In France, most restaurants just buy pre-made food and reheat it.When you order a dish, the "cooks" just take the pre-made dish from the freezer and reheat it. There's no cooking involved.What even is the point of paying 30€ + tips if you just gonna serve me frozen food?
/ck/ hereMost places are like this and not all cooks wash their hands. You want top quality ingredients pay top quality prices. Still no guarantee le chef washes his hands, so cram it and feel full.
>>534747408restaurants are a scam for boomers and always have been, why do you need someone else to prepare and serve you food, are you 4 years old or retarded or something?
>>534747408almost all goods get frozen while being transported so there isn't really any issue with premade meal you are just mad because the cook in front of you isn't the real cook kek
>>534747408Easy, just buy the same stuff and do it yourself at home then
>>534747408A LOT of places in the U.S. basically use this "technique". The G.F.S. truck shows up and offloads their case of fresh-frozen entrees all ready for easy reheat in a steamer or whatever.
>>534747408Sometimes it's good to just get out of the house.
>>534747872NPC
>>534747872go jogging
>>534747872take a picnic or maybe even a little BBQ to grill someplace.
>>534747408Just choose a restaurant with a small menu, it's probably all fresh.
>>534747408Whenever I order Chinese food it arrives at my house within 10 minutes in microwaveable plastic trays. I almost want to tell the guy to take a little longer so I can trick myself into thinking it was made fresh
>>534748493this...or just barge your way into the back and see whats going on.
>>534747408>>534748493Is there a French version of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares or something similar?Or is that considered bad izzat like the time the French wine judges blind judged a foreign wine to be better and had a hissy fit?
>>534748618do you live above the joint or something?
>most restaurantsOP confirmed to be a poorfag neet.
>>534748658Yeah I bet he has never had high class meals like reindeer testicles or what ever you national dish is
>>534747408Your supermarkets have restaurant quality prepared food. I used to stock up on tins of cassoulet, bottles of wine and sleaves of suchards at Carrefour when I'd drive to France. This shithole has no kultur.Don't mind me, I'm just venting.
>>534747408>FranceYou answered yourself.
>>534748637>Is there a French version of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares or something similar?There is actually.
>>534748868What’s it called I wanna have a geez
>>534747408>French "cuisine"kek
(((Sysco))) supplies all of our restaurants here
>>534749000"Cauchemar en cuisine avec Philippe Etchebest", literally "Kitchen's nightmare with Philippe Etchebest". Pretty sure they just bought the concept from channel 4. Closer to the uk version in tone as well, so no constant yelling and crashouts.
>>534749079Yeah, it's all shit now.I ordered biscuits and gravy for breakfast a while back and as I went to the restroom I saw them uncanning the gravy and had a the pillsbury biscuit roll visible.Charged $18 for two biscuits and a spoonfull of gravy each in a small town diner.
>>534749079A lot of Sysco frozen shit is more expensive than supermarket shit by weight. I don't understand how bulk buying 20kg of hash browns should cost more per kg than 1kg bag from the supermarket. Are restaurants really getting scammed just for the convenience of a Sysco delivery truck?
>>534749000It's literally called "Nightmare in the kitchen" since it's adapted from the original show.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hp0ZLuhqZiU
>>534747408M8 I'd eat your reheated sloppa any day of the week.
>>534747408>Duck confit in a canThat's some boujee canned food.
>>534749203>Closer to the uk version in tone as well, so no constant yelling and crashouts.That's better if he's being serious and only yells when the bad cooks genuinely being pigs it stands out more.
Basically the only thing I go out to eat unless it's work is brunch either a buffet or eggs benny. I go somewhere where you can see the kitchen in both cases. It's made like I'd make it at home, and eggs benny is a pain in the ass.
>>534749418It's pretty common and not particularly high class here.
>>534749267sysco is the only game in town. they can charge what they want you will pay it.have you seen any trucks that are their competition delivering anywhere? I haven't.
It can be a planning condition in locations where you simply aren't allowed to cook shit. To cook, you need extractor and vent, which usually needs to be tall as properties above, who'll complain otherwise. This is expensive and property may not have access to build one, or complaints if they are trying to. Tldr, 'reheat only' planning is easier to get and cuts down on hassle for owner and smell/fumes for neighbors.
>>534747408Restaurant and fast-food industry is a fucking scam, and you're directly financing nafris, groids and pajeets who work in them, especially if you get your goyslop delivered.Last time I went to a basic restaurant, the bill was close to 80€ for just me and gf, the food was fucking mediocre, and I saw two sweaty pajeet cooks as we walked out.Back in my day, pizza delivery guys were college students, now every single delivery driver is a grown ass foreigner who doesn't speak a single language.I'm simply not going to spend my money so they get a paycheck.
