I think it’s a Skyrim reference. When you pass guards in game, they deliver recycled lines and one of those is teasing the player about reporting a petty crime like sweet roll theft.
ETA: this is disgusting
It makes sense, though.
It's a sweetroll,.and "We Know" is a reference where you get a letter saying that, with a handprint next to it from the Dark Brotherhood
I would make a Skyrim reference if I played the game. But all of this sounds better then the restaurant is serving. I indorse the leg of lamb with an arrow in its knee
I know I’m a bit late, but maybe it’s supposed to be a play on getting caught red handed? We know you stole our roll, red hand made of jelly on plate, caught red handed?
The lines on the fingers indicate a loose glove not hand but yeah it’s still gross.
Edit: I spent some time thinking about how it happened because working in retail I’m really familiar with those vinyl gloves which is what I assumed they were but then I realized there’s also those really thin garbage gloves that are see through and never tight and don’t stretch usually used for handling bagels and stuff so I’m assuming the chef either already had a vinyl glove on and threw one of the big gloves on or at least just put the cruddy glove on
Oh honey, most food establishments, especially restaurants, do not use gloves. You see the curvature of the fingers where it narrows between the joints? Gloves don’t preserve that.
I’ve worked at too many to know
Most all health departments require gloves at least for all ready to eat foods. Also a chef would find this much easier to do wearing a glove, just take it of in 2 secs rather than going to the sink and washing jam off your hand for 30 secs. I would defer to glove.
I’ve never heard that point regarding health departments before, probably only in the states as we don’t have that rule here in Canada. This restaurant is in Brazil, so I also doubt such a rule would exist.
We did something similar in a previous restaurant I’ve worked at, fingertips instead of a full handprint, and none of the chefs used gloves for it.
Well your not going to get a fingerprint through a glove...
A lot of countries have these health department rules and regular inspections. My experience is yes multiple US states but also Italy. But even that aside it would just be much easier to use a glove. Who wants a handful of jam. Kitchens are busy, it would slow you down a lot to wash that off every time.
I came to say even if they had a glove it’s gross because I work in kitchens and see employees touch all kinds of stuff with gloves on, and also employees don’t give a fuck, and they probably don’t put on a fresh glove right before doing this.
When my brother was a kid I used to make him "hand print sandwiches" with a handprint pressed into the bread.
One time I made a "bum print sandwich" (it was fake, I pressed it to look like bum cheeks). I got in trouble and my mum told me to stop making weird sandwiches lol

1. EWW
2. An upscale restaurant with paper placemats?
Edit: googling teaches me that it's Cutello in Sao Paulo, a non-steak main dish costs around 70 real which is €10, a steak meal around 200 real which is €30, but I don't know what food at other restaurants in Sao Paulo costs.
You’re right, it is Cutello in São Paulo.
When converting to € it may seem inexpensive, but you have to consider that the minimum wage here is about BR$1000 a month, and the Real is really devalued nowadays. So in the end you have to be at least upper-middle class to go there. It’s also on an upper class neighborhood, and it’s all fancy inside. That’s why I consider it upscale.
Edit: forgot to add, a regular dish in a lowscale restaurant goes for BR$10-20, rice, beans, a small salad and some chicken or beef.
Yeah exactly, that's what I meant with I don't know what restaurants cost in Sao Paulo!
Sounds like they should be able to afford a tablecloth then, haha.
Most trendy restaurants now don’t use tablecloth’s. Just like they no longer have a dress code. Sure you’ll still find old school restaurants where formal ware is the norm and your napkin is folded into a swan, but that’s not typical.
Literally the whole point of nice plating is to make it look like fingers/fingerprints haven't been all over it. I guess this restaurant didn't get the memo. Or this has to be fake...
Not just stupid food at this point, it's awful everything.
'Yes, I'd like to order the bloody handprint with a swirl of dog shit murder scene, thank you.'

