Just to let everyone know, I don't go to places like this.

I am but a poor farmer, and know little of deconstructed nachos.

Let's just break shit and throw a bunch of powder and foam on the table.

FOOD!

This is straight outta an snl skit.

this looks like a 3rd graders art project.

MEAT TREE

Maybe If the onion itself was grilled or broiled.

It’s broiled at the end. But only long enough to melt the cheese

Total bullshirts. It’s leaking raw onion juices into a classic. Why even caramelize the onions?

I would at least coat the inside and outside with olive oil that has been sitting on low heat with cracked peppercorns, thyme, and oregano for about 30 minutes, and then grill it nicely before using it as a bowl.

I can’t speak to this one. I’m only familiar with Choi’s

This isn't so bad. We will hollow out an onion, put in butter and beef bullion and then wrap it tight and grill it. It's like a dry onion soup.

 

[Matren]

I aint even mad at that, plus its on a plate

SRSLY confused. What portion of what is happening is edible? It just looks like expanding sealing foam and sand.

What kills me is the two people across the table from each other both videotaping it instead of enjoying the experience they are overpaying for in the moment.

Just like literally everything and anything about new york......... there is absolutely nothing enjoyable about it. It is a display for new money morons to impress people with. If one does not film it... how will their friends know how cool they are for having experienced a bunch of minimum wage workers throwing sand and expanding foam down on a table before them, doubtlessly dirtying their clothes in the process.

Everything is. It's molecular gastronomy. Some of the top chefs in the world practice molecular gastonomy, like Ferran Adria (head chef at El Bulli, which was the world's #1 restaurant for years before Adria closed it), Grant Achatz (arguably one of the top 5 American chefs), etc.

So I guess just scoop the sand into your mouth?

Not sure, it would depend on how the chef intended the patron to eat it.

Well.................... it's a pile of unidentified powder. Probably milkshake mix from an MRE. Considering it's just blasted straight onto a table... One would assume the patron scoops the shit into his mouth.
