WhiteHawk77 t1_ja1qa4o wrote
Then it’s plastic over metal, as that would be a lawsuit waiting to happen, it looks exactly like cheap silver plastic looks that’s made to look like metal, and what stupid place of business hands out even dulled cleavers to the general public with kids around, that thing even with a dulled edge can crack skulls and break hands and fingers, and I know regular cutlery can do some damage too but it doesn’t have the mass this would if it was metal.

I mean functionally theyre easy to make just cut out the cleaver shape put a simple cosmetic only bevel, laser engrave the menu and then put on a basic handle and youve got it. The pain is if they want to update the menu its a lot harder and more expensive and time consuming than traditional menus. But hey youre posting it here so the gimmick is paying off as intended.

Looking at their online menu. $23 is a little high for "chopped steak." Hell, I made it at home tonight using Costco ground beef, gravy packets and Aldi white onion. My stepdaughter, a little slip of a thing, had 2/3 lbs to herself.
Devi1_May_Cry t1_ja1y3fd wrote
I found American steakhouses on the high side and that was before the post-pandemic inflation made all prices go through the roof.
Devi1_May_Cry t1_ja1yhg3 wrote
I like the 4 for $10 roast beef just fine. If I want what's on that menu, I just wait until New York strip or top sirloin go on sale at the local grocery store, reverse sear in the oven, finish on a cast iron skillet, boom, as good if not better than what's on that menu.

Based upon the total food and drink cost, no less. So the waiter at this restaurant feels entitled to more tips than the waiter at Applebee’s just because the menu options were priced higher. Same amount of work, but one gets more money. Tipping culture!
Haterbait_band t1_ja4vww1 wrote
Buy new cleavers and just raise prices on everything so the owners don’t lose any money. Same as any business. Always protect the investors and executives while passing along the consequences of poor business management to the customer. They’ll complain, but they’ll still pay.

Haterbait_band t1_ja4wdix wrote
Probably in some tourist area, or near an airport or something. Definitely not near a Costco. Although, to be fair, people are really bad with money. They’ll pay a lot of extra for convenience. Oh, and being in the regressive US which still grasps on to tipping culture, go ahead and just add 20% more to each menu item!
Haterbait_band t1_ja4wsop wrote
Greed. Simple as that. The restaurant owner(s) just want more money so they make the menu items more costly. It’s a great time to do it too, since we can blame Covid or Ukraine and customers are begrudgingly understanding, even if those things have no actual effect of their business.

the ability to show off sarcasm over text form is an ability many possess but with varied levels of skill, and i do genuinely believe you may well possess it (this is not sarcasm), but in this instance it was not as well conveyed as you may believe. The response you gave in turn was also unnecessarily rude. Unless, of course, that was also intended to be sarcastic.
WatermelonWithAFlute t1_ja72f9q wrote
While true, and you do acknowledge regular cutlery as being dangerous but with less mass, this is also still irrelevant because if a kid was to wave around a knife or something they could well hurt someone as easily as they could if they decided to try and wield the (dull) menu cleaver. This is assuming anyone actually let that occur, of course. At least, without supervision.
