Kash whats your thoughts on well done steaks? There's a chef here who goes and comfronts the customer if they ask for it well done. Surely if someone wants a well done steak then you'd cook it for them? I like mine rare so its not a problem for me.

I’d never eat a well done steak but if somebody wants one it’s no bother for me. Just seal it off, chuck it in the oven and forget about it Warnock

Annoying when it’s a table with no starters and a well done fillet and they’re moaning about where their food is after 20 minutes. I cut my fillets at about 10oz so they’re pretty big, and take about 30 minutes in the oven alone, plus a couple of minutes in the pan and a 5/6 minute rest.

Could you have gone out and explained that he wanted a well done steak and not to kid himself on that it was medium rare

He sent it back, I basted it in butter for a minute or so to really get it hot then sent it straight back out - piping hot and about medium. He sent it back again saying it still wasn’t as hot in the middle Warnock

Got the waitress to explain to him that if I keep cooking it to the temperature he wants it it’ll be well done. He said he didn’t care he just wanted it piping hot in the middle, “like his chips”. 

Sent it out again this time closer to well done than anything else. He finished it and told the waitress that it was one of the best medium rare steaks he had had Zlat

Not really a seethe, more just a general annoyance

Should have shoved it in the microwave for a minute. Monty Oh Well

Think that's called the 'Lewdog technique' in the business.

See if a chef stormed out and confronted me over how I wanted me food I’d wrap his frying pan around his heed.

Does it actually happen? Laugh I've heard of it before but surely only at some elite level restaurant with an eccentric chef?

Normally the chef get’s the front of house to do the dirty work and tell the customer that the chef refuses to do that. I haven’t seen it happen but it definitely does. My pal works at a restaurant where the head chef refuses to cater for Vegetarians and Gluten Frees if they don’t say in advance, even though they have all the stuff in house.

The guy who does that is the owner. He thinks he has the best restaurant in the Borders. It is good but surely if the customer wants a well done steak you'd just cook it for them? If they don't like a medium or rare steak thats just how they like it? Coming out and making them feel bad about it is just wrong. Imo.
