#joseph fink#Idk man i'm trying to be an appreciator and not a hater but u know how#The One thing that's off about something that's nearly perfect is WAY more irritating than a WHOLE thing that's just Bad#this is stuck in my craw#And the burger bit in the menu bothered me So! Much!#1. It looked like a shit burger. Gross.#2. U have presumed ur American palate is universal. U have presumed that ur nostalgia is healing#3. WHAT REALLY ANNOYED ME WAS THAT ALL THE OTHER COURSES GOT A LIST OF INGREDIENCE#A DESCRIPTION#AND THEN THE BURGER IS DESCRIBED AS: just a Burger#Fuck you. Tell me where the beef is from. Tell me what kind of bread you're using#Burgers are still intricately constructed food. The fact that it's intricately constructed food u remember from childhood doesn't undermine#The intricate nature of the construction#Me Fein#Siiigh it's all metaphorical and figurative for how the chef was trying super hard to please an audience who can't be pleased.#Ergo overwrought dishes with overwrought descriptions#And even if I am outside of it the two characters involved in the burger exchange do share a cultural background which links them w/ Burger#Simplicity of burgers description speaks to the simplicity & directless of the connection in this instance between#.the artist.and. ........consumer?#Art-ee#So it.makes SENSE but it still pisses me off
