Sheep-Goats posted:Yeh maybe, but honestly how else can an expensive place differentiate? Cooking a piece of beef or making a sauce is something any decent cook can handle just fine. Maybe a top place can afford nicer ingredients. Most of what they offer is presentation and service so what do you want them to do, just slop it down? Presentation is important, but a plate doesn't have to be some art project to look appealing. In my opinion, everything on a plate should have a reason for being the way it is beyond "it looks pretty", and many fancy restaurants accomplish this with no problem. Basically my point is there are more types of "top/fancy places" beyond the standard french multi-course type, and there is a huge gulf of other ways to present food between "slopping it down" and that over-the-top dessert video someone posted on the first page. yeah I eat ass fucked around with this message at 08:51 on May 9, 2015 |

Neither of those beef dishes are really over the top though. Just a minimum of care gets you there. So long as the food isn't taller than it is wide I don't usually have an issue.

Grappa in Park City. Biggest aged strip steak I have ever eaten. In fact it was the first one too big to finish in one seating. We are talking John Candy sized steak. Holy gently caress the pork belly too....

I have eaten at Guy Savoy, L'Ambrosie, L'Arpège, L'Astrance, Le Meurice, Le Pré Catelan, and Pavillon Ledoyen. I think Pavillon Ledoyen was the fanciest. It was a pretty great trip though. Two weeks and I think every dinner was at a michelin star restaurant including the previously mentioned which are all 3 star. For lunch we usually went to a place called Chez Denise which isn't fancy at all but has sort of French country faire.

jarofpiss posted:i went to smith and wollensky once and they served bad cocktails and the food was mediocre. it was also filled to the gills with baby boomers My experiences with them have been pretty much the same as yours, and while the food was good it didn't blow me away like I expected it to. Maybe I just have bad luck with them, since most people I talk to seem to love that place. Had a much better experience at Frankie and Johnny's (the little one at the corner of 45th and 8th), which is probably one of my favorite places to get a steak. I think the fanciest place I've eaten is the Four Seasons. The food was excellent and the service was great without being overbearing like it can be at high profile places like that. Also the meal was free since my sister was working with them at the time, so that may affect my opinion a little bit.

Before I answer, does a church count? Because I ate the Body of Christ there and it was real fancy also now I'm forever saved from the fires of eternal damnation.

The best meal I ever had was at a place featured on Man vs Food. Nosh, in Portland Maine. I had a $20 fois gras cheeseburger. It was loving amazing, the perfect blend of bullshit rich people food and good eats. The restaurant Duck Fat down the street where everything is deep fried in duck fat is good too.
