Lol these are always funny. Look up people complaining about a “leaf” in their food when the recipe uses Bay Leaf. It’s like complaining someone put leaves in your tea.
Leaves obviously don’t belong into tea. Everyone knows tea grows when you hang those little paper bags on a tree. And depending on the kind of tree, you get a different type of tea.
I will say though, I’ve had curry where the bay leaf is chopped up which makes it rather obnoxious.
Sure that wasn’t a curry leaf? Either way I’d agree they’re beat removed before serving.
If it’s not edible it shouldn’t be in the plate. Bay leaf, cinnamon sticks. Etc shouldn’t end up in the plate. They’re used just for flavor.
What a weird hill to die on!
So I assume you eat the bones of chicken wings, legs, thighs, etc? You eat the stems of apples and other such fruit? And you eat the cores or pits?
Or were you one of those children brought up by parents who cut off the crusts of the Wonder Bread sandwiches to make sure you never encountered any iota of challenge or even the most trivial work while eating?
I fucking hate bay leaf, if you don’t have a plan for getting it all out at the end don’t put it in the food because it’s gross.
Aren’t bay leaves supposed to be removed after cooking?
Big pot of something and hope you find all the bay leaves. You might pull some out, think you’ve got them all but they like to hide.
The guy couldn’t just bring it to the staff and ask them what it is?
it’s still fucking weird to me that cinnamon is tree bark.
Dude couldn’t tell the difference between plastic and tree bark!?
We were at a very authentic Chinese restaurant and and a family showed up and asked waiter for recommendations they said the roast duck is very good which is very true. The roast duck shows up to their table and the guy takes a bite and bites straight into bone and he starts loudly complaining how there’s bones in it and why isn’t there meat and that chicken has a lot more meat and why doesn’t the duck have more meat and that this is a rip off and then it’s all bones and he’s mad that they sold him this. The restaurant ended up taking back the dish and giving them a refund simply because of the customers ignorance it was so cringe.
This is exactly why some Chinese restaurants have a special Chinese menu that you need to ask for.
Idiotic behavior but who puts a cinnamon stick in there?
Chefs
I mean in the serving, in the cooking yes shure but im used to take it out again.
Get some culture. It’s incredibly common to add whole spices to dishes in many cuisines.
Man its also common to take them out again for serving.
It’s a spice. Where else should it be?
Taken out after cooking? You don’t usually serve with the thing in. At least where i worked.
It depends on the culture. In Thai cooking for example it is purposely left in. Generalizing all cultures based on your own limited experience is incredibly ignorant. People are telling you it’s common and instead of just looking it up and confirming it’s true, which it is, you’re digging your heels in to maintain your ignorance.
