The Chicago Tribune's dining staff has come up with nine phrases they think should be banned from restaurant menus.
A few samples:
--"World famous"
Having a German tourist say she liked your chicken salad does not make it world-famous.
--"Kobe burger"
If it grazed in Idaho, it's not Kobe. It's only Kobe if it comes from the Kobe region in Japan. [ ... ]
--"Garden Fresh"
Rick Bayless garnishes with microgreens grown in his Bucktown garden. He has the right to say garden fresh. You don't, Subway. [ ... ]
--"Melt in your mouth"
If a piece of steak literally or even figuratively melts in your mouth, there's a good chance it's not steak.
