100% this. The chain places, which i tend to avoid, dont seem to actually cook much on site these days. I heard that even the Ivy, which opened a couple of years ago, where you'd expect a level of service dont even cook steaks on site. They cook them at the Leeds one and then reheat them in the Harrogate one. Dont even get me started on the likes of Marstons and Mitchell and Butler, pre packaged ingredients, flung together, stuck on a plate and then served up with a 20 quid ahead bill.
