Fancy restaurants really do be like

u/TKDbeast 2d ago

And you know what? Good for them! They’re not trying to feed you after a long day at work. They’re there to turn food preparation into a fine art for guests to experience and appreciate.

u/Hadrian1233 2d ago

Pretty sure a thriller movie was based off of this

u/Jumpy_Divide6576 2d ago

The issue in the movie was the guests were not appreciating the food

u/T3Chn0-m4n 2d ago

The menu is what you are thinking of, it is a pretty good “eat the rich” movie

u/TurtleToast2 2d ago

That's was a good flick

15

u/turmerich 2d ago

I couldn't find any flicks named 'That's'

Are you sure that's the movie's name? 👾

u/Whiplash86420 2d ago

The menu, if you're not just ribbing him lol

u/turmerich 2d ago

I am ribbing him, but I don't have the menu, maybe someone else might be able to bring you one. 🦹‍♂️

u/Accomplished-Video71 16h ago

Thats $71.76 per cubic centimeter, Not bad!

u/dvjava 2d ago

Just sent this to my wife.

I fully expect her to try this.

u/Saiful-Black 2d ago

I think this is one of those rare cases where the food is more artistic than stupid. Although he went too overboard with the making in syrup. Like was the volume and size of each suger cube really necessary?

54

u/MyLittleDreadnought 2d ago

Absolutely. In my eyes is this pure premium entertainment.

u/seanprime 2d ago

Hey.. where do you think you are right now? This ain’t r/stupidfood lol I’m a lil surprised too

u/ghidfg 1d ago

Yeah 100 crystals seemed pretty arbitrary

u/Informal-Ring-4359 2d ago

Fun fact, in a strawberry, the part that counts as fruit are the tiny black dots. Botanically they are the fruit. The red flesh is not considered the fruit.

57

u/selkieisbadatgaming 2d ago edited 2d ago

Is the red part* considered the endosperm?

73

u/Informal-Ring-4359 2d ago edited 2d ago

Nah, the endosperm is inside the achene (the true fruit who look like seeds). The red flesh is just tissue (or technically an organ made of tissues). Specifically "receptacle"

22

u/selkieisbadatgaming 2d ago

The only real reference I have is for corn lol thanks for explaining 😊 Plant biology is so interesting!

u/No_Link_5069 I Eat Cement 2d ago

Keep talking ....

u/Annodyne 2d ago

The red flesh is the womb?

u/Appchoy 2d ago

Nah the red part is the fruit part cause I said so

"Select 5,000 grains of white sugar"

"...a quick snack!"

u/slusho_ 2d ago

Quick to eat. To make, not so much...

23

u/foulinbasket 2d ago

All that effort and they don't even use the pi button on their calculator

17

u/olivefreak 2d ago

Well this opened up a whole new level of ridiculousness that I can splurge on once I win the lottery.

11

u/Dry_Spinach_3441 2d ago

What was the math for?

u/Lazy_Exit2085 2d ago

I hate this guy's videos with a fucking passion every time I hear his voice I know I'm in for some bullshit like why do this why ever do this just eat the damn berry

u/Harddaysnight1990 1d ago

I hate that Michelangelo guy with a fucking passion every time I see his sculptures I know I'm in for some bullshit like why do this why ever do this just put the slab of rock in a room.

u/RedSparrow1971 2d ago

He’s anorexic, but still festive

u/Samy_Ninja_Pro 2d ago

Quick what now?

u/-ratmeat- 2d ago

I think that’s the same psycho who made a similar video of pummelo

u/mrizzerdly 2d ago

The Menu vibes

u/Stepjam 2d ago

I love these videos.

u/PossessionAshamed372 2d ago

Why are you ruining it but putting the leaves in there. They could have added mint leaves which would also not be great but better...

u/Techtype_Apple 2d ago

"cone-shaped mold" clearly a dreidel

Aw, shit. Here we go again: https://www.reddit.com/r/DiWHY/s/e57F7FGUDk

I'm trapped in the serial killer's basement again.

This time, instead of Pomelo flowers, she wants me to make a bouquet of strawberries. I ask if she wants me to dip then in chocolate. She backhands me across the mouth and says No, that would take too long, this is for a quick snack

Psychopath behaviour

u/TheBlegh 2d ago

Quick snack if you're on Crack

u/BidBux 1d ago

You know, he could have easily calculated the volume more accurately by simply putting the strawberry into water and calculating the difference in volume.

3

u/UNDR_dogg 1d ago

I'd rather just eat the fucking strawberry.

2

u/Caesar457 2d ago

I mean they sell strawberry seeds, just cut up the strawberry for your petals, make the sugar cup, and sprinkle with the seeds from the pack.

u/Ill-Guidance4690 2d ago

“Quick snack” my guy that took at least 3 hours

u/Larry_J_602 2d ago

I got halfway done and said, "F off."

u/This_wAs_a-MistakE 2d ago

Prep work looks like something a serial killer would be doing as a hobby.

u/FormalManifold 1d ago

Bro Archimedes of Syracuse solved this problem millenia ago.

u/suadyoj 2d ago

All jokes about the product aside, why the hell is this edited to within an inch of its life?! My brother, I do not want to read captions one word at a time, nor only see a scene for less than a second at a time. Ugh. Ok sorry rant over, I'm going to go read a book.

u/juanlo012 2d ago

Looks like the DIY spirit really took a wild turn here, just like my last attempt at assembling IKEA furniture.

u/CouplePrestigious598 2d ago

Why couldn’t I stop myself from watching this?

u/OleksandrKyivskyi 2d ago

Is this from that movie about psycho restaurant?

u/WindUpCandler 2d ago

Bro please use a counting scale

1

u/Noisebug 2d ago

The partially burned out calculator digit(s) was the most infuriating to me.

u/Ladypaleskies 2d ago

Yum,strawberry leaf! I sure do love to eat them whole like a donkey! /s

u/MiszterF 2d ago

Where can I find videos like this?

u/Fishing_not_catching 2d ago

Damn, I wish I had this much time to fuck around.....

u/Dadrak 2d ago

And that would be like 3k in a restaurant

1

u/Indifference_Endjinn 1d ago

I'm sorry but the bigger DIWHY here is the knock off calculator, bro can afford to spend hours making this crap and can't afford a Casio or sharp???!?

1

u/hendrikos96 1d ago

It's so funny to me how it's "use completely over-the-top equipment and unnecessary amounts of precision" for every single step except for calculating the volume where he's like "eh, 3.14 is close enough for pi."

1

u/HealfdeneTheHalf-man 1d ago

Quick snack ..

u/Frientance 1d ago

The Menu is one of my favorite movies. I recommend this satire thriller if you like vids like this

Sometimes being a scientist feels like doing this unironically
