Meanwhile, at The York House...
Ethan had taken my incomplete recipe notes and hired three culinary school graduates to recreate the dish.
The first attempt was so overwhelmingly fishy that no one could take more than one bite.
The second tried using vinegar and ginger to cover up the smell, only to turn the entire dish painfully sour. Customers' faces twisted the moment they tasted it.
The third simply cooked the fish through and served it as it was.
One loyal customer was so furious that he flipped the entire table over.
"What the hell is this? I've been eating at The York House for 20 years, and this is what you're serving now?"
Within one week, their reservation cancellation rate reached 80%.
Their negative reviews on Yelp skyrocketed from three to over 300.
