    You should probably make it look like the picture every time. Do you really need a tip to provide the food that was promised to your customers?

      You do realize ALL food ads are staged? It’s also worth nothing that 99% of them are not edible due to said staging. Lastly, cooks do not get paid enough to work as hard as they do, and be meticulous about staging when they have N orders backing up and very irate customers.

        Come on, if you’re complaining about having to make the food you cook as a chef look good, you’re probably in the wrong profession and suck at what you do. And what are consumers supposed to do when they expect one thing and get something completely different? Just deal with it because of the poor chef that doesn’t get paid enough? Give me a break. If you want better wages, fight for them or do something else. Apathy and kicking the can to the consumer only lines your employers pockets and gets you and the consumer nothing that either of you want.

      It’s not like the chef is in charge of advertising. There’s a reason they don’t use actual food to make the advertisements, and it’s because actual food can’t reliably look like that.

      tips are how people make it up to minimum wage. for someone to be willing to put in the effort to do that they need to be tipped well enough to make up the difference between how much they’re paid and how much their labor is worth
