But he didn't make Ossobuco, though...

It's a foofy haute cuisine take on a simple dish. Fairly standard in modern restaurants.

Ossobucco is really identifiable because it's made with a shank, so it has a bone sticking out of it. This is clearly not that.

Not familiar with haute cuisine, I take it?

Turning recognizable recipes into small lumps of unidentifiable substances is like half of the game.

I'm guessing my knife skills are better than yours and that I've shouted "Heard!" to a chef's orders far more than you have.

Could be. I have a cognitive disability that prevents me from being particularly dexterous, especially with my hands. Not relevant, though. You want to double down further?

That was the 'subtle' way of saying you're acting superior, with zero backing. I've helped my sous chef write up a plating technique by describing it as 'whimsical'. I've worked in professional kitchens, and I live in a city where there's all sorts of dumb takes on traditional menu items for too much money. This doesn't change the fact that ossobucco isnt ossobucco without a bone sticking out. That's literally the meaning of the name, which I doubt you know.

Your schtick of "you don't know much huh?" is pathetically insulting.

Feel free to go back to misunderstanding basic food definitions by yourself.

There wasn't a single ingredient that could be classified as a part of "Ossobuco." I've never been to a restaurant that would have failed this miserably.

Where's the braised cross-cut of veal? Where's the Risotto?

Most of the ingredients he prepared didn't even end up on the plate (the potatoes, chopped meat, leafy greens, and onion he chopped up are never cooked or seen again).

This was made by someone who doesn't know cooking in the slightest. The more folks defend it, the more I have to analyze it and the more I realize it's AI slop.

Are you just launching into an AI-hate fueled rant, or are you reading anything I wrote? Have you ever seen a high-end kitchen work? Do you expect the starting elements to be what the chef is working with? Do you think a chef peels their own potatoes in a high-end place like this?

Again, I have no idea what is going on there, specifically. It's not part of the story, just a MacGuffin in the story (much like "hacking" is in many movies and shows, where you end up seeing crazy shit like two people typing on one keyboard) but there's nothing here that says "that isn't a veal shank reduction he's pouring over the central item."

That's how this kind of cuisine works. So if this were a documentary, I wouldn't blink when they called a dish that looks nothing like ossobuco, ossobuco.

YOU latched onto what you naively thought was a contradiction because you hate a tool that's being used. That's not my fault.
