My favorite is the one where the french restaurant famous for its eggs benedict changes ownership, and the new owner keeps the same chef, but changes the decor, including the plates and silverware. A critic comes in and immediately says the eggs benedict are not as good as before. The owner is irate and yells at the chef, demanding to know what has changed about the recipe, and the chef tells him that the old chrome steel plates were the secret behind the dish. The owner is bewildered and asks why the plates would matter? The chef replies....
"There's no plate like chrome for the hollendaise."
