The whole point is that he's transforming food so that you're like, "WTF is this crap? That's not food!" then you eat it and are completely blown away by the flavors.

If you're actually interested in what Noma is all about, check out Bourdain's entire episode on Noma. It's on Netflix. This guy is doing insane shit with food. There's a boat in the harbor in Copenhagen that's known as the "food lab." They do insane shit like fermenting food for like 3 months just to see what it tastes like. This is their tumblr of what they eat, which is pretty cool: http://nflfamilymeal.tumblr.com/

Intro to the Bourdain episode is here:

Watch it all on Netflix. Well worth the viewing.

I bet it tastes amazing, and I'd love to try it. If it sucks... oh well. At least it wasn't a shitty, boring meal that I'd had before but stuffed in my face without thinking about what I was eating.

Bees kinda freak me out but I'd still try that with completely open mind.

Hootie 08-20-2014 09:25 PM

seems like one of those things people rave about just to rave about because everyone else raves about it

not because they actually like it

I mean, who would like ANY of that shit.

I'll take a $7 Chipotle burrito and pay $20 for it rather than a $280 meal of that and get it for free.

You don't really have to collect bugs, or ferment fish parts, to make a decent meal. Many foods are very appealing without placing flowers on them.

****ing rubes.

NewChief 08-20-2014 09:28 PM

You know what I think is freaking gross? Most of you people are drinking/eating secretions from a cow's mammary glands on a daily basis. That shit is delicious though, right?

I bet their snot tastes delicious as well. Might as well try it, since you're hitting the udder puss.

cdcox 08-20-2014 09:29 PM

I've eaten mud eel, jelly fish, duck tongues, pig heart, cow stomach, and probably some stuff I wasn't aware of. I'm a little iffy on the mud eel, but the rest was fine.

Of course you don't have to in order to make a decent meal. But you CAN. And that's freaking cool.

Bone marrow is one of the best things I've ever eaten.

I just did the math, and a person who lives to 70, eating 3 meals a day, will eat 76,650 meals. Why not try something outside the box with a few of those?

So basically every now and then start eating the shit I find under my deck? Gotcha.

I hate this shit, it insists on itself. If they paid ME $280 I'd probably eat that stuff but not the other way round.

I get that some things that might seem gross could be tasty. I saw a video that actually makes me want to try spicy Lao deep fried tarantula. But some things are just tossed together for shock factor, or visuals.

yeah I'm probably really naive about this stuff I'm a pretty simple eater

not sure why I chimed in

And none of you bastards should use the fact that Bourdain named OKJ's as one of the top restaurants in the world as an argument in favor of KC's BBQ superiority if you dog on Noma, because he thinks it's one of the tops as well. If you think he's wrong about Noma, then he's probably wrong about OKJ's as well.
