@ChallengeDK presentation?!?!? if that was on a plate would you pay the same price? doubt it. I like Achatz and I respect him for EVERYTHING he has been through, however, this is a sloppy dish, the spoon drips and smears are fine but that crushed up freeze dried mousse destroys it.. makes the dish look like someone who enjoys cooking at home but has no formal training would present this dish.

Absolutely incredible. I would kill for ten minutes in a kitchen with him. Genius.

My question "what if hipsters ran restaurants?" has finally been answered.

WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE DESSERT?

@katirita1 When you have half of the experience of Grant Achatz maybe you can tell him that.
-
How did you get so lucky to have Grant make your dessert at the table?!?

Grant's probably thinking "Fkin hell I gotta get back to the kitchen".

You guys are lucky this wasn't inside the Matrix, or there would be no spoons either.

it almost seems as if chef achatz has an infinite amounts of stuff in each of those small bowls
I honestly cannot understand the comments to this video stating that this isn't cooking at that it's laughable. First of all, YES, it is in fact cooking; it's called presentation, and visuals are just as important as taste. Second of all, why is a creative use of the entire table as a plate laughable? I honestly cannot see why the fact that no actual plates are present makes this a waste or making the dish overpriced. Do you pay for the dish or do you pay for it to be on a plate?

@BeanieandCecil You're acting like the ingredients are really just random with no thought when a little insight can reveal how clever the dish really is. Presentation aside, there's only three main flavor profiles at hand: fruit/tart with the blueberries in their various forms, cream/rich with the mousse and ice cream, and earthy with maple and tobacco. The cool part is that each element is diversified in terms of textures.
And I think they're going to use spoons on it, lol.
