I could not help it. I saw this ridiculous story in the NYTimes, and had to link to it. If your food item is too small to handle (as in HAND), and you're using tweezers, that is simply dumb. Stupid. I'm paying to eat good, flavorful food, not "art" on my plate. Others can disagree as they choose. I'm sharing a quote below to illustrate...well, read for yourself:“It’s harder to make it look like you didn’t try,” said the chef David Chang, whose kitchen crew at Momofuku Ko tweezes extensively. “It’s more difficult to make it seem it’s plated as it falls. That’s what we call it, ‘as it falls.’ It’s not rustic. It’s naturalistic. It sounds stupid, but you’re using tweezers to make it seem natural.”
Stupid is as stupid sounds.
