“Through the magic of fat-washing, clarification and infusions, umami-heavy drinks that taste like specific dishes…”
“…will proliferate as our collective palate shifts from super sweet to savory. Already, in New York you can order a cocktail that tastes of Waldorf salad at Double Chicken Please in New York or a Caprese martini at Jac’s on Bond. Or would you prefer a Thai beef salad drink from the Savory Project, in Hong Kong, or an Everything Everywhere cocktail with smoked salmon-infused gin, vermouth and caper brine accented with everything bagel spice from the Anvil Pub and Grill, in Birmingham, Ala.?”

Isn't Waldorf salad made with apples and walnuts and a sugary mayonaisse?
well NYT's, YOUR collective palate may change, but mine wont. I know its hip, its fashionable, and its trendy, but I have absolutely zero desire to "Fat wash" or change from sweet to savory. I also hate Cocktails and will stick will a good whiskey, a nice merlot or a glass champagne now and then.
Sorry.
Liquid diets are all well and good, as for myself I look for science to produce meals in, shall we say, the opposite direction.

Rebel Yell neat please.
When I started tending bar the place had two of those translucent bottles with red liquid in the well so I made a disturbing number of tomato daiquiris. Ahead of my time…
They say "we" too much.
When I was young (and stupider than even now) and living in the city, I MIGHT have cared about this kind of crap, at least a little bit. Also, what does this have to do with eating?
I'll keep the Old Fashioned, maybe a Sazerac.
I can safely predict that I will not be one of those drinking savory, meat-flavored cocktails.
Oh we will, will we?
Ha!
I want my liquor to taste like liquor, not other things...
These fucking assholes really think it's going to just be business as usual. True, some of your colleagues may get robbed, pistol-whipped, beaten, raped, shot, or shoved in front of a subway train. But that's just Social Justice in 21st Century NYC. Have a drink!
I was telling my S.I.L. this weekend that the advance of cooking technology and cooking shows has led to a spate of Bro-cookery, most of it on YouTube, and most of which is pretty palate-disgusting to me. A lot of it is BBQ or grilling-related. I know they think they're tapping into something creative; but when somebody starts talking up the bourbon-honey-mesquite chocolate truffle sauce or something similarly offensive, my instinct always goes 'Gaaackk'. It's not innovation, its not a triumph of creation I want to say; You're confused.
“Already, in New York you can order a cocktail that tastes of Waldorf salad”
Ugh.
A cocktail that tastes like salad.
We'll all have one before downing our dinner pill at the Earth View Bar on orbital station 24F.
I suppose this is designed to mask the "flavor" of crickets and cockroaches?
In the misty past of the 1960s when I was a small child, my mother used to drink a cocktail called, I believe, a bullshot—beef bouillon and vodka. Knowing nothing of cocktails at age 6 it didn’t occur to me to ask if she actually liked it. (She switched to Chardonnay by the time I was of drinking age.) Seems like it would fit right in with this trend. Mom was 60 years ahead of her time.
I was fat-washing in the shower this morning.
Important lesson that needs to be reiterated yet again: Three people doing something in New York City do not, in fact, make a trend.
Rebel Yell neat please.

Or better yet, W.L.Weller.
Hard pass. And I'm not wearing brown in 2024, either.
Ron Swanson discovering there is a wrong way to consume alcohol.
Althouse, I'm curious if you've watched Parks and Recreation through? The 1st season is okay but it gets much better after that.
How about a Bloody Mary made with chitlins boiled in tomato sauce?
"Thai beef salad drink" AKA broth.
The Crack Emcee said...They say "we" too much.
The NYT is employing the royal (imperial) we similar to the Queen saying, We will defend Britain to the last man., even though she won't be there fighting with you.
Call me crazy, but none of the examples included "eating."
The women won't go for that shit.
Niven wrote about this in his Tales from Gavagan's Bar, in a story where an alien visiting earth gets told very firmly by the bartender that his meat flavored drink will have ONLY beef broth in it. Confuses some of the others at the bar. Bartender explains that on the first Earth contact with the alien planet, DNA samples were taken of the humans, and reproduced without consent for food use. A popular drink back on the alien's homeworld used human broth as its base. And while Gavagan was willing to go to great lengths to acommondate his alien clientele, he wasn't going cannibal.