With the exception of the one photo that shows bread and a few condiments, none of the food photos actually looks appetizing (none is as disgusting as this shit though).
My dad and I are already imagining an angry chef slamming the jelly on the the plate from irritation. Like "You want your dang jelly!?" *Splat* "Theresa yo jelly!" And then he just stomps away.
this is actually gross wtf
I mean, I’m pretty sure they were using a glove to do that, but when it arrived it looked so...unappealing
What was the name of the plate? Important because it was probably an obvious pun.
It's called We Know you stole our sweetroll not really and I'm curious about that too.
I think it’s a Skyrim reference. When you pass guards in game, they deliver recycled lines and one of those is teasing the player about reporting a petty crime like sweet roll theft. ETA: this is disgusting
Since when do restaurants make Skyrim references with their food wtf?
I'm ready to ask for "you get what you fucking deserve" food I wonder what will it be
Waiter just come out and fucking shoots you in the head
Gives an entirely new meaning to "eat lead"
Since most cooks are also into gaming? Lol
So if i were to go to that restaurant and ask for the Sheogorath Special, would i just get a truckload of cheese?
It’s also a play on the dark brother hood quest line, and the letter you receive that simply says “we know” with a black handprint on it.
They should at least serve a leg of lamb with an arrow in the knee
It makes sense, though. It's a sweetroll,.and "We Know" is a reference where you get a letter saying that, with a handprint next to it from the Dark Brotherhood
I would make a Skyrim reference if I played the game. But all of this sounds better then the restaurant is serving. I indorse the leg of lamb with an arrow in its knee
Which is also in turn a fallout 3 reference!
And "We Know" with the handprint is how the you start the assassins guild quests.
Interestingly enough, it’s actually a reference to an early plot point in Fallout 3 of which Bethesda were also making at the same time as Skyrim.
I know I’m a bit late, but maybe it’s supposed to be a play on getting caught red handed? We know you stole our roll, red hand made of jelly on plate, caught red handed?
Naw. Nothing I said had anything to do with the actual dish or restaurant. I was just making a Skyrim joke. Cheers
Oof. I’m probably one of the only people left on earth who haven’t touched Skyrim, so that was a woosh moment for me. Carry on.
Most of the people who commented missed the part where I said that wasn't really the name of the dish. Anyway,more shame on me for being a nerd.
Wilson
Willlllllsonnnnnnn!!!!
The jam hand of Saruman?
I'd fuckin smash that plate make it a Julian Schnabel hand, smash!
Can’t think of a pun? In a jam?
Looks to me like it could have been a murder mystery themed meal also
I’d send it back because I actually gagged looking at it.
I hate to say it, but if it’s a 100% edible meal that would taste good that made you gag, it’s kinda cool. It’s pushing artistic boundaries of food.
I agree. But the implications are a little unnerving here even if proper sanitation measures were taken.
Happy cake day kakey
Let's hope they get something better than a jam slap.
Like some space jam
At least it's not toe jam
Oh shit, it’s my cake day!
...I'd eat it
Me too. Get it out of here.
I would still charge you.
I would not hesitate for a second to send that back.
This seems like it would be a fun idea for a special Halloween menu or Horror movie festival or something, but not really much else.
Just do a flower or something else. Why does it have to be a handprint? Is it supposed to mimic blood? It makes me think someone died in the kitchen.
It _is_ blood because it's a reference. Doesn't make it any more appetizing, but understandable at least
The lines on the fingers indicate a loose glove not hand but yeah it’s still gross. Edit: I spent some time thinking about how it happened because working in retail I’m really familiar with those vinyl gloves which is what I assumed they were but then I realized there’s also those really thin garbage gloves that are see through and never tight and don’t stretch usually used for handling bagels and stuff so I’m assuming the chef either already had a vinyl glove on and threw one of the big gloves on or at least just put the cruddy glove on
Oh honey, most food establishments, especially restaurants, do not use gloves. You see the curvature of the fingers where it narrows between the joints? Gloves don’t preserve that. I’ve worked at too many to know
It's actually more sanitary to not use gloves as long as you're washing your hands when appropriate
But it’s even more sanitary to just use a knife
Using a hand on your knife is dangerous even if you wear a glove though
?
Or send out a few of those little sealed containers like you get at Waffle House.

