decided to have some pasta after my gym session just the other night
i particularly enjoyed that pasta as it was simple and done with fresh ingredients
however i was not happy with my meal and let me tell you why
the reason why i or anyone of you go back to that same restaurant is because you like what the chef prepares for you.
i used to have scallops, black olives and huge prawns topped with generous amount of sauce and toppings. that night the scallops were replaced by soft pieces of crabstick skin, tasteless and repugnant. the fish was execrable and hard to bite into.
i can see that the chef was trying to be creative and change the ingredients and the style of the pasta. the red and green peppers were cooked differently. other sauces were added to my meal and the prawns were done differently, boiled instead of the usual baked. other veggies replaced the black olives that i love to chew on.
i do not want any of these, i do not want some chef changing the meal i enjoy every thursday evening to be any different from other thursdays that i would be having it. i want the exact same dish that i had last week or the week before. i want the exact same way my prawns were done before, the same topping that i had the last time or the same ingredient that i grew to love as i had that first meal.
the feeling of not being able to get what you used to enjoy is horrible. please do not change any of that, a good chef is meant to be constant with the same style a dish is being prepared and not come up with brilliant ideas for the meal. if you do something different put it on the menu and call it something else for consumers to order.
