I don't care what ethnicity or how famous a cook you are, I'm not paying $300-500 for any damn meal. The only exception is for an anniversary, and most of the women I've dealt with would've been cool with a 8pc, biscuits, and some jalapeno poppers from Williams Chicken.
What’s williams chicken ?

Menu cost 20 racks?

I doubt it, unless they're counting the excess henny that was bought with the sole intention of re-selling lol. They're catching pleas and playing victim now, on clockwork.

Chefs do expensive personal/travel/event menus all the time. Top tier restaurants have $300 menus. What they don't have are basic dishes with Henny thrown in. To me this is another example of certain people making a mockery of perceived black interests/tastes and charging a premium, expecting black people to treat this like a status symbol.

He's doing nothing different than any and every chef out there, but for some reason clowns wanna blow the breh spot up, like they don't splurge on shyt that cost between $300-$500 that they really don't need.

If you have a chance to milk a mfer for some bread, anybody with business savvy would do the same thing, but that's what the twitter/Tik-Tok generation doesn't get.
100%.

Bet it was Black folks calling him out. They think it's OK to elevate other races cuisines but somehow wrong to elevate ours.

That's what high end dining is. You take familiar shyt but add a level of artistry to it that doesn't exist at your local steakhouse.

If Marcus Samuelson did this I doubt this would even been a discussion. Where are the accolades, the reputation that tells me yourn craft is work $300 to experience?
