Some places have mayo, why no ketchup?

Are you dropping off some dipping custard? How thoughtful

I think it would go well with mango ice cream

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !foodcrimes@midwest.social

The mlem app (or maybe my phone) takes me to the mail when I click these types of link, and I am actually wondering what will happen if I send a mail to the address

I’ve seen this in real life.
We were having a company dinner at a REALLY fancy place. They were advertisers in our paper. So, the chef had prepared a nice six course meal for the group.
Some colleagues are definitely more McD’s guests rather than fancy restaurants.
Three courses in, here comes a steak and gourmet fries to garnish. Colleague goes hog wild, dumps a bunch of fries on his plate and waves over the waitress. “Hey, do you have a bottle of ketchup?” The look she gave him was one of utter shock. “I, uh, wow, uhm… I’ll check”.
She eventually came back with a bottle, but I was sure the chef would have chased my colleague around with a kitchen knife if he’d heard of the request. That dude was intense.

REALLY fancy place
Steak and fries
🤨
devious@lemmy.world 9 months ago
There are “fancy” (and of course expensive) places that specialise in high end cuts of meat - that serve fries as a standard side option.
FinishingDutch@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Steak and fries is a restaurant staple, even if you go really expensive. This place serves 200 euro plus Wagyu cuts, for reference. And it was sublime.
The fries were ‘gourmet’ fries. Basically, you get like a ramekin of fries, which are mostly meant as garnish. It’s not like a full plate of fries.
My colleague liked them so much he did ask for extra fries, which got a mild frown from the waitress.

It’s different if you’re choosing to go somewhere fancy and pay for something expensive and then negate the fanciness, but for a free work meal I’m going to give your colleague the benefit of the doubt and assume they know what they like. Don’t gatekeep food, who gives a shit what other people like?
FinishingDutch@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Oh don’t get me wrong, it was wildly entertaining. I’m more of a cheap pizza guy anyway. Our other work dinners were at a local steak restaurant which was much more everyone’s vibe.
Still, it was hilarious to see someone order ketchup with a 200 euro wagyu cut, prior to having tasted the thing. (Pure perfection, best steak ever)

Have an extremely angry upvote. I don’t even like raw fish and this pisses me off. And I’m also craving an eel roll. Anyone know a good sushi restaurant in Minneapolis?
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Don’t know any sushi place in Minneapolis that has ketchup 0/10

Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 9 months ago
That gives me an idea for an invention. Hollow chopsticks so you can pump ketchup onto your sushi as you eat it. You could even stab it into it and do a ketchup injection!
I wonder if wasabi ketchup is a thing…
woodenskewer@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Wasabi ketchup would just be DIY shrimp cocktail sauce with a green tint.
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 9 months ago
I actually have both wasabi and ketchup. I can try making some.

That’s nothing. I know a girl that asked a waiter to heat up her salmorejo in a microwave. The waiter said no. It wasn’t even a fancy place, just a normal bar. There are some things you just don’t do.

I like the ones on the left with the BBQ sauce on it.
AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 9 months ago
That’s probably eel sauce. Some sushi rolls are prepped with that stuff

See, while this might be considered not-done, I think they get to decide how they like to eat their food. Even if it offends the rest of us greatly (which it does).
Maggoty@lemmy.world 9 months ago
While true. God help them if the chef sees.

Meh…
I mean most sweet and sour sauces are primarily a fruit, sugar, vinegar and a thickener… which pretty similar to ketchup. And those are considered okay to put on sushi.
AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Sweet same sour sauce? No.
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 9 months ago
I would honestly put ketchup in sushi before I put sweet and sour sauce in there. And I wouldn’t.
tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 9 months ago
A regular tare sauce has sugar in it, and you can find the sweeter version (amadare) at sushi places. However, it’s really only used for the eel (anago).
But I mean they make a ketchup spaghetti in Japan so if someone wants to talk about fucking with traditional dishes…
amio@kbin.social 9 months ago
No, they aren't? Where?
I mean, obviously you put whatever you want on yours no matter how much of a blatant crime against the universe it is, but "traditionally" that's not a thing. Takeaway shops do love their chili mayo though.
