Shrimp aren’t soft shell crab, unless they’re in a cocktail they’re usually mixed into something, and now i’m Stuck removing and de-tailing them and either eating them separately, or trying to mix them back into my dish.

What is the competition for? Does everyone want to eat at 5:30, or does everyone want to sit at the special table? Whatever you can do to do a better job of meeting that demand will go a lot farther toward making everyone happy. And you can still try to make a bunch of seniors go online at midnight or whatever.

That's not discrimination based on criminal history, that's discrimination based on race, which duh is mega illegal Recent state law is more restrictive in terms of what you can ask, when, and what decisions you can base on criminal history. Definitely check that out if you're hiring.

You know what I really like is soft ice. My grandma's fridge made soft ice crescents -- in retrospect there was probably a pinhole in her water supply line or something -- but it was so good. Fully frozen but heavily aerated, it broke apart easily and into interesting soft, not jagged, pieces. So satisfying to chew. Make that the next hipster thing please

Yeah, but Sonic ice is tiny to start with. This is big, like normal freezer crescents, and then you crunch it small, an excellent bonus step.

Guys, it says "will not impact our regular timely delivery for all other orders." It doesn't say it won't affect other orders at all. It's just saying other orders will still be delivered in whatever window they consider timely.

Just don't be surprised if it's no. Most places are running a dramatically reduced menu and not buying the ingredients for everything on their regular menu. Can't hurt to ask, though

Currently restaurants are only serving outside. Theoretically they're supposed to distance customers, but that's not happening at all. As of July 6, restaurants can go back to indoor service at 50% capacity. I believe that's 50% of fire marshal max capacity, which is really jammed, plus they'll continue outdoor service. There are a number of precautions they should take at that point, but precautions are being ignored outside so I wouldn't expect them to actually happen inside either. The only good news is that FOH I've seen is wearing masks. That's a very small bit of good news. I definitely haven't heard anything about the city covering medical bills or anything like that. There are a lot of smaller questions that go into the decision, like are you generally healthy, does anyone on your team have asthma or high blood pressure (and can they even get checkups so they'd know if they did), would you have to commute on public transit, if you wind up in the hospital but you survive is your boss going to kick in $10k towards medical bills, etc. Working in way worse conditions plus getting paid less than you used to doesn't seem like a good combination to me if you have other options.

You can either leave the scales on, cook it, and remove the whole skin, or else take the scales off and serve it with the skin. For my taste, ughhhh posted:You always descale salmon because the best part is the crispy skin when you pan sear them.

Anecdotally there are a ton of people in my neighborhood facebook groups selling cakes, different kinds of treats, tamales, various ethnicities of dumpling, etc., all done out of their home kitchens with no oversight. This was not a thing pre-pandemic at all.

Gnocchi, orecchiette, anything that's super labor-intensive like that (more than fettuccine/etc.) Any ethnicity of dumpling. If you have things that need smaller amounts of labor, you can request that people sign up in advance, say 3-5 per shift, and show up at 7/10/5 or whatever your timing is. That way you won't be trying to direct a whole workforce if you just need some potatoes peeled Anne Whateley fucked around with this message at 06:11 on Jun 8, 2021 |

This is the robot: https://www.bearrobotics.ai/specification It's heavy enough with a low enough center of gravity I don't think it would be hosed up by someone accidentally backing into it. If someone beat the poo poo out of it on purpose, idk it seems like you would handle it the same way as if someone beat the poo poo out of a chair/window/bar taps/etc. on purpose. It has a touchscreen that can probably handle simple stuff or summon a human if necessary. There's definitely stuff it can't do, but it seems like it would be really good as a busser or a secondary food runner. Combine it with tablet ordering and FOH would look super different for sure.

I wouldn’t be too concerned about it, but if you are, I think a way to avoid it might be to have them do the shopping and cutting at their place, then ideally (if you look up the rules) you’re just buying a bag of cut squash instead of hiring a contractor. They would be on the hook for not having a cottage food license and all kinds of poo poo. But this is pretty theoretical, I wouldn’t worry. A lot of casual stuff like this is under the table and it’s nbd unless someone ends up in the hospital
