That's really the essence of fine dining, you know?
Shipping the inferior products halfway across the world and, successfully, convincing people that expenses incurred by shipping logistics are marks of quality.

Classical fine dining is in essence just the antiquated equivalent of the millennial penchant for 'atmosphere'

Anyone here actually a professional chef at a restaurant or are you all just frozen dino nuggets with sweet baby rays kind of morons?
I work at the best restaurant in my state.
Very stressful but I love cooking.

Lobster was once only given to slaves and servants because it was thought of as "low people food" as the lobster was a bottom-feeder.

>> No.9393212

If you're going to parrot something you might as well parrot it correctly.

It was once fed to prisoners (not slaves) in Boston because, well, they had a local surplus of lobster because they fucking catch them there. At that time there was no such thing as freezer or refrigerated transportation so they fed them to prisoners rather than throw it out before it spoiled. It was a one-time event tied to a local surplus of lobster, not an ongiong thing. And the motivation was cost, not "muh bottom feeder".

Elsewhere in the world lobster has always been an expensive luxury.

What are ingredients/dishes that you think merit being called fine cuisine or a high premium?

I don't think it has much to do with the dish. Rather it's the atmosphere of the place, and the experience as a whole.

There are some ingredients that get assocated with fine dining, like premium wines, caviar, truffles, etc. But it's not as if those things automatically imply fine dining. I once cooked Beef Wellington & served it with fancy wine in a literal trailer park. Truffles aren't necessarily "fine dining" in locations where truffles grow.

Class can be whatever you want, white fucks. You don't have to have money to be classy.

I wouldn't consider anything fine dining unless it's either the best, or near the best, example of something the region it is in is known for.

If they aren't in a situation where they can pass on ingredients for not meeting the most stringent qualifications, such as the difference between getting soft-shelled lobster in Maine as opposed to the hard-shelled lobster that gets shipped everywhere else, then they're just a pomped-up diner that found the niche of selling overpriced food to know-nothing boomers on their anniversaries.

Rare ingredients, things that are hard to grow harvest, requires a lot of technical skill to cook, perfectly balanced flavor, good plating, dining atmosphere is very upscale
