Food Thread: Battle of the Menus • Page 4

i laughed way too hard at my own shitty joke menu making it's way into the OP

 

Phew. Finally caught up. Now I can go back and read through everyone else's menus.

Everyone who has submitted a menu should be in the main post.

I even put @electro haikus out of spite.

 

I got you boo.

 

Yeah what the fuck? Mine didn’t even make it!

 

Wait, seriously? Did I miss yours? I just went back through the thread again and didn't see it.

Or do you just want a cosign on @electro haikus menu?

 

Updated first post with your menu.

 

Haha it’s all good mine was a joke too. It was
1. Chef’s surprise
2. Water
3. All alcohols

 

Updated.

 

I'm gonna pick one thing from every section. You have too many good options.

The ceviche because I intensely dislike truffle oil. Also because I love Ahi.
The blue cheese wedge.
For small plates, I'm taking the rotri prata and the duck confit poutine. Both sound ridiculously good.
I want the hatch green chile stew or the yellowfin tuna tacos.

What's Char Siu pork? I've never had it but it sounds interesting.

 

I'm sure you've seen it before if you've ever been to any major Chinatown in the country.

It's a Chinese way of barbecuing pork that leaves the outside this insane, bright red color.

 

Yes. yes. I'll have an order of that too please.

 

Also, thanks!

I am constantly impressed by all of you. I thought for sure everyone would need a couple days at least to come up with their menus but so many people were ready in a day. And everyone else's restaurant is so put together. Mine was just a hot mess because I was like fuck, how did everyone else finish so quickly. So there's no cohesion. Just noms.

 

Mine has 0 cohesion... you'll see haha

 

Also, I'd eat the Migas from your "with egg" section

 

fuck

 

my menu needs more pork

 

The world needs more pork

 

Thanks.

I was thinking of adding peatzuh to the menu, if you happen to edit the post again.

 

Got you.

 

@SEANoftheDEAD

the Reuben Egg Rolls, Jaeger schnitzel, and Mexican Lasagna are genius

The Mexican Lasagna. I think I'm gonna have to actually try or make that. Have you made it before!? Which kind of enchilada sauce?

Bacon mushroom gravy sounds amazing. I wish German food was more more prominent here.

I love peach and habanero together soooo much

I love a good undercooked brownie with ice cream. Bourbon should set that over the top

 

change the mayo on my green chile sliders to garlic aioli plz

 

i already did!

 

thank you! I'm excited to see you select menu items of ours!

 

@Ken

I'm so interested in the implications of mixing raw ingredients like root vegetables with other veggies or fruits. That's the most interesting to me about the more recent experimental restaraunts with Michelin stars. New Nordic cuisine is one that fascinates me. I want to experience it. They're burning moss on reindeer heart over there.

I see you have a wasabi guacamole mousse and a horseradish sorbet. Massively interested in those kind of ideas for new flavors and as texture almost just as importantly.

With my lobster over charred coconut and raw raddish I'm trying to explore that. My hope is that the coconut gets candied and has a vaguely burnt taste then the savoryness of the beef fat flavor mixes with it and the radish sharply cuts through all that. I hope it wouldn't turn into hackery in practice.
