"Excuse me waiter, I didn't order this"
LMAOO
At alinea, you don’t necessarily have the option to choose what you order. You basically make reservations and pay, then you show up and basically just eat whatever menu they have set that day (the menu changes daily). Funny joke though
Casey Baker haha
@@Frogbjb I know if I'm paying I choose what I eat.
Disturbed One87 you can’t here it’s a course meal
oh yeah i forgot to say, could i get it to go please?
Tom -"sure, we'll pack the table for you"
Ignacio Sandoval -that would total up to 50 grand thank you...
lol
Tom they don't give takeout
@@YouEatHam80 No shit Sherlock.
I'd like to see video footage of the customers actually eating the dessert.
Perhaps they had to lick it off the tablecloth?
coralarch not cloth
I'm thinking the table was cold or the Frozen stuff they put on the table at the end solidified the chocolate so they could just pick them up
@@an-insane-llama I'm way late on this, but neither of those is the case, you just eat it with your spoon, and treat the table like a plate.
@@ltsBoxes What? Won't that be messy?
75% presentation, 25% restaurant employees laughing in the kitchen when they peek at the customers trying to figure out how to eat it.
+Taiyo mn Brilliant! I think you nailed it!
"I FIGURED IT OUT!!!"
*FLIPS TABLE*
"ART!"
Lick it off
By the handful
You’re not supposed to eat it... you gotta admire the art and take pictures
Is it just me or those white sauce circles just magically shaped themselves into square shapes?? It's odd I keep looking and it's the same
It's due to the weave of the cloth......cover, that the sauce is being applied. Surface tension is holding the edge of the sauce .
kev d than this is clearly not your cup of tea;)
Simon Davies ...I just... I don't want to believe that..
I totally had to go back and double look, lol I thought I had missed something
Yea its because they are induced with a powder from the rectangular fruit called squaras.
I have never seen the term "we will get this for the table" taken so literally.
I love how he says "have fun" at the end, which is realy what Achatz's dining is all about!
to me seem more a restaurant for wannabe idiots
I ordered chicken.....
You don’t order food here my dude. Its a 20 course tasting menu.
@Swiit Lime I work in one of the best Sushi restaurants in Texas and I still eat KFC. Stop acting like a snob
😂
✨💆♂️✨
"Need to whip up dessert in a hurry? Dump a bunch of ingredients on the tale and eat them off the table like an animal you piece of shit"
Lil' Biiiits
Sugar Jay well done for copying a other persons conment
"Sorry. We ran out of plates after your 20 courses."
XD
Lmao!!!
Here after watching the menu
Same. Looking at thos after the end feels both interesting and unsettling
"s'mores" is on alinea's secret menu. you can only order it once in your life though.
It's really frustrating me that the comments are saying that they'd prefer it on a plate or that's a mess? The point of Alinea is the experience. That food can transport you to a different place. The point of this dessert is not to have you're classic chocolate lava cake on a plate. Your dessert literally becomes an edible piece of art. Grant has always questioned the notion of "you can't play with your food". Why can't we? Food is there to be enjoyed and like any other profession, he is pushing the boundaries of what "cooking" is
So what is the socially acceptable way to eat that? I just find it baffling
@@randot6675 With a fork and spoon
Grant explains it in Lecture 6 of the Science and Cooking series at Harvard. It really has nothing to do with anything he did to the food. It was a unique mistake that the pattern in the plastic table cloth they use for this course just happens to form those corners.
This "dessert" is known for it's element of surprise. They used to drop a bowl of chocolate that would be filled with goodies. When they nonchalantly cracked open the larger pieces at the end, I was like "Ah what's the grand finale?"
And I realized the custard everyone started to forget about ... and thought it would be another glaze or sauce, that was poured into the glass, actually turned into a solid during the duration of the presentation and they finished with a creme brulee ending.
Culinary theatre - this sure is!
It's shit.
Next level:
- The chef climb on top of the table, pulls his pants down and takes a huge dump at the center of table.
LOL.And they would eat it cause it's expensive
You still have to do the spoon smear
this comment is way underated
It is finger licking good
are you dumb or what
I'll just get some Ben & Jerry' at the 7-11
I agree that when you go to Michelin type restaurants, it's not about quantity but quality and an experience for your tastebuds. Desserts are first all about presentation which is an art on itself, but doing these directly on the table provides mostly visual entertainment, getting around it is another matter!
