    I can shed some light on how Michelin does it now.
    they still call you to invite you to the awards show (indicating you have been nominated for at least 1 star). they do not tell you what you received until the show starts. the way the award show is framed, they list all of the restaurants who "retained" x stars, and if you went up a star, they announce you twice. for example, if you had 1 star, and went up to 2, they will announce you amongst the 1 star winners, and then surprise you with announcing you with the 2 star recipients as a newcomer.
    and if you go from 2 to 3, they make a special announcement at the end. for example, Smyth, the newest 3 star American restaurant, was announced with the 2 star recipients (as to be expected, since they technically retained their 2 stars by earning a 3rd) and then were not announced with the 3 star retaining restaurants, as earning a 3rd star is different than retaining one. once the retained 3 star recipients are announced, they make a surprise "and newly awarded 3 Michelin stars, Smyth, in Chicago Illinois".
    its not quite the same as before, but you know you earned something when you get the invite to the show. this year I don't believe anyone in the awards show lost a star, but i'd imagine that results in a call stating you won't be invited to the ceremony, and thus lost your star.

      @@justinkhanna for the sake of anonymity I sent you a DM on Instagram. When you work closely with “high profile” chefs it’s not exactly fair to reveal yourself online as you’re essentially representing them, but I’d be happy to continue the convo over there! I’ve had some questions for you as well about things like TSD, so if you find the time I’d be interested to hear back.
      Love these reviews, as well as the rest of your content!

    I’m a green cook in a pub where, at maximum, there are 2 people in the kitchen. I prep cook and wash dishes, and it’s been a great full spectrum experience. Hopefully I can build a bankroll and gamble it on a small elevated burger concept that’s been marinating in my brain. The internet is great, chefs like you really do teach a lot.

    I think the protrayal of the poor knife grip and hand position by him was an intentional choice. He clearly wasn't enthusiastic about going to culinary school, probably thinking he was above it or could just learn on the job given that he already has a lot of "restaraunt" experience and him just being older in general. Tina on the otherhand, was stubborn early in season 1, but eventually saw the success of the change brought about by Carmen and began to enjoy growing and taking pride in her creations. She is using the correct grips as she is more incline to accept new techniques and change in general.

      It’s also mentioned that Ebra has arthritis, so I think his knife skills reflect his physical issues.

      Also, I think both Ibra and Tina were sent to the program to become better managers, especially if Ibra’s contributions can’t scale but he’s much more valuable managing prep during the morning or day and running the window

    Talking about everyone saying behind or corner now, I work in a factory setting and caught myself having to say it so much because people just aren’t paying attention and moving at a high rate of speed so I’ll yell out behind and they immediately know what’s going on. It just makes sense at the end of the day.

    And Syd said 1 star because thats where they at "The Bear" has to start somewhere.

    I think savory components in dessert is really cool. I worked at a restaurant that topped their “sundae” with balsamic and evoo, and then the pastry chef at Auberge’s Stanly Ranch makes a sourdough ice cream

    Justin, if I’m not mistaken, in the Michelin star conversation, Syd kinda mutters “well that’s three I guess”. Meaning she got excited telling her dad the definition of stars and overstated, then quickly tried to correct. Or at least that’s what I heard and how I interpreted it.

    Love watching these breakdowns. Very fun, because i am a restaurant person as well so knowing other people notice some of it is cathartic and entertaining.
    2 points, first is, why do you call Natalie Cat?
    And second, on the whole restaurant failure stats and stuff, i think restaurants are so often used as examples of high risk is due to the margins being slim and a ton of stuff is needed to open one. Yes, many software companies probably fail, the vast majority of bands never get anywhere, but the startup on those could be as low as what a guitar/drum cost or a laptop with programming software installed.
    Could the failed company have gotten a 100k loan to try to get it done? Sure. But opening a restaurant actually requires an absurd amount to just get rolling so its an easier example of "hey thats crazy risky and you are on the line for a ton of it"

    Can you do a "first time reaction & breakdown" for the upcoming season 3? I enjoy your input as a chef, but it kind of feels weird to watch someone watch something that they've already seen before.
