I just loved how on episode one they said they were the equals of "savory chefs"

Posted by crash davis (aka crash davis) Oct 7 '10, 11:33

every episode since then tells me: no, they really aren't

Responses:

sure they are. they're just different. -- nm - kare Oct 7, 11:34 22
- in a lot of ways, being a pastry chef is much harder, imo....nm - xi Oct 7, 11:44 8
  - the pastry princess! -- nm - bugsy Oct 7, 11:47
  - I was going to say, there's no messing around with baking. You have to know your chemistry. -- nm - loosilu Oct 7, 11:46 1
    - plus, things change a lot depending on conditions like the relative humidity. it's a pain in the ass...nm - xi Oct 7, 11:49
  - I won't dispute your IM. Baking is tough for me. But equal to a perfectly crafted main course? I say nay. -- nm - crash davis Oct 7, 11:46 4
    - how many things can a pastry chef make by salting it and throwing it on the grill? -- nm - loosilu Oct 7, 11:46 3
      - I wouldn't trust these people on this show with grills. It takes longer to hurt yourself with freezers. -- nm - crash davis Oct 7, 11:47 2
        
        try melted sugar sometime. -- nm - loosilu Oct 7, 11:55 1
        
        I've had to use a candy thermometer before. Still desserts pale to a perfect piece of salmon -- nm - crash davis Oct 7, 12:00
- no they really aren't, they are good at what they do, they are creative - but where you can require a TC "savory" contestant to make a dessert - crash davis Oct 7, 11:36 12
  - how many times do you hear the savory chefs complain that they're not a pastry chef? - kare Oct 7, 11:38 11
    - lots, but then again, they can still do it. Also, can you live without dessert, yes. Can you live without real food, no :) -- nm - crash davis Oct 7, 11:40 10
      - Without dessert you exist, it's not really living. -- nm - jnine Oct 7, 11:49 1
        
        I like this :) -- nm - crash davis Oct 7, 11:55
      - crash bandit davis! you're just talking nonsense now. dessert *is* real food. - kare Oct 7, 11:41 7
        
        heh - when we went to a seafood buffet, Trish asked me if I was going to get dessert. I said "No, Its either that or more king crab legs" - crash davis Oct 7, 11:45 2
        
        Amen brother! -- nm - Stephen Oct 7, 11:46
        
        :) -- nm - kare Oct 7, 11:46
        
        his middle name is "bandit"? - bugsy Oct 7, 11:42 3
        
        it is now. -- nm - kare Oct 7, 11:44 2
        
        I like it -- nm - crash davis Oct 7, 11:46 1
        
        :) -- nm - kare Oct 7, 11:58
