@AwantedNinja Wow, this Master guy wasn't even replying directly to you..so I wouldn't value his opinion too high in the first place.

Silly arguments on these comments - I to this day cannot decide if I prefer Alinea or Chipotle, for good reason: they are not comparable

[PlaneAddict96]

Perse means ''Ass'' in Finnish.

bJust trying to explain to the uncultivated. Now do you see the difference between Applebees or Tacobell and Per se(New York), l'Arpege(Paris), Noma(Denmark), les créations de narisawa(Tokyo), Mugaritz(Spain), D.O.M(brazil), Bras(Laguiole). Dont even trying undermining a worldwide phenomenon thats been going on for century.

-Words from a professional cook-

[Riverain96]

But Trying to compare both is simply unreasonnable. One is for conformt, and self-sufficiency. And the other, not only for a full sensual experience, but also poetic, philosophical, geographical, historical. For example, Rene Redzepi chef at Noma, works on a dish of pickling, salting, smoking, and raw. Thru this plate, he wants to put us on how and what the Denish ate on the winter of 1941 during the German occupation. Do some understand why gastro-cooking can be sociological also?

[Riverain96]

You do not prefer home or gastro cooking, even less trying to rank one of them. Its simply a questions of vues on food. When you go to these, comfort is not the main ingredient you're looking. The foodie wants to be chocked, by stimulation of senses. But some types of gastro cooking go even further, including concepts to triger our intellectual curiosity. Of course, i'm not purely defending gastro food. A lot of us, and me included, would not survive without our homecooked meals.

What does 'Best' supposed to mean anyway. / I suppose it's only proof of media projection and consumer acceptance. Human beings don't require a 9 course mean, nor is even remotely healthy. You wanna know what 'best' is? Good friends, good food and drink...at home.

[SethHesio]

Patrick Bateman would LOVE this place.