Regardless you’re going to eat a huge amount of food. If each dish is maybe 2-5 bites, stretch that over 20 courses, that’s a crazy amount of food.
I don't care how pretty that looks, I still would have preferred it on a plate.
100% agree on that
+Straddllw Yeah but then you don't get the stars from whatever morons organization decides that shit.
+Straddllw the point is for it to be communal so the whole table shares the dessert
+Leonar12345 Its the unique experience at the restaurant. This is something that you will go and tell your friends about and something that will earn you the stars.
Habanosify yeah, it is a unique experience. that's the whole point of restaurants like Alinea. You go there are have food that you wouldn't have anywhere else because very few chefs are this creative with their cuisine.
and stars aren't earned by popularity.
Amazing unbelievable professional top class art work! I cant believe how in sync two people could be to create one beautiful masterpiece!
creative it is but its also so unnecessary lol....just give me a well thought out plated dessert over this fiasco.
Being the 20th course, they're probably happy to just look at it.
Being that the portions are probably one-biters, I would bet that some might be hungry af still lol
Nah this place is mainly experiences and using all sense so youd provably be super hungry
They have a silicone table cloth covering the table and the texture of that silicone makes the liquids turn into different shapes depending on their densities.
How the hell are you supposed to eat all that? Scrape if off the table cloth? It looks sloppy and barbaric.
You use silverware lol. The table becomes the plate, It is a silicone mat they lay out before the 'plating'. It isnt a tablecloth.
This is so about the experience! How much fun would this dessert be? Think back to when you were a child at dessert time, you wanted everything! To me this takes me back to dreams of mountains of ice cream sundaes, candy covered trees, rivers of chocolate, and cotton candy clouds that rained gumdrops and m&m's, but now has evolved with age. Truly creative!!!
“Are you the head chef” lol i dream to go to this place and meet Grant! So fortunate!
this video is great! ill go drive to my local mcdonalds and grab a double cheeseburger and some nuggets
"Ummmm chef can you stop putting shit on my table and give me a plate!!"
I give Grant huge respect for being one of a small few who stepped out of the typical culinary world filled with simple techniques and lack of creativity to creating a one-of-a-kind experience that has never been done like what was done in the video before. His goal was to create an experience unique to only his restaurant and he achieved it marvelously. To those bashing his creativity is ignorant to how the industry works. This is a tough industry to be known and unique because its filled with too many aspiring chefs who want to be where Grant, as well as many other accomplished chefs, are currently. So, think twice before you try to act like you know better.
I'm not trying to sound rude, but it's demeaning to us aspiring chefs when someone bashes a chef's hard work.
Christine J
Poor baby
it is simply pretentious.
It has been done before you dumb broad.
Thank you for being one of the few people who get it unlike these other assholes. They basically think that creativity is bad. Alinea is awesome and I can’t wait to work there
@@BFrydell yeah you call us assholes. We are the dumbfucks and pay $300 for this crap.
I can do that on my dining room table....Hold my beer.
You're Sweet gets smack by mother*
You can shit on your table.. Nothing more
😂 i may have thought the same
Next concept is licking food of the bottom of the chefs shoes. It will be worthy of another michelin star
the answer to the big question!!!: the squares are done by preparing the blanket with special binding essences
*Putting food on the table* taken to a whole new level
they left out the bit where they put the plates in front of each guest before smashing them into tiny pieces.
and this is how my toddler makes her plate at the dinner table!
aww your sweet
howtobasic should work here.. he would be amazing
It’s refreshing to see all the hateful comments as it reminds me that the people of this country still do not have a grasp of what creativity is, and therefore chefs like him will keep staying at the top because he has remained his status of going against the norms. You all think this is an attempt to be pretentious, however I challenge you to actually do some research on him and the restaurant so that you can understand that it is simply an expression of the chef who always felt bounded by the scale of the plate and the rules of normal cooking.

True
Those that are saying that this is stupid, you obviously haven't been to a Michelin starred restaurant. It's not just about the food, it's about the experience. These chefs are passionate about food and what they do with it.
