It's called decadent human waste cooks LARPing at the head chef of Louis XVI at Versaille.

You're not an artist. You don't change lives. You cook food for a living. You're a cook. Your customers pay for the opportunity to LARP as medieval French nobles while your waiters dance around them like whores so you can laugh all the way to the bank.

I don't quite understand what you're saying. Perhaps you should learn more English in your ESL class and come back to us when you score higher than 92 on TOEFL.

Just search Central Lima Peru, and then say shit like that.
Also, traditional fine dining is dead. And if there's a restaurant that still does the basic shit like rack of lamb, and lobster bisque or random smeared shit like the picture it's because old people with money still go there because that's what they consider fine dining.

Thanks for the input. You have a good point.

I don't think you should sell lies to people. I believe that the best food of all is easy, affordable and cooked at home with love. Fine dining bastardizes food culture by creating the illusion that wholesome food is inaccessible to the masses.

Top tip: if you live in a country that uses dollars for currency you probably will never experience fine dining unless you get a passport.

i dont think u can just lump all fine dining together. There definitely are some pretty rarted fine dining restaurants though.
that being said, i think you have the wrong attitude toward this

I disagree, whilst fine dining must be filling and delicious as a minimum it has value beyond that. Partially this is in the availability and quality of ingredients - truffles and foie gras taste good.

But I also think good fine dining has an intellectual thread, on food combinations and pairings, theatre and visual concepts, and a means of displaying abrast inspiration on a plate - exemplified by landscapes that inspire dishes for example.

I think in fine dining you also have more room to play, and to try to iterate on interesting ideas to see if they produce something of value.

That said, fine dining is not an excuse for ponce, and there's definitely a lot of vacuous and mediocre fine dining.

But, on balance, fun has to be part of eating, I can't eat the same thing more thanonce a week, and equally I can't hace classical cuisine every day - even I get bored of Tournedos Rossini eventually. Food is more than just sustenance.

The owner of Central is a boarderline biologist in his vision to bring the foods from rare places to the public. To bring awareness of the biodiversity of his country.

Also, how is it traditional french plating? Have you even seen most of the dishes?

I get what you're trying to say, that it does seem to be a little pretentious, but these chefs are masterminds in the culinary world, theres a reason why they can have a tasting menu and still make tons of money. Also, most of the fine dining chefs have other restaurants that do serve typical restaurant food.
At the end of the day everyone has their own vision when dining out. That's why a hole in the wall rib shack can technically get a Michelin star, and it has happened many times around the world.
