This is the most ridiculous one. W...why?

I think the joke conversation Icicle wrote might be somewhat accurate. The restaurant wants to charge diners high high so they find some way to justify the price.

Chef: Okay I got idea.

Is it wrong that I find this very appealing? Probably not the best idea during covid but the pasta does look very delicious. Smile

I hate this trend of serving food on a shovel so much. Just give me a plate la.

Lol barbed wire, shovel, skateboard...anything but a plate.

I genuinely wonder if the slight boost of such novelty plating on publicity outweighs the inconvenience imposed on the diners...

Thanks for the response to my silly captions and even sillier collection of terrible cafe food. Heart

As promised, I have even more!

Cafe owner: Eh bro, you know one of the tricks in our cafe trade is to make orders very visible. So when someone orders something, other people can also see it.
Cafe chef: Yah, I understand.
Cafe owner: Can we apply this to pancakes? Make pancakes super tall and visible.
Cafe chef: Okay I got ide—wait. I think super tall pancakes will look weird.
Cafe owner: No la won't. Just do it. What's the worst it can look?
Cafe chef: Okay lor.

Chef: Okay I got idea.

The way this salad was served reminds me of a news story I read a while ago.

There's a Russian holiday on which pancakes are usually served. So one of the Russian cities' local govt decided to celebrate the holiday by serving pancakes to a large crowd of people. And because it's a large crowd of people, they used a shovel to serve the food.

Unfortunately, a lot of Russians ended up being insulted by this and were complaining online about how the govt sees them as farm animals.

And now people are paying good money to be served salads on shovels. Hmm.
