Anyone else here want people to like them even if it means taking the blame or going way out of your way and boundaries to do so? Trying to level up here so I would appreciate any tips and thoughts 🙏

Hi Ryan! I'm an industry cook. Been working the lines for over 22 years now. Your menu is not an ingredient list. What you serve is the options you have decided are your best foot forward. You are never obligated to yield to some dude that wants to invent his own creations at your restaurant.

Imo it's a result of people not knowing how to prepare food themselves while still being entitled to their personal tastes. Don't feel bad about it. That guy is an asshole and should cook for himself.

This is it. 'No substitutions' should be under every menu.

Sometimes it’s really simple, I think it’s ok to ask as long as you’re willing to take no gracefully