Call me unsophisticated if you want, but this seems unnecessarily outlandish and pretentious. If you have fantastic flavours, you don't need stunts like this.
i know right, this is the definition of pretentious
KaregoAt alinea was voted as the best restaurant in the world once so I'm sure it tastes good
KaregoAt this is why it's a Michelin starred restaurant. It's not just about the food, it's about the experience.
I mean, I don't know about y'all but I get a better experience eating from an actual plate than by scraping droplets of sauce from my tablecloth.
you say that because you're poor, this is rich people stuff, their bored with their money so they wanna try new things lol. it really is more for the experience and yea it's unorthodox but to call it outlandish and pretntious, i dunno about that. there's a reason why it's ranked as one of the top restaurants in the world and has earned mutiple michelin stars. and alinea is known for the artistry with food.
It looks good but seems like you would waste a lot of it trying to scope it from being smeared all over the table and I wouldn't like a burned creme brule to the point of it being black like that.
+random fun times lmao at not enjoying a burned creme brulee. literally means burnt cream
Love how everything has a purpose on this table. You truly couldn't add or take away anything to make it more perfect! Stunning.
"Can I just have mine in a bowl please??.... with a spoon?.... like a normal person?"
FR tho, when the round dots turned into squares... that blew my mind. Then I thought "imagine the MESS on that table when people are done with that"... what a weird way to serve dessert.
Every time I watch Alinea plate anything, I LITERALY start to choke up and hold back tears because of the beauty on its own (don't even get me started on the skill involved). However when you know the story behind the head chef, and the health sacrifices he makes in order to make every dish happen it is truly incredible, and tear jerking, to watch these feats of majesty. I have followed this restaurant for a while, and their incredible skill of manipulating simple ingredients is amazingly innovative and the creative mindset of the head chef is a mindset I strive to instill in myself every day. As soon as I am able to afford a trip to Chicago and I am able to get off of work, this is what I will plan my trip around. I look forward to Chicago because of Alinea and the wonderful ideas of Grant Achatz (not to mention the deep dish pizza). Hopefully I will meet this incredible culinary team soon. Best of luck Alinea and GODSPEED!
+Ben Horak The guy is a hack.
A question👋🏻. How do you guys eat that?
+lee dan bi That's what I'm wondering. It looks really cool, though.
+lee dan bi I've watched a few videos like this but none have shown it being eaten =\
You take off your clothes and rub it all over yourself. Then you lick it off each others skin.
8bitpineapple I died I’m my car bro😂
Looks like an orgy..byo boobs and dks.
A whole group eating from a table? What are the people suppose to do, all grab a spoon and dig in? Dirty pigs.... This is the proof of a restaurant who wants to earn a star by being extravagant, not by serving a perfect dinner....
I think I need a guide to eat a dessert on the table
SIGA map and compass?
Because putting things into your mouth is more difficult when it comes off of a table rather than a plate
Where can i buy the grey silicon mat?
Next time they will start eating on the floor like birds and call it a revolutionary idea, haha.
There's already something like that. To make it worst. You have to eat in the dark. 0.0
I'd love to see that! Lol 😂😂
I just watched Grant's Chef's Table episode. Remarkable.
⚠️🚨Spoiler alert 🚨⚠️The Table cloth is a giant edible crepe. Once decoration is done, the crêpe is rolled up, cut and served on a regular plate🤗
They just threw some blueberries and dumped some cream straight onto the table???? Is this supposed to be art? It doesn't look good, more like someone just dropped the actual meal!! And how much food got wasted in the centre of the table where people couldn't reach??? wtf???
Open your mind. You only have 1 measly little life so you might as well try new things.
I would have loved to see how they ate that
The longer I watch it, the more perplexed I become. How is the chocolate squaring?
This is brilliant, like an abstract work of art created in real time on your table. And you can even eat it!
Ah yes I love to have my food poured and smeared on a table. Next restaurant they'll just dump your shit on the floor "its ART"
its clear your used to eating at mcdonalds lol
You are the sucker reason they can charge $500 for stupid shit like this. But hey, it's your money dude.
All art is that way. Paintings that a 2 year old can do are worth millions now.
sirmolio Moron
Lol, Contemporary art. Some restaurants ask silly questions like "would you like a table sir?"....I'm like no, no...we came to eat on the floor, Carpet for 5 thanks.
