Fave Foods/Dishes, and 1 Simple Step to ruin it. (1 Viewer)

This is a thread dedicated to you favorite foods/dishes. For either breakfast, lunch or dinner.

But here's the catch. As much as you love it.... There's one "small" thing that can completely ruin it (you'll still eat it and love it, but it lets you down in an unexplainable way)

I'll start, because I just had this happen right now....

Went to a very high end business breakfast to seal a contract - Got my fave breakfast item, smoked salmon eggs benedict. Jacked up.

It arrives. Looks amazing. Smells amazing.

Cut in, and the yolk doesnt run. I have to bite my tongue as I dont want to look like a ##### in front of colleagues, so I eat it as is. Still good, but such a monumental let down.

A fave dish, ruined by an extra minute of poaching.

Go.

 
Medium steak when you ordered medium rare. I never say anything(I'm hungry at that point), but I do die a little on the inside

when a BBQ place can't figure out how to make decent sides with the meat. Mac n Cheese isn't *that tricky. Cornbread that tastes like something other than sand. Collard greens cooked because someone knew what they add to a meal instead of boiled straight from a can. BBQ is supposed to be an experience, people.

 
Olive Garden salad and breadsticks when they don't put enough dressing on the salad to dip your breadsticks in.

 
Since I just made the comment in the cheese thread: mac and cheese that isn't creamy/saucy enough.

Pizza where the structural integrity is off and all the cheese pulls off as you bite it.

Overcooked steak is horrible. That is why I tend to order it less cooked than I want it and it gets delivered properly. Who knows hoe long it is going to sit under the warming lamp while the other stuff at your table is finished.

SK is right, you will finish it, but it sux. Especially when you are dropping a bit of $$ on it.

 
Pasta with sauce.....when the pasta is overcooked and not al dente.

Concur with a non-runny yolk.
Add to that when the place does not properly drain the water from the spaghetti and it then makes the sauce watered down.Also ditto on the yolks.

It's why I usually only eat steak at home. 90-120 seconds too long makes all the difference

 
Any time they put fruit of any kind on pancakes, waffles or french toast. or finding pubes on them. That is bad too.

 
Salmon (or really any fish, but I love salmon) that is overcooked. It only takes two minutes too many, but then it's just not the same.

 
If I ever get a chicken dish and there is even a small piece of chewy cartilage or sinew it just ruins the whole meal for me and I lose my appetite.

 
Tortiere (traditional French Canadian meat pie) is ruined when it's served with ketchup instead of chili sauce.

 
Pad Thai. When you ask for it Thai spicy and they overdo it. Just tastes like heat really. Turrible.

 
I hate Fritos in my chili. All they do is turn soggy after 30 seconds and you're stuck eating mushy cornmeal.

 
Chicken sausage and gailan mousseline with raisins and feta. But then you look up and see your neighbor, Octavio, furiously masturbating with batting glove right outside your kitchen window.

 
When I go to my favorite steak house, and instead of a big steak, I'm served a big pile of cat poop. It makes for a sub-par experience generally.