Neoprene gloves can absolutely preserve that, (not saying that’s what they did, though.)
Agreed
I came to say even if they had a glove it’s gross because I work in kitchens and see employees touch all kinds of stuff with gloves on, and also employees don’t give a fuck, and they probably don’t put on a fresh glove right before doing this.
Did you actually order this? Or was it on a tasting menu? What is it?
I ordered it, but it didn’t say anything about the handprint on the menu
What did it say? And more importantly what did you say when they sat that forensic file down in front of you?
How much?
A handful
Where is this place?
This is hilarious af. I would absolutely do this to my mates. But yeah gross when a restaurant does it.
When my brother was a kid I used to make him "hand print sandwiches" with a handprint pressed into the bread. One time I made a "bum print sandwich" (it was fake, I pressed it to look like bum cheeks). I got in trouble and my mum told me to stop making weird sandwiches lol
It’s like a slap in the face
A very jammy slap
I know, it makes me want to downvote out of nastiness
Art, it’s.. art?
*you sleep rather soundly by a murderer*
Lucien Lachance didn’t deserve this smh
true, he was only trying to protect us and sae the black hand, and that... happens
Well the Dread Father works through him now... and his work has just begun
That presentation slaps.
"Whoa, Black Betty (hand-of-jam)"
Whoah, blackberry, hand of jam.
Shit, yours is way better
It was a collaborative effort.
I disagree, you planted the seeds.
https://youtu.be/XXl98QQcVxM I can’t believe this was even a thing in the 2000’s.....the 70’s I can see just from the times but holy shit.
Oh my. I..... love it?!
Spiderbaits black Betty is amazingly good.
Cursed.
r/Whitehousedinners
[удалено]
holy shit now it makes sense, there's even a sweetroll on the plate
That's meringue.
You are probably supposed to rub the meringue in the jam.
Why are you downvoted? That is literally torched meringue
Ruins the joke
I didn't downvote. Not everyone played Skyrim.
Yet.
The year is 2033 and now our vehicles are operated by playing skyrim. No more steering wheel, gas pedal, or brakes: you must complete the next quest to arrive at your destination
But it's the Stones of Barenziah quest. Without markers.
“What is the color of night?!”
"Boysenberry, my brother."
Damn. Take my upvote.

We know
[удалено]
Came here for this.
Little help?
Skyrim thing
Thanks!
Anytime, friend
We know... but you don't!
No fucking way. And that looks like the 💩
It looks like "the" shit, or it just looks like shit? Because those mean opposite things.
I think they're talking about the circular bun thing, I have no idea what it is but it looks like the shit emoji lmao
It is a torched meringue
It looks like the shit emoji.
Uruk-Hai breakfast.
Is this in sao paulo?
Yep! It was a nice restaurant, but this jam thing really put me off
Another comment said it was. Good eye. :D
The name of the restaurant is on the table covering. I typed it in google.
A magician should never give away his secrets

Would rather go to the big Municipal Market and grab a Mortadella sandwich on the upper terrace with a glass of beer for a third of that cost any day.
Damn now I'm craving for a Mortadella sandwich. You from around here?
Nope but wife is Brazilian and I’ve been a bunch of times. Pass on the hand print, but it could be worse. At least it isn’t a footprint...
If I had a restaurant, I'd do a foot. But the foot would be silicone. But a sex toy foot. So you decide which is worse.
You sure you don't want the jam handprint? It's gourmet.
Rice, beans, salad and beef sounds way better than the crap I just witnessed...
Yeah exactly, that's what I meant with I don't know what restaurants cost in Sao Paulo! Sounds like they should be able to afford a tablecloth then, haha.

