Post pretentious food

Fuck right the heck off

are these people mentally ill or something??? wtf...

The table is my canvas. The chocolate sauce, the brush.

Here's another dessert from the same restaurant. Just as retarded.

I actually like that, nice idea and presentation. If that's already too pretentious for you then I'll guess fine dining isn't for you.

Bait

That ones okay actually, it's a neat, fun little idea. It's more pretty than pretensious.

fucking kek I watched that again last night

I bet my pudding from Aldis tastes miles better.

>The current year
>Not being a gourmet artisan.

>The “smoke” course includes a molcajete filled with burning palo santo sticks alongside a volcanic stone bearing chicken thigh, chicken-liver mousse rolled in dehydrated huitlacoche and hoja santa, and a cube of coal-charred pineapple skewered with a skull pin.

ugh I hate when a dish has a title

unlike traps.

I wanna take that boy out for a nice dinner and a movie.

He looks like someone I'd share my malted milk with, if you know what I mean.

>paying for a 300 dollar meal just to crack your own egg and watch it cook

I don't know why you cunts seem to enjoy getting worked up over this. If you don't enjoy presentation on the more playful side just choose a more traditionalistic restaurant from one of the classic cuisines, it's just horses for courses.

...

...

Is that food or abstract art?

Yes

utterly retarded!

Shit like this is the reason I quit my job.

This is the most complicated summoning jutsu I've ever seen

...

shut up Kelly

I think the critique of the dish is kinda unwarranted.
The point is that its pretentious dish, thats what people pay for. Its a good thing.
>Man, wasnt that pretentious?
>I know, its great.

I don't know man, it's literally a single duck egg with some flowers and salad.

>Haha I love paying 300 dollars so I can eat pretentious food ironically and laugh at how dumb it is

I mean the main point is the experience and talking about, so all the fluff around the egg is a bonus.
Idk where you get the price tag from but yeah.

Normally I -like- the fancy presentations but this one is a little too much like some unused joke from the Simpsons.

Why does the bowl have those enormous rims?

Something about this makes me feel ill at ease but I can't quite describe it

The plate is a canvas.

from the thumbnail i thought it was gonna be an ice cube in there

Haha are you serious? I quit jobs for some dumb ass reasons but that's so dumb I respect it.

This is like the opposite of food porn.

Man, fucking Redzepi

+1

it's a fucking FRIED EGG

>Here you are, sir. That will be $139.95.

what is the point of this shit? most of it doesn't even look like it tastes good and it's probably $40 a plate too.

>Excuse us while we JUST your table

the ambiance, the show, the good company of your friends, the smiles from the waiters... it's all money well spent, my friend.

even gordon ramsay would yell at this fucking trash

I'm insecure about my class in society and am embarassed to enjoy eating at places like Taco Bell so I'll complain about food I will not only never see myself, but will be unable to appreciate it

>palette

Outside of baiting on this shit board, that's a sure fire sign of a fucking retard.

>muh premium shit

because sprinkling cookie crumbs and melted chocolate is something rich people need to pay for huh

yeah but it looks like shit. if the presentation involves a blowtorch or the cook flipping stuff in the air that's understandable, but most of this is just tiny bits of some kind of paste with weeds sprinkled on a huge plate.

>there is no in between paying an extreme amount of money for the emperor's new clothes and eating fast food

huh guess this is how trust fund babbys think

If that's true, then why did three separate people say was good?

Could it be that plating with tweezers doesn't magically make a meal look and taste good?

This is gay, I wish it was more like hibachi grill

I feel like I'm the only one that likes this webm.

t. tattoo ridden numale hipster scum

>main point is the experience
The main point is eating food that is leagues better than anything I could possibly cook myself. The ingredients may be good, but I don't want to pay the fine dining experience price just to eat a fried egg with spinach that I cooked myself.

>hand tattoo
like clockwork

What has this got to do with cleaning public toilets?

>Audible chucle

>That'll be $350

>emperor's new clothes
Sour grapes.

>this fucking thread

I've finally confirmed my suspicion that a majority of people on this board are uncultured tasteless plebs from hickville countie or ghettos whose idea of a good meal should absolutely require gorge-level platefuls of food made from scratch at home because muh simplicity and/or muh betterculinary skills

you're all hopeless but here's a bit of advice for you fucking failures because i'm optimistic like that: take your blinders off, open your goddamn minds, and experience food with together with your other senses instead of solely relying on how good it should taste and how much it'd fill your fucking stomachs

maybe then the world would be a slightly better place to live in and i'd actually not be revolted at the thought of sharing the air i breathe with all of you

Spoken like a true snob, really.

I'm assuming this is pasta?

I bet you wear clothes you fucking aristocratic son of a bitch.

You sir are a man of taste and class

I salute you

I've never been so repulsed. Are you actually supposed to pay to eat off a dirty table like a fucking animal

>yeah, give me the facehugger special
looks terrible.

