So you put it in a takeout container and garnished it with a lemon wedge? Seems like this was ordered in and not homemade

Real scallops should be eaten on their own or in shell with the "foot", because they have a "delicate" flavor. If they are wrapped in bacon, my guess is that they are actually Surimi ("fish goo") or Skate.

Looks good but the steak has no crust

You have all the tools to make this but not a proper plate? Figure your life out damn it

Somebody forgot to fry a steak and/or doesn't know how sous vide works.

Maillard: it's important.

Mmm, wasting 70 bucks on sweaty delivery steak and pretending you cooked it.

Bacon has more sear than the steak other than that it would be fantastic x

The bacon wrapped scallops steal the show! Two points of criticism, hopefully constructive!

  1. dry brine the steak with a decent salt coating 12-48 hours in the fridge before cooking. I can almost guaranteed a crispy exterior, if pan frying.

  2. Asparagus that large is mediocre. Aim for nothing larger than a #2 pencil, don’t be afraid to cut the hard ends off, Blanch them for a minute or two in boiling water, then into the frying pan where your steak was cooked for a quick sear. (Do this while your steak rests) Flavor them how you want, I love hollandaise or parmesan Robusto with a little salt and pepper.

The takeout container and what looks to be the desk in a hotel room make me doubt the homemade tag

I don’t know if this is an unpopular opinion but wrapping scallops in bacon ruins both the scallops and the bacon. Why eat a scallop if you’re going to coat the flavor in burnt pork and fat?

Looks yummy. But for some reason a rib-eye always looks wrong to me unless it is facing the other direction.

crank the heat up when searing steak next time, so it doesnt look gray

Why you plate in a plastic container fitted for a premade lid?

Come on, man, if you're gonna lie about cooking the food yourself, at least put it on a plate and don't leave it in the takeout container. Also, if I cooked that steak myself, I sure as hell wouldn't post it on the internet and would hide any evidence that I fucked a steak up this bad.
