Lunch at Ted's Cafe Escondido in Oklahoma City
I've been eating at this place pretty regularly for about 17 years. It is unquestionably the best Tex-Mex I've had anywhere and the service is ALWAYS flawless.

>CUT THE ROOF OF YOUR MOUTH
You need to blend your bay leaf into a fine paste so it doesn't cut you anon.
I also sprinkle bay leaf powder on pretty much everything. It has replaced salt, pepper and Parmesan in my house.

So /ck/ dumpster diver here from >>7531722
Time to make dinner tonight. Most of the stuff was harvested from a dumpster, some purchased and some 'gifted'. The sausages were going to be thrown out by my sister in law because they've "been in the freezer for too long" guess its time to eat them. They were given to her by her in laws therfore making them... well i dont know fuck. free to me.
Some cabbage heads (dumpster) carrots (bought, a few here probably worth 30 cents Saukraut (dumpster), Onion (not pictured, dumpster) and some potatoes (dumpster)
Looks like coleslaw, sausage and mashed potatoes tonight!

I had a rather embarrassing experience today during an otherwise delicious meal at a Michelin starred restaurant.
For the first time in what must be twenty years I decided to try cod again. There was nothing I hated more than Fridays at school when the only option was cod - I fucking hated that bitter, dry aftertaste and the way it requires infinite chewing before I could swallow it. I have actively avoided eating cod my entire life for the fear that I'd throw up if I tried to eat it again.
In that time I've got over plenty of other food phobias and general fussiness - there's almost no seafood I wouldn't quite happily eat and enjoy. So today I decided I'd give cod another shot.
The dish that arrived was beautifully presented, smelled wonderful and was clearly made with the best ingredients. I took one bite and at first thought I was enjoying it... only until I tried to swallow it and those horrible memories from school came flooding back to me. I had to rush to the bathroom and spit it out, almost vomiting trying to get there. On return I managed to eat the few bits of smoked eel surrounding the cod and a little bit of the foam but the damage was done - the waitress had to collect an almost full plate. This clearly doesn't happen often in that restaurant - the look on her face was as if I had just suggested digging up her mother's coffin and masturbating over her skeletal remains. For some reason my excuse "I just don't like cod, there was absolutely nothing wrong with the cooking or the ingredients" didn't seem to cut the mustard - to be fair who the fuck doesn't like cod?
Anyway, long story short, is there any food that according to everyone else is mild but you just can't eat? Have you managed to get over it with perseverance? I for one won't be touching cod ever again.
>Pic related - the offending dish and a glass of wine I'm sure would have complemented it for most people

There's a term for this that I can't remember right now but that's your problem right there. Self fulfilling anxiety attack or something.

Things people do that make you want to quit cooking?
My father will never add enough seasoning to things, like if he uses the taco seasoning packs he'll put one pack into like 3 pounds of beef.
what about you?

$15 is pretty average for me but I don't live in a gastronomically blighted flyover state.
I don't really know the most, if I recall correctly the gin and tonic I got at the Ozone Bar on the 118th floor of the IFC in Kowloon was absurdly expensive, I want to say it came to around $30 USD but it was in funny money and it was a few years ago so my memory isn't that accurate. Then again the view was pretty great and they know it.
What does "bougie" mean? Is it black slang for something?
>>
>>7535246
it's short for "bourgeoisie", it generally means something that is trying to be fancy and expensive but is actually pretty plain and trashy

from personal experience caffeine withdrawal can be very unpleasant, these days i keep coffee as just an occasional treat instead of an everyday necessity. once a week tops
>>
Yes, you can become physically addicted to caffeine.
Like pot, though - which isn't physically addictive - most of it is just lifestyle and habitual use, and not wanting to give up the things you've grown accustomed to enjoying.
People who say they wont survive without their morning cup of coffee aren't the same as people who need to go out for a cigarette every couple hours.

>Don't drink coffee
>have a terrible headache and become tired as fuck
I want to die or nap whenever I miss my caffeine fix
>Got into fight with employee, might be banned from Chipotle location. Was I wrong?
So after church this morning, I stopped to grab lunch at Chipotle like always. The one near me is in a VERY busy parking lot. Often there are no empty spaces at all. The only one I could find today had this sign: pic in OP
My logic was that I was going to Chipotle, even though I didn't "order ahead". I either had to park there or they'd lose my business. I wasn't going to eat there- I'd be in the restaurant for 5 minutes tops.
I walk in and the whale behind the counter had seen me park, asked if I was picking up an online order. I said no and started ordering. She told me I had to move my car or they wouldn't serve me. I started explaining there were no open spots, and they are turning away business because I parked in a space designated FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. She repeated herself. I told her the sign didn't say they could tow, so I wasn't moving. She still refused to serve me. I told her fine, I was walking next door to Jersey Mike's, and still wasn't moving my car.
I then went next door to Jersey Mike's, ordered a cheese steak, then brought it back into Chipotle to sit down and eat. She yells over the counter "what are you doing, you can't eat that here!?". I ignore her entirely. She actually comes out from around the counter and explains she's calling the police for trespassing unless I leave with my sandwich. I tell her go ahead, and she walks back behind the counter angry. Finish my sandwich and leave.
Was this my fault? I'm not sure after all this if they'd serve me in the future (if she's there). Customers were bert-staring the situation.

What is the easiest meal on a practical level, that allows one to perfect the most technical techniques at the same time?
e.g. it would be so easy to make a raw salad but at the same time you could hone stuff like flavour-balancing, chopping accuracy, presentation, etc.
I ask because it feels like focusing on hard meals makes you rush through all those little elements just to get a success on the basic practical level. Also this question is about home-cooking, nothing professional.