I make this every night for my son
hahahahahahahahahaahahaha
As the stuff that gets poured into the glass cools, it becomes more stable.
I like how all the square pools of sauce align in the same direction
“Chef! We’ve run out of plates!”
*chef looks at table and smiles*
I found this fascinating but Is there a video on how to eat this labor intensive dessert?
A question I posed to my culinary students. Is it ok that they touched the ready to eat food with their bare hands...?
@kevin42253 Wonderful miracle of thermodynamics, not sure what they put in there but it allows the chocolate to cool faster on the thinner edges as gravity pushes the circular chocolate down.
half of us are watching this and thinking of 3 letters....
lsd

I must say that I have personally been to the new renovated version of Alienia and it was f###ing amazing I wish I could go back
idk, I had the firey banana dessert thing once. It was pretty frickin neat.
This is seriously artwork.
How come that poured chocolate can shaped into square?
I was wondering the same thing
+shaq newton I had read article about this matter on google. its about the cover material their used.
+hakimi badrul link to that article please please
hakimi badrul thank you thank you
+hakimi badrul Yeah I was wondering that too jaja. I was thinking, "Maybe I'll try on the kitchen table tomorrow" jeje. I figured the table had something to do with it. I'll check the link soon!
the first world has become so ridiculous lately
Lot of bored stupid ppl for sure..I dont mean u.
lately, yup)
@@nogoglobal imagain having mouth cancer loosing your ability to taste, eating causes you extreme pain. Yet you open one of the most prestigious dining experinces despite that has ever existed. A dinning experience blending science art and food. Boredom maybe. Stupidity not at all
Bus Boys be like “God fuckin Damnit!”
@TheKaty37 they actually serve this on the silicone mat so it's very easy to clean they took a whole thing away after we finish
as a chef i'm just glad that this sort of pretentious bullshit is on the way out. rustic and simple food is on the way back and no amount of liquid nitrogen shenanigans is going to stop it.
you are not a chef you are just a cook
VA51L lol no. actually went to school for it and have a degree
***** well i guess than that you should know that it's not all about filling your tummy but also the taste and experience...of course you wouldn't eat this kind of food in a daily basis though so people will still continue eating simple food anyways but maybe on a special occasion try something different and special like this
VA51L implying simple foods are not tasty. im sure this tastes delicious but it serves no practial purpose. for me the true test of skill is what you can prepare with the least amount of ingridients and time and still make it delicious.
and from my experience these kinds of dishes never live up to the hype, not to mention they're expensive as shit
I was hoping I wouldn't have to scroll down too far to hear someone echo my thoughts on how pretentious this is. It would just look like a fucking disgusting mess afterwards too. Imagine walking into a fine dining restaurant and the table is covered in chocolate and sauces? It would look like a fucking 2-year-old got a hold of the hersheys syrup bottle again. Fucking stupid.
This looks really interesting! I don't think I'd have it more than once, but it seems like a neat experience
and how does the light brown sauce just naturally spread into soft square-ish shapes? :O
I didn't notice that until you said something and now my mind is blown.
If this is supposed to be art then that's great, but just text me a picture of it to look at later then put all of mine in a bowl so I don't have to lick it off the table like a rabid dog for $500.
Sometimes on the search to being 'Out of the Box' or being Creative one can actually go extremely over the top. As much as I enjoyed watching the creation of this art-food, I know I would have been irritated trying to eat it.
I've eaten it and it wasn't irritating at all. It was the best presentation and dessert that I've ever had well worth the trip to Chicago to eat at Alinea.
Try using the provided spoon
So gross artongant useless Fake good idea ridiculous dégénérescence of cooking then thy think they are genius liké this stupid ballon 🎈 this Guy really think hé IS Big shot its sad Big prétentious mess on table abd peoples in zxctasy its just ripoff
Honestly stupid anal square dot.then from large circle to small dote to fibish broken Frozen merringue then After 15 minute of that freack show on thé end look liké garage Can on Ur table are not enough for u wake UP call ??? Noooo
I typed in pretentious restaurants and this came up. How appropriate.
This looks incredible.
