Have you ever noticed how restaurants like to fill your plate with "garnishes" and filler vegetables? Does anyone actually eat the lettuce or parsley garnish? Personally, I think it's ridiculous that every meal you order seems to come with some sort of garnish without a purpose. Yes, I do watch the Food Network, so I know that presentation is important, but come on! Adding a "garnish" doesn't make the food Iron Chef quality. And sometimes, less is more! It's okay to see some of the plate! It doesn't need to be filled up with 5 pieces of lettuce for one hamburger, or a monstrous mound of greasy french fries.
Well, I don't have any where else to go on this subject...this post is dedicated to Jenny and the Douglas Lodge Restaurant that inspired this little rant about too much lettuce.
