RE: When your expectations meet with disappointment

in #ruthphotostorieslast year (edited)

Really annoying!!! My mom bought something similar for the New Year's table, it was stuffed with pork, nuts and raisins... Too salty, too greasy, such a waste of money. I mean, we always expect something more decent at least from the description, but then all we get is a big meeeeh

Fortunately but also unfortunately I have a degree in culinary. So I know what dishes are supposed to taste like for the most part. There are dishes I’ve never tried I’m sure, but knowing the style of cooking gives me a knowledge of even never tried before dishes a marker of flavor profile to look for. When I go out to dinner it’s usually for a good steak, so if the place uses good meat I’m good. I cook foods from just about everywhere, so I’d rather just make dishes myself.
