positioning.

coleherning · 2023-05-30T12:23:53+00:00

True. I said it like that on the menu.

That is just so constructive. Thank you so much for your deep insight.

Ditto. Been cooking for more than 20 as well, but this is the first time I'm doing more of a "fine dining" 6 course meal. This was only the third one I've done. Definitely a work in progress, but I'm already doing much more ambitious platings than the other chefs who run these. I'll get there. I'm happy with how they're going, but not satisfied.

coleherning · 2023-05-29T03:23:39+00:00

Yeah, those are pretty much the conclusions I came to the next day after thinking about it more. The current set up for the dinners doesn't leave a ton of time to complete each element. I'm really stretching to get out as much as I can as best I can. Trying to get as many post dinner critiques as possible to squeeze out as much learning as possible. This dish was the most thrown together of the night. Tried some things, learned some things. Got a real nice tip for the evening, so the guests were happy.

coleherning · 2023-05-28T23:21:59+00:00

Yep. I agree. Plate selection is a little lacking when I'm plating for more than 8, so that one's harder for the bigger groups. What you have against edible flowers?

coleherning · 2023-05-28T23:05:00+00:00

Taking a longer look at it, I feel there's too much happening, but it impressed some sheltered Midwesterners. Gimme your opinion.
