I've eaten some fancy places in my life. A place called "Steak 48" with a policy like this is not fancy, it is expensive but very tacky. This is like some American shit. This is a place for people who judge steaks primarily by weight. This is a place for people who think steaks are fancy, this is the 'fancy' option at an airport or stadium.
This is a disappointing night unless you are very stupid. This is what replaced your childhood pizza place when they demolished a block downtown to put up an indoor lifestyle center to accompany the luxury condos above. The condos are made of plastic and will warp and fade away into green fields, god willing. This steak restaurant will close because the owner was sexually abusive to the waitstaff
It's true tho lol like there is fancy restaurants which suck because they are super expensive BUT you eat something special that you can't eat everywhere and it can be cool as a ceremonial thing or whatever, and then there is this kind of shit which is nothing special, it's just expensive and a scam.
the bourgeois shit is amplified when it's literally just branding plus price, and not like, really good food that is also hard to make. there's still such a thing as a special occasion, this is kind of the opposite of that, just selling its own price as socially perceived value
I'm so working class I'm homeless lol. I still appriciate a good meal and there is definitely such a thing as real fanciness. Is it usually worth it? Probably not, you can eat out well for much cheaper most places, but its still a real thing, sorry that we live in a society
:im-vegan: but when I wasn't I still hated large thicc steak. You pretty much only could get it that way at shitty American chains but it was just bland and a lot of it
Any place like that that happens to have some decent vegan options does get some cred with me. Any vegan who is there in the first place probably really doesn't want to be and it's probably a work thing. Friends wouldn't make them go. At least they toss a none bone at what is most likely a shitty social obligation.
I'm a simple man and I love a big greasy steak from time to time but I would never pay that much for it. Steaks are not interesting, they are the safe choice, a comfort food. They're not hard to cook either. If I was in a position where I could spend that much on a meal, I would want something I didn't have the skill or imagination to cook at home.

Imagine how awful the vegan options at Steak 48 are
The staff are contractually obligated to throw raw carrots at you if you ask for the vegan options.
Jokes on them, raw carrots are dope.
