Whoever thought about this has never eaten onion rings
Went to a new spot near me, almost didn’t go in because of how incredibly dead it was.
Sat at the bar, vibes immediately off- knew quickly I was in for some mid food meant for instagram.
Then the $10 onion ring tree showed up.

If you’re gonna give me plastic ramekins for my sauce, just put the damn onion rings in a paper lined basket

I’m an onion rings enjoyer and wouldn’t have a problem with this. What’s the issue? crumbs getting on the table?

I love food presentations that expedite the dish getting fucking cold

For an appetizer that is shared, this is a perfectly acceptable approach, as long as they give each person a small plate as well. (Which every place I’ve ever seen who serves like this does.)
No worse than a basket like other places do, and honestly, this is one of the few times serving them on a plate is a bad idea, since they’d slide all around and sit in pools of their own grease.

Ok with the non-plating. Not OK with almost a buck a ring.

Phewwww “mid food meant for Instagram”. I struggle to explain to my friends this exact vibe and why I’m not going somewhere based off a flashy tiktok/ig reel/pretty pics with NO mention of how anything tastes.

I hate it because it guarantees they’ll be cold

I don’t like it but only because I feel like restaurants that bother with this upcharge their onion rings vs ones that plate normally. Presentation is nice but I don’t need it for my degenerate foods.

What’s wrong with that?
This is so common I see it a lot
