Vent: The week we ran out of shallots for the special...

Our supplier shorted us, and the special was a shallot cream sauce. I had to caramelize a mix of red onions and garlic with a pinch of sugar to fake it... and three regulars said it was the best version yet. Ever had a backup plan work out better than the original?

Oh, I've been there. Roast them whole until the skins are black, the insides get so sweet.
