▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
In this week's episode, we attempt to be come better chefs by pretending to be food critic's. After failing to impress Uncle Roger, we decided to take matter into our own hands and learn to cook. Since we didn't want to pay for real cooking lessons, we decided to pretend to be food critics in hopes of speaking to the chef's in the back kitchen.
Big shutout to Donatello! Great and kind staff!

Quick Tip: Real critics try not to give even a little hint they are critics. That means hiding notes, not asking for special treatment, and ordering a full course.

@brandonlabbe3577 Год назад

So true. That said, I wonder if critics only come at certain times of year. I dine solo pretty often and, contrary to people's warnings, I've never once received special treatment (which is to say I've never been mistaken for a food critic.) I guess maybe part of the subtlety of critics now is that they never dine alone as to not be so obvious.

@rasmus9078 Год назад

Just a tip. Food critics are usually very confident and calm. Maybe curving yourself together and making tricks with your pen isnt the best idea if you want this to succeed every time. Another tip is also to try being more formal and dont say things like "oh shoot" and when they present an idea saying "okay" isnt the greatest idea either. If someone says what she did at 2:17 maybe one of the better answers will be "alright I will let you know", "of course" or just a simple "thank you". That way you sound more formal. Saying "do you know who I am" before you even get your entre is not very great either. Food critics usually wants to stay disguised till the end so they do NOT get special treatment. Try eating what you came to eat and then after ask to see the chef and tell them who you are

@dauphongii Год назад

@@Namnu. it mostly is like that, although, the kitchen usually isn't 'particularly' dirty. it is dirty enough that the restaurants don't want to show it, but not dirty enough to not pass standards. Take a look at McDonald's kitchen sometimes, you'll see what I mean. Yeah, the counters are clean, and the general area where food moves around is clean, but the floors are dirty as hell half the time. You wouldn't want that to be in a video about your restaurant, let alone magazine sold to milions of people.

@BrianD0313 Год назад

The owner makes a good point. I doubt people want to be filmed when they are casually going out to a restaurant; especially a high end one. I know I wouldn't want a camera pointing around at me. It could be bad for business and scare customers away. It's also a bit unorthodox to ask to see the kitchen. I also doubt the staff would have wanted to be filmed as well.

@patrickpet7905 Год назад

As a professional food critic for 6 years now (in the higher levels of the profession), 95% of the time we tell the restaurants we are coming so they can be at the top of their game. To publish an official review without their knowledge is disrespectful and can get critics banned from higher-end restaurants. We also don't take notes anymore since the 90s. It is not like the movies. The 5% that are not told ahead of time are for articles that compare the establishment to other places like "The best Italian Restaurant in Chicago," or for an award. Even then, we tell the Restaurants that we will have reviewers come in between a certain time period, and we give them a rubric and standards with what they will be reviewed on. This video was literally laced with disrespect. You could have gotten better results if you told the restaurants ahead of time that you would be coming to review the restaurant for your RU-vid Channel and would like to see the Kitchen staff work, they would have obliged and be more welcoming with you filming. Other guests of the Restaurant take priority over rude guests that just come in with a camera when that may seem stressful to the workers and other guests.