>>534749827i get you
Imagine not just going to the butcher's, buying a few kilos of fresh lamb chops and throwing them in the air fryer for 11 minutes.
>>534749899>butchers>lambAllahu to you, too, habibi.
>>534748618Retard. Chinese food gets sold in such high volumes, it's all fresh. Every dish gets made 3-4 times a day minimum. It stays in a hot area the same as "fresh" French fries do.
>>534749603my friend got hired as a driver for sysco. the first day his route was in brooklyn ny. he got robbed at his second stop. he said fuck this, drove the truck back and quit
>>534747408>French cuisine falling to the Sysco modeloh no. I'm genuinely sorry to hear that. I had clung to the hope that France was a last bastion of the culinary arts.
>>534749899>Meat and cheeseMaybe if you were the king. Commoners ate gruel.
>>534747618Truthpill right here. Learn to cook. Not only you save a lot of money, but you also have full control over what's in it and how it's prepared.
>>534749267Sysco/US Foods both have a minimum amount of money you have to spend on any given order. So when doing inventory and reordering you might have to add an item you don't necessarily need at the moment to meet the minimum. You can't just expect them to ship you one item every other day.

>>534747408They were doing the same shit 100 years ago. Gurdieff wrote about it.
>>534747408Confit is preserves. You can’t just make confit fresh to order, it takes days. You’re making shit up this doesn’t happen for other dishes. That’s like ordering pelmeni at a Russian restaurant and getting mad they were heated from frozen. Besides, this photo is from a supermarket
>>534750683Commonders held livestock, had their own milk to make cheese and butter.Middle aged commoners ate better than you, fatso.
>>534747699but when you do that the news articles are full of seething kikes, shaming you to go out and spend money on goyslop
Restaurants have always been a dumb scam. Do you really think its possible for restaurants to actually cook all their food handcrafted for tons of customers? of course not, that would take insane amounts of money and time which is why only the very fanciest restaurants are capable of doing this. But the vast majority of restaurants just get their food frozen and cook it that way, and the main way they make it taste "good" is by covering it in tons and tons of butter.Have you noticed that most restaurant food just kinda tastes the same, no matter what it is? Its all just slop covered in butter.
>>534751103> Its all just slop covered in butter.OP is a frenchman, know your audience
>>534750955OP is clearly a nu-french shitskinned retard, their low IQ takes are fucking tiresome. I should have left the pol long ago but the "you are here forever" was unfortunately true, i never would have guessed how brown it can get.People need to understand the state of modern France its even worse than USA is its utterly and completely niggered and shitskinned, they even got the thousand-years-of-cousin-marriages retarded muslims by the millions which USA doesnt really have, you have a some hundred thousand somalis and maybe some middle eastern and north african retarded shitskins but thats it, while France is TEEMING with them
>>534750955>Confit is preserves. You can’t just make confit fresh to order, it takes days.Just a few hours actually. So you can do it first thing in the morning for lunch service or cook it the day before. Still quite a leap between something made in-house and bought premade and reheated. Also that's not a supermarket but a wholesaler.
>>534751213Sad. I had considered leaving USA to join the legion etrangeres once my older relatives are gone. Oh well. I’m an educated forester, I hear there’s work for people like me in the nordic countries. I do adore Finland
>>534751310i worked at a winery in my youth, and we made confit there. sure, the process of cooking it only takes a few hours, but butchering and salting the duck does take at least a day
>>534750760also its good to know how to cook if you want a gfwomen love men that can cook
>>534747872this. restaurants exist in this country because we have zero free cultural spots to hang out. eating at restaurants is it. everything else is illegal.
>>534748493Whenever a new restaurant tried to open with a small menu here all the insufferable began cunts review bomb it to death for not having a complete selection of vegetarian options
>>534751547>but butchering and salting the duck does take at least a dayButchering? Unless we are talking a few hundred live/whole(meaning unplucked and with all the internal organs) ducks a day, it shouldn't take a whole day. Or maybe you're talking about the rest time between the salting and the cooking in which case it's more a problem of storage than time.
