+OK Digital Yeah the Daniel Patterson episode was probably the worst before this and them continually referencing it did not help their case. At least Daniel Patterson is a good cook.
JoeyJesus OK first of all, learn to write you dumb fucking imbecile. Its not Their its They're*. Second, Billy comes from William. Third my username Billy Pilgrim comes from Kurt Vonnegut's Masterpiece, Slaughterhouse 5 (since you are obviously a fucking illiterate, I'm not surprised you have no idea what i'm talking about). And seriously are you complaining about Billy when your name is Joey Jesus? Fuck off you dumb sod.
Everyone has their own version of what a good night out is. They were a very tame bunch compared to most of the other episodes but it felt genuine so I appreciated it the same way I appreciate the more turned up episodes. They were being themselves.. I thought it served as a good leveler for the more crazy episodes where the chefs are sick drunk & going to strip clubs lol. Let's just call this one a palette cleanser.
+thePowerPlant I don't think everyone has to get drunk (like most of the episodes right now) but what killed the episode is that they were boring regardless.... You cant honestly think this is a great episode? They even acknowledged that they didn't even talk and got caught yawning multiple times.
GaleForce No, I do like these ones were the people are not acting crazy for the cameras. I really liked the Patterson, Benno, and Vetri episodes. That is just my feeling though.
They should start doing Chefs Night Out with blue collar workers/greasy diner owners. It would be much more interesting and a fresh change from all the hipsters and yuppie restaurants.
Just saying but all chef night outs with asians were the best to be honest... No hating but you should check it out and see the like - dislike ratio compared to this LA hipster
This entire video is the very definition of overtly Californian decadence. Every dish is over-presented in the most ostentatious manner possible. The wine and cheese bar is a carbon copy of an iPhone store. Even the titular chef openly admits to being a lazy deadhead who went to over 280 shows before figuring out he needed to one day get a job. Everybody is just full of themselves like typical LA yuppies. Don Henley put it best when he sang the line, "Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac..." I figuratively threw up a little in my mouth while watching this video. These people remind me of Marie Antoinette.
I watch and I think to myself... These are the new gangsters, the new Sinatra, like they're giving me a peek at what I can never have because I'm not a cool enough cat, and it just makes me want it that much more
All these Chefs Nights Out videos are so inaccessible. After I close my Kitchen down, 9 times out of 10 we're all too tired to go out for wine and tacos and posh fucking cheese.....and when we do its a shitload of beer and a greasy kebab. I guess it's the difference between being a Chef and a Businessman masquerading as a Chef.
No , that's just the difference between someone who's seen success and someone who hasn't. He's able to d this because he's established and probably has a team of chefs that can handle the kitchen for one night without him. You sound extremely bitter, and it isn't a good look.
I'm a huge fan of Munchies and watch every episode. With that said, the hipsters were out of control on this one. "Tortellini from Bologna and Xiao Long Bao from the San Gabriel Valley"? Come on dude. You of all people should know that Xiao Long Bao are of Shanghai origin, and the SGV is one of many, many places that you can have XLB. If you're bold enough to name drop that hard when describing your dish, you better make sure you know what you're talking about.
Chefs night out used to be really good. They are very hit and miss now. This one was definitely a miss.... Hurry up with the next season of Fuck Thats Delicious. My boy Bronsan knows where its at!!!!
Don't you think it's a bit strange that he calls cooked veggies a "crudité". "Cru" meaning "raw". Crudité is an assortment of raw ingredients presented as a dish. In french cuisine, this is usually broccoli, carrots, endive, celery, fennel, and somoetimes button mushroom, often with a dip of some sort.
I get that the whole point of the Chef's Night Out episodes, it is about promoting one's own restaurant(s) and visiting some others. It's the only reason I went to Toro in NY, when I was visiting there. But yeah, have to agree, this was probably one of the most boring episodes I've seen. He even put's out a disclaimer in the car, on the way back to his own restaurant. I hope I won't see him in another episode again, such a shame.