The haters have obviously not eaten at a high end restaurant before. Food is art. That's why menus are done is such a way to be appealing to the eye. Chances are, if the dish looks beautiful then it probably will taste just as beautiful. An ugly and ill prepared dish is unappetizing and then it becomes difficult to get past that to attempt to eat it. It has nothing to do with pretentiousness. I love a well prepared burger from In N Out Burger as well as high end food sculptures.
Michelin stars are for chefs what oscars are for actors, or a high zagat rating for a fast food joint. At restaurants such as Alinea, you aren't just paying for some guy in a jumpsuit cooking you a meal...you are paying to enjoy a culinary experience from a highly trained and qualified chef who has spent years studying and honing his craft.
You wouldn't use the cheapest backyard mechanic to work on your nicest vehicle, you'd take it to a reputable and trustworthy mechanic and if the job requires it, a mechanic that specializes in the car you have. You want quality work. That reputable mechanic spent years honing his craft to build a reputation. Same is true with restaurants like this. The chef, if he cares about his craft, desires a good reputation. Culinary art, if done well, is a wonderful experience. Can I afford this kind of lifestyle? No, but I have eaten at a few high-end restaurants and it is absolutely a fantastic and fun experience.
One last note, Grant (the head chef and owner of Alinea) is relatively young (just about 40 years of age) and likes playful dishes. I attribute this dessert to childhood when playing in the mud and making mud pies and such. It's cool. Those that scoff, no offense, just simply don't get it or think it's frivolous. That's fine, everyone has an opinion. I just fail to see how one can have a good, solid opinion about something they haven't experienced before. Reminds me of the commercial about the guy that hasn't tasted Almond milk before but has the opinion that he doesn't like it. Well, duh.
Bobby Z In the end, it doesn't change what the dish fucking tastes like. Shit like this is a waste of time and a complete shitfest of a mess.
Just give me a fucking plate. I want to eat, not watch someone trying to paint a fucking table like a kid throwing paint around his mother's house.
+Kagami Gaming : So, you've been there to judge properly? Doubtful.
You know what they say about opinions...you've got one and I've got one. Funny though you make your opinion solely based on a TH-cam video.
I never said anyone was wrong. I just find it funny that people can have an opinion about something they know little to nothing about. How is that possible? That makes it not an opinion, but a presumption. Two different things.
And it's perfectly ok if you don't get it either. That's totally fine. :P
+Bobby Z So then how do you actually eat it?
I wish someone would have sneezed at that table and blown their artwork to smithereens.
LOL
@Swiit Lime is this for me ? I was just laughing at the comment of Cali fornia. He is just funny
When the circles turned to squares and they destroyed the frozen mousse is when I peaked
It would be cool if after all that, they mashed it all together and ended up with a normal chocolate mousse.
Looks tasty, but wtf. Can't they just do this on plates in front of each person?
well the tablecloth allows for a bigger display as well as having special properties to the table cloth (there are small indents in the cloth). You obviously don't eat this with complete strangers.
@@jonathandpg6115 It is so fucking wierd that you seriously explain this idiocy. It is bullshit for really stupid people.
lol im sorry, im alll about fancy but this is fucking hilarious...they throw all these ingredients on the table, smear the sauces (ofc creatively) and bam....heres your dessert....i'd much rather get a plated dessert than a mess like this....
it's just as much a plated desert just the plate is a lot bigger. The sauces aren't smeared I don't know what your talking about
Gabzo Avro
a table is not a plate.
but you have to admit this is not practical and is very pretentious
ando1135 It's a special mat.That's what I mean by "plated"
So yes it's like a plate. Lots of restaurants have share plates and some have it so you can order food and whoever can eat what they want (lots of asian restaurants in NA have this). This is no different just it's much larger. Not pretentious just out of the ordinary.
If ths wasn't a restaurant that served high quality food for a price it'd be a cool new thing to do but because it's quality food people try to go against it for no good reason.
3:02 she asked a guy who is clearly just a server, "Are you the head chef here?". Basically you can have all the money in the world to eat at restaurants like these, but money cant buy you a brain lol
Where do I set my drink?
lovely...looks great
Stupidest idea ever, the rich are going even more stupid than I thought was possibly possible.
Congratulations, you just spent thousands of dollars on a mess.
