Menu From "World's Best Restaurant": Looks Like Mostly Crap That I Wouldn't Eat
Rapper and food TV show host Action Bronson just posted an Instagram reportage of a meal in the best restaurant in the world*—Noma, in Copenhagen, Denmark. 24 courses with ingredients that go from flowers and sea urchin to ants and grasshopper. Noma has been named best restaurant in the world several times already. Its food is based on the search of the best local ingredients to cook them and present them with extreme care and respect. A full meal at Noma is around $280. * Of course, "best restaurant in the world" is an arbitrary title by one publication—the British magazine Restaurant. But it's definitely one of the very best in the planet. |

Not a single one of those plates are under $50, I'm guessing.

Those are disgusting except the filet-o-fish one which looks tasty.

Well, except Hungry Man Dinner, but blame Swanson for that one.

That's pretty shallow satire. "Plating isn't everything" isn't a valid criticism of these kinds of restaurants. In my broad experience they put flavor & technique first; presentation is just that.

It's not just plating. One of those dishes had lemon lime Gatorade spheres in it. Lemon lime Gatorade spheres don't just happen, you know. There is a technique involved.

Interesting..people getting all out of sorts about eating ants. ****..think about eating an egg..some gelatin/larva like shit that just came out of a chicken's ass. If you had never seen or eaten either..you would most definitely eat the insects first.

There are a lot of things that I would eat if I had to. Hell, if we crash landed in the Andes, I'd eat you. But I wouldn't pay $50 a plate for the honor.

Ants represent the "working class"..the rich eat them for their profits. Power always stems off the backs of cheap labor. Paying $280 for a meal ..is because you can. Eating an animal live....similar to big game hunting. How many pictures do you see with megalomaniacs..posing with a lion they shot? On a level playing field..the lion wins 100 out of 100 times. The world isn't what most people think it is....this has nothing to do about "eating a nice steak" Last edited by BlackOp; 04-06-2015 at 03:32 AM.. |
