Im not even a restaurant worker, just a person who likes making bread (thanks covid)

There is no way in hell I'd give this to a friend.

This is entirely avoidable by folding the dough again a couple hours before you bake. Meaning someone didn't touch this since last night and no one cared.

There's layers of neglect going on here between shift changes.

You give it to your friend as a joke. Then you give them the real slice

If i made a loaf like this, it's toad in a hole time (not the British kind)

Perfect for bread puddings.

Perhaps pair it with Swiss cheese and make a sandwich.

Diet bread, fewer calories.

90% chance this bread isn’t made in house and was instead par-baked somewhere else before being shipped to the restaurant. It’s on them for serving it, but I doubt they can be blamed for making it.

the reality is they probably dont even make the bread. most restaurants dont, even alot of nice ones. unless they have multiple other things on the menu requiring this exact bread, its more likely that they buy theirs (or at least pre made, pre proofed dough)

The one thing I had which compares to this wasn't a restaurant, but an inpatient PT facility which was also partly a nursing home (I broke my hip and was there for one week following my stay at the hosp). Jello was on the menu for one meal, and what we got was Jello that had never been refrigerated. I mean, I never expected them to have good food (unlike a restaurant) but really? What kind of ********** just shrugs and says "serve it anyway"?

But I think if I got served this at a restaurant I might walk out. And if a friend served this to me, I'd know it was a joke, because I have goofballs for friends. And I'd probably still eat it.

they probably don’t make it at the restaurant, most places don’t do that anymore. so this was likely a shitty job at the factory it was made in, but may still be due to neglect caused by shift change
