The umbrellas make me feel like this wasn’t the first time this happened.

I thought the fire marshal checked the sprinkler system

The glove on only one hand and him using both hands to touch the raw meat….

Why the glove if you’re barehanding with the other?

Restaurant wasn’t the only thing to get fired that day, I’d bet.

Literally my first thought was “how is this not triggering their fire suppression system?”

I’m struggling to understand what in the fuck was going on in the first place. Was he tipping a pan of fat on the slabs of raw meat to cook it? Why was there a bone? Who portioned those steaks so he had to pull them apart by hand in the first place? And with one gloved and one ungloved hand?

Bet that tinfoil was perfectly crispy and delicious after.
Everyone would have been happier if they’d just used a dang Hibachi here. Was there an overall plan?

So much to unpack here, time for a drink

Everything about this is just ridiculous.

Just give me my food. If I want dinner and a show, I’ll go to Waffle House when the bars close.

Just… cook it in the fucking back under the hood and take the stress off of me and you..

I fucking hate table side service

can anyone tell me what the fuck is going on with that tinfoil? was that going to be my tableside cooking surface? are there thinly sliced potatoes under there? of all the wildly stupid shit going on here, that’s the standout for me.
Goddam that was so boring. Who would enjoy watching this guy do this? He seemed unhappy, and 4 people were tending to him.

This would have been stupid even if it had worked.

Foods actually worth doing tableside: Bananas Foster, Crêpes Suzette, Baked Alaska, carving of Peking Duck… end of list. Consequently I have never seen any of these dishes result in this nonsense. Also Caesar salad was never worth doing table side, tradition be damned.

this just validates one of my absolute biggest overall cooking & food prep principles which is that the presentation should *never* come before the taste

Me: “Hi waiter! I’d like the Manufactured Tomahawk please.
Server: “Would you like that finished with aged sprinkler water?”
“Of course!”

Probably gonna get down voted for this, but there is absolutely no reason any place should be prepping/cooking this way.. lmao they think it’s fancy and unique but it’s just stupid looking and overly expensive on top of being dangerous.

They are intentionally starting an oil fire in the dining area. These people are not chefs, they are clowns.

Excuse me, I ordered my steak Pittsburghed, not Seattled!!!!!

When the perpetrating chef was walking away and he looked around for a second, I can almost hear the cliche, “My work here is done.” as he exited stage right.

Looks like clown school.

One glove. That is the raw meat hand. I knew from the beginning this setup was fucked but if you have one gloved hand and touch the meat with your bare ass hand at table you fucking deserve this. Jesus Christo.

Now they’ve got non-potable gray water all over the entire restaurant.
This is going to cost a ton of money getting everything to not smell like a swamp.

“What’s is he DOING?!”
Staff just standing around chanting “the roof, the roof, the roof is on fire…”
Let this be a lesson: table side bullshit is ridiculous.
And from that day forward… table side cooking was no more and all of the cooks cheered
this belongs to r/stupidfood
Just cook the food in the kitchen and give it to me on a plate ffs
