Re: Would you enjoy this meal?

No, I wouldn't enjoy it, simply because the majority of the dishes were things that I won't eat and it's a set menu.

No. If I spent $600 on a meal I would want it to feed more than just myself. I have no desire to spend 4 hours eating one meal. With the exception of the creamsickle, I do not find the meal visually appealing

Re: Would you enjoy this meal?

It's nice she enjoyed most of the meal, but she did say she had a couple of clinker's

 

Out of 22 dishes ,that isn't a bad average

 

 

She has a more developed palate than me. I didn't see anything that looked good ,or even eatable.  I could never eat something  that was chosen for me, unless it was something I knew I would like, and wouldn't upset my stomach.

 

That menu lost me on both counts. But to each their own

Re: Would you enjoy this meal?

I would be willing to try it as an adventure.

But someone would have to show me how to eat that stuff!

I'm a meat-and-potatoes gal.

 

I"m very picky about what I eat because of my Crohn's.

I no longer eat any raw food, except for fruits & veggies.   And very little of that.

 

But I would like to at least taste everything.

I love that she was given a specially wrapped copy of the menu.  

 

 

 

I do prefer a nice bowl of pea soup or beef stew.   But I have to say that I love gourmet food.

Nope. To much fish for me and its raw. The only fish I eat is deep fried. The only thing that looked ok was dessert. I’d rather spend the money elsewhere.

I think you should do what you want with your money; having said that, the food looked gross to me, not anything I would eat...but to each his own...

Take time every day to enjoy where you are without a need to fix it

Re: Would you enjoy this meal?

It's an interesting concept, but I would want to choose the food.  There wasn't much in that meal that appealed to me.

Re: Would you enjoy this meal?

I absolutely would.  Fortunately, I live in and travel to areas where I can have a similar experience for about 1/3 of the cost...even that is an extravagance for a meal for one, but I take a great deal of pleasure in the experience!