Amazing, let them hate. Its something that they can not do
The question is..
How do you eat it?
Covid shutting down the dine-in part of this restaurant is something I can get on board with.
Having OCD, this would not work for me.
Ima gonna come here one day. Oh lord the detail
This was stunning, so beautiful; the chocolate went from round to square!. Wow!!!. Amazing.
It is only pretentious if the presentation is made to be better than the taste, but at Alinea (a 3 michelin star restaurant) all of these elements: terrific taste, whimsical presentation, and table top performance comes together to form a dining experience. If anyone does not know how paramount of a task it is and how much perfection you have to out-perfect to get to be at that point of earning and keeping 3 michelin stars throughout years and years in the culinary world, do some fucking research before you make uneducated insults to the chefs who have given their lives to such a noble cause.
someone needs to leave the internet
Did I hit a nerve?
calm down there tex
it's not a joke..there are definitely chefs who refuse to participate in earning stars because the pursuit is crazy, uneeded, and drives chefs insane. There are some flaws, but worldwide there isn't a better standard to judge culinary excellence. They simply dont reward michelin stars to ok food, let alone 3.
*****
Marco sent them back as a publicity stunt and honestly none of his spots are anywhere near the caliber that Alinea is now. The evolution of concept and execution that began at El Bulli lives on at Alinea. I do agree with Marco that in general the Michelin inspectors may not have the intimate knowledge and experience of a chefs mind and as a result don't necessarily do justice to excellent restaurants.
i’m not that into it but just because i don’t like dessert in general. it’s sad though how people get so self-righteous about food. if people want to experience something new like food as a fun art performance/science experiment, then what's wrong with them trying it?
instead of having the same old mcdonalds every other day for a month, you can cook your own food at home and save that money and have one interesting experience like this once a month. i normally go for something cheap like mcdonalds or some asian fast food but i don’t regret those times i save up and get to try something different. just because people don't do the same things that you do doesn't mean that you're better than them. unless you’re just envious that they have more money than you to spend on stuff that you think is 'useless' (like a phone or video card or a concert ticket or basketball game or alcohol)…then that’s your own problem.
No one's against people trying new things. We're just making fun of how utterly pretentious and ridiculous this whole thing is. Food is not art. Food is food. Put it on a fucking plate.
pavel brodskiy food can be art, art is a expression
Please, for me, all the ingredients in a bowl!
okay around half way I was thinking ... when can i smudge it all together already?! 😊
As a chef I am desperately trying to understand this but alas I cannot. If what is being done here cannot be applied to a serving plate or platter then it's just the chefs ego being spilled out in front of the dinner guests, but people with vulgar disregard for cuisine and enough money to keep fuelling the chefs that provide them with these cheap thrills and displays will keep the cycle going. Sure, push the boundaries but let's keep it real folks.
Plot twist .... The table is the plate.
Same here... for me , it is the same handling you would do on a regular plate ( except the frozen shit, i would never serve that to my customers ) .. i don't understand why this is considered "wow" ... perhaps because of yuppies living in overpriced small cosmopolitan appartements and willing to go to those kind of places because of boredom. I m saddened to see this , but in other ways i m not being a snowflake disapprove this buissiness model... i would more fight for correct food labelings , than this shit which I compare to Mc Donalds. .. at least Mc Donalds you can take out. .. this is just an unfortunate stupid American trend that is food porn sharing on social media. ... as all respectable chef's that I know. You shouldn't f k up good base ingredients for your personal ego. ... sad part of chef's. ..
Nah as Gordon Ramsay myself, I think you're full of shit. As long as the "table" is clean I wouldn't mind eating from it, if I don't want to I don't come to this restaurant, simple. I bet you would think that food served on banana leaves is some hippie shit even though that's how to traditionally serve food in some parts of asia. You don't actually respect food, you only respect how you think food should be served and are too afraid of innovation.
Simon Davies Thank You!
It's the artistic consept of "painting outside of the canvas" kind of thing. I like it
It's art, man. Comparing this to a home-cooked dinner is like looking at a masterfully created Dutch oil painting and saying "yer, my iPhone takes better pictures"
incredible is the only word that comes to mind.
20 course meal?!?
aint nobody got time for dat.