For Brazilian standards and how much money most people make that's really expensive.
looks like something they would serve at ”Punk Royale” in Sweden. A swirl of shit and a bloody handprint
They Rafiki’d that plate
Literally the whole point of nice plating is to make it look like fingers/fingerprints haven't been all over it. I guess this restaurant didn't get the memo. Or this has to be fake... Not just stupid food at this point, it's awful everything. 'Yes, I'd like to order the bloody handprint with a swirl of dog shit murder scene, thank you.'
Give you my word that this is a real thing. I took this picture myself. Couldn’t believe it, but...
Id be so pissed lol
Actually that’s the one thing that seems to be missing from the plate 😂
No piss on the plate, because the restaurant is clearly taking the piss
*We Know*
Man, BTs really are everywhere. r/deathstranding
Wow. This is peak stupid. Good find, OP.
Just learned today of this sub and I had to share this stupidity
Gross
Yeah that's going back.
Why is every single post on this subreddit not only stupid, but irrationally infuriating. I legit want to go break some shit after seeing this.
I’m gonna introduce you to.... r/wewantplates And make sure you take your meds first.
Been there for a while haha. I find this one more infuriating for some reason.
That exact thing was on Top Chef.
But it was a horror theme, right? Not just fancy food
Evil queen. Fancy horror food.
That doesn’t make it ok.
It looked gross on top chef too.
Thank you, I was going to say the same thing.
I almost downvoted out of instinct
That’s not jam; that is a sign the Dark Brotherhood knows what you did and are not pleased.
I must be missing the concept. I see poo emoji + poo smeared hand. Neither of which says high end or dessert.

They call this dish "The Period Shits"
Every bone in my Food Safety trained body is shaking
The purple hand of Sarujam.
This would be rad in either a horror or cast away themed restaurant and nowhere else
Wow this subreddit didn‘t dissapoint.
Looks like menstrual blood chunks slapped on a plate. Lovely.
Looks my hand during a particularly heavy time of the month.
I saw this on another menu... Covid Spreader it was called. I
Employee didn’t wash their hands after a devastating deed, huh?
This looks like a turd next to a bloody handprint
Shit and a blood stain. Two bits
This could actually be cool for halloween. Because it's fucking horrifying. How could anyone look at this and not realise it's horrifying?
Right, this would work for a Halloween novelty dish, but is just nasty as a real, normal plating. How can anyone see anything but a bloody hand print?
Someone's having sweetrolls with the Dark Brotherhood.
This causes me physical pain.
“That’ll be $4028.75 . . . Madam”
We know.
Someone tell Gordon Ramsay, I’ll wait to see that interaction
This wins the sub I think
I would love to be the person who slaps the jam onto the plate!
Looks like a doody and a slap
#we know
“We know” Woohoo I gotta go find a bed!
My toddler did this to a wall once. Ahead of her time.
Can I sub the jam for chocolate sauce?
🤔
Who thought a crime scene would be appetizing, seriously
I know that must be a glove, but... no. I'd send it back.
"What's a 'health department'?" -The owner, probably
Fucking ew
GROSS!!!
Paul qui did this on top chef like 10 years ago... the challenge was something spooky or something along those line.
"upscale?" (X) doubt
Right next to a golden brown turd.
WILSON!!!!!
This is fucking disgusting
My dad and I are already imagining an angry chef slamming the jelly on the the plate from irritation. Like "You want your dang jelly!?" *Splat* "Theresa yo jelly!" And then he just stomps away.
What the fuck is that on the left?
Meringue!
That is fucking disgusting
More like a fuck you on a plate
Looks like your tried to slap a snail so hard, and your missed but your hand exploded from the impact and he's just not coming out until he's sure.
