TheGoldenEel 08/27/23 11:58:56 AM #1:	Theres a place near me that only serves 12 people per night. You pay $125 and get a 13-course meal thats different every night based on the freshest ingredients and what the chef is looking to make reservations are very hard to get but I happened to be looking yesterday and they had two seats available in October never been, very excited to try it! https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/1/7/AAW8UqAAEyeV.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/1/8/AAW8UqAAEyeW.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/1/9/AAW8UqAAEyeX.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/2/0/AAW8UqAAEyeY.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/2/1/AAW8UqAAEyeZ.jpg --- BLACK LIVES MATTER Games: http://backloggery.com/wrldindstries302 \\ Music: http://www.last.fm/user/DrMorberg/ <cite>TheGoldenEel posted [p:975692778] in Have you e...

LeoRavus 08/27/23 12:24:33 PM #7:	Never been to one but saw videos on it. Seems a little gimmicky, but I guess a good hustle rather than working in a chaotic restaurant kitchen.

knightmarexx 08/27/23 12:28:56 PM #10:	I ate at a Japanese Kaiseki restaurant in Tokyo, and it was amazing. I think we reserved pretty close, since Kaiseki restaurants are popular but not block booked, unlike here in the west. The restaurant itself was situated with many hashi over the steams, and we literally had a massive room to ourselves (me and a friend) -- except when the servers came in to serve the food. Best thing about the whole thing? No need to worry about a tip. <cite>knightmarexx posted [p:975693305] in Have you e...

ClayGuida 08/27/23 12:33:23 PM #11:	Once, but it was like I think like 90 for 2 people, and was at an Italian resto and had like 7 or 8 courses. We had a shared salad, shared pizza, shared charcuterie board, shared lasagna, shared a half chicken, and 5 different deserts, and something else I'm forgetting, possibly a steak or something. Overall it was among the best meals I've ever had. I know I'm a big eater, and was like, oh they're still bringing shit over. The chef comes and asks what kind of foods you like, if you like savory or sweet, and so on, then sends it out based on that. Coolest thing for me was the crepe lasagna that basically melted. It was light and fluffy, but tasted amazing. --- lolAmerica <cite>ClayGuida posted [p:975693375] in Have you e...

TheGoldenEel 08/27/23 2:13:21 PM #13:	Dreepapult posted... Bit too fancy for me Maybe if someone else paid for it lol The nice thing about this place is its super casual. Just in a normal storefront between a barbershop and an antique store, no dress code, and they have this on their FAQ which is funny to me: We play unfiltered 90's hip hop and rap music to lighten the mood in the dining room. If this music is offensive to guests, they can quietly ask their servers and we will gladly change it to a wonderful Disney favorites mix. GeminiDeus posted... Agreed. What the hell is that last picture even supposed to be? It's mostly made of wires! Its a smores brownie served on a little wire tree. Why? Why not?

IronTusk 08/27/23 3:15:07 PM #19:	Yes, several times a year for birthdays and wedding anniversary. Just did omakase last week. Last year did an incredible farm to table prix fixe in Scotland.
