À la Minute

À la Minute is an expression used to describe a dish that is prepared right away when you order it.

This is in contrast to the usual, which is restaurant food that has been mostly “prepped” (and in fact often cooked) in advance of the customer entering the restaurant.

You could say it’s a fancy way of saying “short-order cooking.”

French: À la Minute
