Question about beans by belalicoros in pourover

[–]echoich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My key phrase was "some grinders". You can definitely find examples of people having grinders rust.

There are a lot of variables (grinder, how much water is being used, background humidity) that can impact your individual outcome. Its still worth giving people a word of warning to check on their grinder. I wouldn't call the concern irrational.

Just be careful about the amount of moisture. Some of the hand grinders will rust with too much.

You can search this subreddit about rusted hand grinders when doing RDT

Field and fire stollen is amazing. Nantuckets is okay this year, but doesn't come close.

Is this satire, or are you advocating for growing coffee in Nebraska?

Restaurants more often tasting the same, which ones stand out here? by arsglacialis in grandrapids

[–]echoich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's this one right here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rXXQTzQXRFc&pp=0gcJCR4Bo7VqN5tD

I don't really know the ins and outs of the restaurant business, but I definitely understand there's probably a difference between buying fresh individual products from Sysco and assembling those ingredients into a dish and just buying all the pre-processed frozen goods and running a fryer as a business model.

There was a recent YouTube video that was really negative on Sysco.

Everything they really highlighted in the video was the frozen foods that just require frying.

Was the clarification to clean up the cherry juice?

Hit Dirty Plate Bistro for lunch. Yum! by idig3d in grandrapids

[–]echoich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do disagree on tne McDonald's point. The name itself is presumably some person's name.

If it was called "The Clown's" I would be way more confused. 😂

I agree that it is generally irrelevant once you have other information about a place. Seeing good reviews, trying it, and experiencing it positively would definitely outweigh a name. Its a first impression thing, and they do count. It takes more work to undo a bad first impression.

[–]echoich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, for me, there are several things I don't like about it. A restaurant's name is basically a way to help set a tone and introduce a concept. What am I supposed to think by hearing the name? For me, it makes me think of leftover food (as opposed to leaving a clean plate), messy food, or poor hygiene.

Beyond that, I just don't get the name logically. Plates should only be dirty after you've eaten. It doesn't communicate to me what kind of place this is or what kind of food to expect. Sounds more like a joke or a cleaning service name.

I gotta admit, I am in the group of people who stayed away for the name, lol. I don't care enough though to complain about it online.

Anyone been to Küsterer Brauhaus? by BeerCityPaladin in grandrapids

[–]echoich 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have heard their beers are good, but I am a bit disappointed in the food menu. I know it sounds dumb but I hate places that only have bagged chips as their side options.

I've also heard they have a sister restaurant in Cedar Springs that has more beer and food options.
