In Reply to: There is not much chance of me going to a restaurant where the chef smokes… posted by three_sox on March 27, 2011 at 01:09:26:
If you think restaurant kitchens are run like hospital operating rooms then I've got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell to you for a bargain price!
Read Anthony Bourdain's "Kitchen Confidential". In it he tells that even the most highly rated eateries have practices that are questionable.
For instance, your Sunday brunch is usually comprised of the week's leftovers. Tonight's special is yesterday's meat/fish/vegatables. And remember, don't order fish on Monday because it'll have a sauce to hide its age. Anthony tells us that kitchen staff bleed, too! When the evening is over, it's time to sweep out the dead pests and kill the injured.
Hey, I'm not trying to gross you out but getting on your high horse and pontificating about (gasp!) television sets is nuts! Besides, Bourdain's book is a great read and a best seller. Running a restaurant is like running a democracy: it can be a mess but there is true beauty in doing it.
