One disappointing realization about the restaurant industry is how logistics-driven everything is. If I want to make the best meal I can make, I don't mind spending a little extra time for that one side, or going out of my way for one ingredient that will make all the difference. But in almost every restaurant, everything is weighed against the time and effort and usability of that one preparation. Sometimes you do get really great food, but other times the food is only half of what it could be or the best meals don't make it to the menu because they aren't logistically correct for a restaurant.
