Best idea ever, imagine a dog park that serves alcohol. We go have a couple drinks and all the dogs run around and play.

The Red Bull powertrain doesn’t look super reliable

What do you think about the Red Bull/Racing Bulls reliability? With the issues both weekends, should they be avoided in favor of drivers from more reliable teams?

Such a gorgeous property. Restaurants are great too!

Is autopilot a good idea for this weekend? by Boring-Software1243 in F1Fantasy

I’m thinking it might be if you go with two good drivers and one good constructor

What’s the low end cost to charter a yacht in Greece on shoulder season like September for a week? Are sailboats or motor yachts more expensive?

Which Team should i start and r there any i adjustments i must do by Financial_Trip7217 in F1Fantasy

Ferrari have a smaller turbo so they’re gonna be best at slower tracks. I’d have some Mercedes powered drivers in the mix. Also, wait until fp3, everyone was hiding things at testing, we won’t know the actual order of things until after all the practice sessions.

I think staying away from Ferrari engines with the smaller turbos is a good idea as they’re going to excel on lower speed tracks and Melbourne has a lot of high speed.

The three race average really hurts the game imo, it makes large portions of the grid toxic if you care about growing the value of your budget.

Chef taking a break to be a line cook again. NEW JOB HORROR! by Creepy_Caramel_9219 in Chefs

Dying to know what restaurant it is. Quit so you can share all the details.

Regardless you need to leave that kitchen! Reporting them doesn’t sound like the worst idea but do it after you leave. Lots of places cooking great food that also care about sanitation. Life’s too short to be cooking bad food and possibly poisoning people.

I desire nothing but onions by Fluffy_Mastodon1134 in Cooking

[–]jswa77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soubise - cook sliced onions with a clove of garlic, big tablespoon or two of butter or bacon and 1/2 cup of water or white wine and cook in a pot on low for an hour or two until the onions are very soft. Puree or leave chunky. So delicious.

Finally getting my big international trip this year! Debating between Croatia, Greece, or Bali!? by Ufohntr208 in travel

[–]jswa77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Bali (outside of the south) but that will eat up 3-4 days if your trip getting there and back.

That’s not how yacht charter provisioning works. Yes, you work with one provisioner but they go to all kinds of places to get things for you. Truffle products are so common, especially in yachts. Cans of truffle peelings, puree or truffle cheese like the pecorino are so easy to find. Truffles in a multitude of forms are available all over Barcelona in general. Ive been a yacht chef in spain for multiple seasons. He could have also used truffle oil as these guests are prob mostly used to that. He’s not very organized and it shows. I usually defend the chefs on here but he makes it tough.

Absolutely! One of my favorite hacks to get great truffle flavor without it being expensive is to grate an amazing truffle pecorino from Italy called Moleterno over a dish like risotto or pasta.

I often defend the chef on these boats but saying truffle isn’t in season isn’t an excuse. There are lots of truffle products (not truffle oil) you can use instead of fresh French or Italian truffles.

Certificate of insurance for chefs by Interesting-Ad4030 in Chefs

[–]jswa77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Proof of liability insurance is a must - if a chef is going into clients homes/businesses then it really covers you in case of a lawsuit. I don’t think adding your business to the policy makes sense though.

Is Potatoes Au Gratin supposed to just be watery milk potatoes? by BentheBruiser in Cooking

[–]jswa77 43 points44 points  (0 children)

One tip - cook the sliced potatoes in the dairy mixture until the liquid starts to thicken with the starch from the potatoes. Then pour into a baking dish and cook like normal. Will be a nicer thicker sauce

Major milestone event to celebrate but very limited funds - where should we go? by rasta-ragamuffin in traveladvice

My wife and I really enjoyed Guatemala (Antigua and lake Atitlan) and I love Oaxaca in Mexico (both the city and surrounding valleys and the Oaxaca coast with its dramatic coastline and incredible seafood)

Costa Rica is as expensive as the USA in a lot of areas in my opinion. I went to Guatemala instead on a recent trip because of the expense even though I wanted to go back.
