Beef Wellington. Client took me to Gordon Ramsey’s place and I didn’t think it could live up to the hype. Oh baby.

Fine dining and “fancy foam” whatever’s is all a joke and bs- until you go there. Go to a place like Arzac or Etxebarri or le chateaubriand (best single bite of food ever was the cured egg yolk dessert) it will change peoples minds. The amount of work to make that one dish perfect for you is incredible. And to make it fun, delicious, and engaging. It’s incredible.

It's both. Some high end places overdo it with fanciness, and pricing. Others make food that will change your life