>dirty table
Don't be so fucking melodramatic

I agree with you my good sir!
*tips fedora*

didn't quote

>triggered plebeians crawling out the woodwork

did I strike a nerve, you wastes of human resources?

it's not too late to change. read up on class and style, work hard and save up your money to experience better gastronomical concoctions at quality establishments.

you can't really call yourselves food enthusiasts if you're focused on pre-cooked, corporate-driven foodstuffs now, would you?

Didn't fucking think so.

An excellent rebuke my good fellow!
*gives reddit gold*

>read up on class

the only plebe here is you
you can only be born into class, this is the problem with this food, its all for jumped up proles with a bit of dosh trying to imitate what they think fine dining is

You literally bitched about us caring about how the food tastes. You don't are about the food, you only want a status symbol for you to post on Instagram
This guy gets it.

>mfw reading the comments

To all the morons shouting "pretentious", "scam" and other hateful, ignorant statements, it's obvious that you have no idea what cooking and food is about. Does that mean a New York city hot dog isn't considered good food? No. But this guy is reimagining food and changing the conventional way we think about eat. Sight, taste smell, etc, all come into play when you eat. Some of your best memories are centered around food, and a lot of how good you remember something "tasted", you remember more about the people and experiences around you than even the flavors. Not only does his food taste incredible, he plays, he discovers, he experiments, and does things you lot would never even think of while standing in line for something you're just used to eating, filled with salt and sugar, told is good by someone else, shovel in your mouth, and a million other ways of dulling your dining experience. The reason he's voted best in the world are for some of these reasons. I would gladly pay hundreds for his food because at the end of the day, he is giving you something you will probably experience once in your life and is the reason (even in a pretentious, ego driven word as the culinary one can be) that chefs are called artists. But go on then, keep dribbling about how you are a better, more genuine critic of "real" food while this guy keeps collecting awards, respect, recognition and $$ while you post mean comments on YouTube and feel proud knowing you know how to cook a steak.

I would try it depending on how overpriced it is. Ambience is nice.

compare this dish youtube.com/watch?v=8KwhJcxYdV4

to the sloppy stuff in here superficially they look similar but the above video is both simple and elegant, and still manages to look appetizing and fresh

>You don't (c)are about the food, you only want a status symbol for you to post on Instagram

Way to put words in my fucking mouth, degenerate.

I didn't say anything about posting fine culinary dining experiences on any form of social media now, did I? If you wanna do it, fine, it's your life. What's important is you experience and appreciate the moment and let it be a part of your history as a human being.

And this guy didn't get it

>you can only be born into class

You actually think that people are just naturally classy? No, you idiot. They grew up LEARNING it from their parents and/or educators. Has your brain malfunctioned and is unable to store/rewrite information that you can execute for future use? Are you unable to change the mistakes you've made in your life? You're able to join the thread, so I guess it still works.

You're fucking hopeless, but because I am an optimistic person, here's more advice to steer you in the proper direction.

>They grew up LEARNING it from their parents
not exactly its bred into them due to generations of living a certain way.
tryhard new money always looks so goofy when they pretend they can "learn" or purchase class by consuming things they perceive as classy.

maybe its just a yank thing to honestly think you can "change" your class so easily, maybe because your entire nation is full of redneck rubes with no dignity or culture

this

Post your syck tattoos breh B)

I'm using this as pasta, thanks faggot.

and what is so terrible about being interested to living a more respectable lifestyle?

at least the person is attempting to be better. telling them to just stop because you're embarrassed at them being goofy-looking and "tryhard" wouldn't help in the grand scheme of things.

and i agree that that it wouldn't be easy to change one's perception of class, but it's damn worth it to try, and that it is still possible to do so at any age

these are extremely pretentious but they're so relaxing to watch with sound

>The chocolate sauce, the brush
That doesn't make sense. The chocolate sauce is the paint. Your dickbeaters are le brushe.

>at least the person is attempting to be better.
because they aren't really trying, but rather they are trying to buy their way into "class" without the effort involved
also plebs are scum and don't deserve anything upper class
go eat your sloppy hot dogs and sit down

joke on you. I used to wash the dish for living

>the effort involved
>I was born special to classy rich people!

Such effort.

Now close up that garage and revv the engine. We both know you're sick of living.

I know man I even thought it as brush, corrected myself to paint, and then typed it as brush anyway.

I read this whole thing in Ernie's voice

That's an unfair assumption to those who are actually trying to be better. Yes, it's unavoidable that some people might opt for the easy way and just pretend, but it's better to just assume that they are actually trying, just to maintain the survival of a higher-standard in living.

That way they can be corrected and actually respect your opinions, with a higher chance of them emulating the said opinion.

Plebs are scum, I agree with that too, and believe they are needed to exist to actually define what it means to live better. The objective though, is to not strike a balance between the two, but to limit their numbers so that as a tool, people who are living better can actually explain HOW they're better.
