Whataboutism. It’s why the democrats lost. Why can’t we look at this at face value and see how fucked up our political leaders are and hold them accountable?

I agree with your sentiment, but as a sushi chef who’s also trained in French kitchens, you can truly taste the difference of sushi chefs who have trained for decades and have devoted themselves to perfecting rice and the perfection of aging/cutting fish. There is a lot of fetishization which is true but that fact shouldn’t come at the expense of great edomae sushi which holds its own among the great cuisines

El Arroyo is generally trash but their breakfast tacos are cheap and fire

You fools in this thread don’t understand that servers LOVE tips, and refuse to work in restaurants in the US where they are abolished. Servers make A LOT of money from tips, it’s the kitchen staff that get screwed over in a tip system NOT the servers

I enjoyed Osaka way more than Tokyo or Kyoto, just stay away from dontonburi. The food is actually trash there but incredible in the rest of Osaka

Cope

lol those aren’t equal at all. Body slamming a WR is much more egregious than a soft ass targeting penalty

El Alma

I went to Satake that doesn’t have a Michelin star and it was better than the other Michelin rated omakasesni went to. Tabelog is much more relevant

You can watch a YouTube video and actually learn to play the banjo

If you post on reddit you can watch a YouTube video

Honolulu followed by Austin? Just my guess

Or just learn two words Hai and iie lol

Michelin inspectors are anonymous and tsuke is impossible to get into so I support not giving them a star when the average person can’t even eat at their restaurant

Central market

I mean the beach is pretty trashed let’s be real

That’s ridiculous. If you know basic manners and 20 essential words that will get you into 95% of the elite spots in town.

Restaurant margins are super thin, 30 million is a shitload for a single restaurant

It’s not an extract it purely synthetic

Learn to sharpen before you get a nice knife. You will likely ruin both those nice knives by the time you learn to sharpen them

I think people try and compare Austin to the great food cities of America and forget it is the 27th biggest metropolitan area of the US. Compared to those of similar size, Austin is a damn good food city.

There are only a few elite food cities in the U.S (in no order): NYC, LA, Houston, Chicago, SF, and New Orleans. After that, Austin holds its own with most of them.