>>534747408which is why nobody goes anymore
>>534751480yeah the foreign legion i dont think is anymore some european that wanted a new life but probably isis terrorist trying to use it for citizenship and other lowlifes from third world, i dont actually know though just guessing from the general direction of france and the worldthere is def work in forestry in finland and that will never go away the machines have already hit the point of diminishing returns in their development so some future where it needs less workforce isnt coming anytime soon as the industralization of that business already happened and there is still plenty of work, most of the country is forest after all and most of it is also managed and commercially exploitedi think for most european countries is quite easy to get EU citizenship by just proving your ancestry to whichever country you're originally from, in fact this should be the *only* way to get citizenship here before jews of course fucked it all up. like we are supposed to be bloodright citizenship, "jus sanguinis" as opposed to jus soli of the new world, but unfortunately the kikes have created UN laws to poke holes and workarounds in it so all the nons would get backdoor citizenship tooLike its the 1951 UN Refugee Convention that jews made so "holocaust would never happen again" that created the whole mechanism of asylum seeking and the backdoor for nons to flood White countries, although its principal reason was for jews to create backdoor for themselves were they found out and need to "flee prosecution" once again.But its not actually that law that gives them backdoor citizenships, that is the 1961 UN Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness,and this convention specifically gives the worst possible ethnic groups from worst possible countries like somalis, citizenships to White countries when they are born....
>>534749079cisco jail food tasted good but i knew it was so evil lol
>>534751944I’m talking about the processing + salting time. When I made it we had to break down 6-10 ducks in the morning, then salt them until lunch the next day. I don’t doubt that the sysco model is perverting french cuisine, but cmon, confit and other preserved foods are a poor example. Like pelmeni, it’s one of those things I wouldn’t be upset if a restaurant did not serve it to me fresh
>>534752042See, when you come in from a proper country lets say Japan, and if they have child here, they will get the Japanese citizenship, not European one. Because the citizenship goes by their parents, not by the birth place, in jus sanguinis law.But what the "UN Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness" does the jewish bastards argued that if you dont give a nigger that is born as anchor baby in your country a citizenship, then he could become stateless and that be a problem.So then countries where you can't easily get the citizenship sorted out so basically every corrupt and dysfunctional nigger shithole, then you gotta give them your citizenship instead.And that is how jews once again broke a fundamental law of the world that citizenship is supposed to mean what blood they have. What people they are. That if a Finnish kid gets born anywhere he is still a Finnish citizen, or if any other kid is born in Finland he is still the kid of his own people.But now this only works for functional countries like those that wouldn't be bad, so for example a Japanese wouldn't get citizenship by being born here, but a Somali or a Pakistani wouldThis is how the clown world functions because jews won WWII and the good guys lost. Everything is retarded and exactly the opposite of how it should work
>>534752069>6-10 ducks in the morningBoy, you people are slow. You also didn't anwser whether they were whole or not.
>>534747408Oh boy, wait until OP grows up and finds out about sous vide.He's gonna be very upset
I really dont care if you fed the duck yourself for a year or if it came from a can I am only here to get food and drinks on my table as long as it tastes good and the price is right.
>>534752242Whole ducks, but from the store so they were already plucked and everything. It was harvest season, "in the morning" was like 0400-0445. I had a lot of other things on my plate
>>534747408Why even going to a restaurant then, I'd rather buy to some foodtruck
>>534752745>0400-0445This supposed to be 4 a.m. to 4:45 a.m.?
>>534748493Yes or use word of mouth to know the legit restaurants from the fake ones. In Italy I've never heard of that. But to be fair Italian dishes are mostly quick to prepare, whereas french ones require hours upon hours of complicated stuff.
>>534749418maybe to your circumcised yank ass
>>534752931Yes, when I said it takes all day I also meant the time to salt in the fridge. Confit is a preserve and not something that can really be made to order, I wouldn't mind if a restaurant served a premade one. Now, if they're doing something like carrottes rapees or steak tartare from a jar, that's a problem.
>>534751669The only good answer in the thread./thread
>>534747633>almost all goods get frozen while being transportedNo they absolutely do not you complete fucking moron
>>534753230Well, we are going back to >>534751944>Or maybe you're talking about the rest time between the salting and the cooking in which case it's more a problem of storage than time.and >>534751310>Still quite a leap between something made in-house and bought premade and reheated.Actually france does have a label "fait maison" (lit. home made) for restaurants to avoid OP's problem and though there is no legal certification to use it, it's still considered fraud to use it when serving premade stuff.
>>534747872I'll bet you like socializing too. Disgusting.
>>534747580>Still no guarantee le chef washes his handsthat's why, if you are already a foodcuck, you should insist on the food being prepared in front of youif the chef starts without washing his hands, leave
>>534753340maybe if you only eat peas and bread now kill yourself (you are either a paki or got raped by one)
>>534747408Jean-Mehmed, are you only going to the local kebab shops or something ?> is french> muh french restos are scamare you retarded or something ?
>>534749079>our restaurantsim not sure your "restaurants" qualify burger
