As a former chef's apprentice who got dissatisfied with the profession, your series of videos have rekindled a certain love for gastronomy in me that I had long lost. Thank you and please keep making videos. I would really enjoy an off-series about your own restaurant, not necessarily as a marketing point of view, but just stuff you'd like to showcase that you personally really enjoy!

Even normal or 'poor' people will spend $40,000 on a car when they could've spent $17,000. Of course you won't get to go to these restaurants constantly or even routinely, but if it is a thing you want to do, it's shitty to have to go through life thinking it's denied to you or it's "for other people." If you make $40,000 a year, is it worth it to go to these restaurants? Fuck no. But is it worth it to have your *first* experience at such a restaurant? Yes. And is there someone special in your life who deserves to come with you and can get over whatever hangups they have about eating there? If so, the yes becomes a fuck yes.

@@hymnofashes Say what you want, I come from the place where literally none of my friends ever visited Michelin star restaurants and everybody (including me) firmly believe 1000 EUR for a meal is an absurd amount of money. In 18 European Union countries this is more then a monthly minimal gross salary. What's more, citizens of only around 30 countries can afford it based on the minimal monthly salary. That puts things into perspective.

I really like the "sauce centered" idea; this is what I always tell guests at my restaurant- I, and many others, can cook a piece of beef or duck beautifully, but what I cannot do is make a luxurious sauce, and this is a main part of any good restaurant experience. Sauce-making takes an enormous amount of time, labor, and understanding. Absolutely love your channel.

Yes I noticed that too, and I must say that's my own experience in some luxury restaurants as well (and though I like to cook, I'm not a chef). Appreciating some dishes/pairings/details is very welcome and sharing the enthusiasm/appreciation can open a whole new world. Once at a Michellin star restaurant my date was very impressed by the sommeliers choice and said "The one wine I could think of to pair this is dish with, is a [wine I personally forgot be she didn't], but that's not an option because it's almost impossible to get" and the sommeliers eyes lit up, he walked away and came back with that exact bottle. "You made me very happy. This has to be my favorite wine but it's way too costly so we cannot add it to our arrangement without it becoming too expensive". He opened the bottle, poured us both a glass, shared why this wine was so beautiful to him and asked us to come sit at the bar after dinner. After all guests but us left a few members of the staff joined us and the sommelier gave us all a private wine tasting. I already paid the bill for dinner (with a generous tip as I loved the experience) and the owner told me this was on the house. It is not something I ever expect to happen again and I'll never forget it.

Yeah, that cheese cupboard would be a big temptation for me, grab "them cheeses" and devour them with a crispy baguette and flush 'em down with a couple of bottles of those fine wines, and then, take home a plate or two, to add to my collection. The desserts looked fantastic and delicious too, but, most of the other offerings, I wouldn't even have tried, because I don't like seafood. I love the old fashioned 19th century style classical French food, laden with truffles, foie gras and lots of creme and even more butter, the style of the great Paul Bocuse, which many of these new upscale restaurants don't offer anymore. This is a great show and review and the host is a real specialist in his field. I am part Hungarian( my great grand mother) and it would be interesting if he travelled around Hungary and did reviews of Hungarian restaurants and food.

Plénitude - The décor, the lighting, the atmosphere as a whole, all serve as the perfect backdrop for a feast for the senses. The service is more than impeccable, it elevates the spirit to a level not seen in any other establishment (I speak for myself) and is a great pleasure to experience at second hand. The meal itself is a fantastic journey from sauce to sauce that intrigues and excites me. That sardine with fennel and tarragon almost brought tears to my eyes. The wines, ah, the wines. I don't like drinking wine, but that's my problem. I never had any desire to learn how to appreciate wine ... until now. This meal has made me sad for my ignorance even while I enjoy your pleasure. At least I can enjoy your enjoyment. As I said, it's easy for me to enjoy at second hand. If I had the wherewithal to choose where to go for a complete gustatory experience, a treat for all my senses, I would be very happy to sit down at a table - and perhaps even a seat at the Chef's table - in the dining arena of Plénitude.

Something sort of similar happened to me once at a small restaurant with a wine pairing where, in this case the owner, gave me a glass of an expensive wine (not 1000 Euros per bottle in your case but hundred-ish per bottle), I said something along the lines of he shouldn't have, he's too nice and he's losing money on the wine pairing. He then confided that he was already going to open the bottle to share with the staff when service was done and the thought I should have a glass as well. There are a lot of passionate people working in restaurants and it is one of the reasons that going out to eat it is my favourite hobby.

Not only would I not be able to appreciate the food due to my simplistic experience with food but even if I could understand what I was eating I don't think I would walk away amazed. It's just too much presentation and high price.

Presentation is more like a requirement. The best food on earth could be served in a bad looking way and it would subconsciously ruin some of your tasting. Its not to hide an OK food (not at this level anyway) if its what you fear But your right about the taste. Taste is memory, and a newcommer could be oblivious to some subtleties. If you like food, however, make food yourself, know what good product is, and dont just eat sugar/salt insdustrial garbage, you could apreciate the experience. MAybe start with a reputable one star.

Just had dinner here… it was awesome! If you get the opportunity give it a try! Love the focus on sauces and desserts were excellent. Desserts I particularly I liked as they were balanced and complex vs. just being sugar bombs. As he said wine list is amazing!

I've not watched all of your videos by any means, but of the ones I have seen, this one seems like the best experience for what I would like to enjoy. Quirky, but not too much. Inventive and creative food, but not unrecognisable. And I'm from Northern England so gravy runs in my veins. I've heard that in great French restaurants they have at least one chef who are entirely dedicated to the sauces. I'm no chef, but I do love to cook at home and a good sauce can turn something bad into something decent, or something good into something great. I imagine a great sauce can go even further. My parents are of a generation where they'd consider a meal for two costing (for example) £400-£600 would be a "once in a lifetime" thing. But for me, I think if you really want to enjoy that experience and don't have a huge amount of income, it's something a normal person could enjoy maybe once every year or something like that. Hell, I'm spending £250 on four nights in a hotel in a couple of weeks time and I still have to eat and drink for four days at my own expense. Realistically, this long weekend will cost me £400-£500 and I do this sort of thing on (usually on a smaller scale) a few times a year, so I don't think it's that unreasonable to spend that sort of money on one really special evening. As an aside, I recently went in for a drink at a restaurant that has pretentions of Michelin stars (I think they did have one star a few years ago) and I noticed they had a job advert posted online. While their job advert demonstrated really good employee benefits, the guest reviews suggest that it is - at best - average food, poor service and extortionate pricing. While part of me feels like I might be able to raise the standard of service on the bar or potentially as a server (I am significantly more experienced as a bartender than as a server), I'm not sure I'd want to deal with the lines of dissatisfied guests without the management-level authority to deal with them or make appropriate changes to policy/working practices/menu/pricing structure to actually stop complaints.

Love the channel Alex, well presented and you do a nice job of not coming off snobby which can be quite easy with these experiences. There are a few restaurants I've added to my "will visit" to look forward to!

in 2015-2017 I was lucky enough to be in a position I could go to a Micheline starred restaurant here in London every month or every other month... I tried plenty and I was addicted. Spent a lot, but I didn't mind at the time. This video made me miss those times so much!

I tried to get a reservation for Plenitude late last year. They were fully booked five months in advance (and I only asked in 2)! Nice to see what I missed here, will try booking them again as soon as I get the chance.

Just discovered this by randomly browsing cooking videos, at my third video by now and I got tears in my eyes , i thought U can only get that from music but i guess it's emotions after all. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us some places and experiences that most likelly most of us won't ever go trough, maybe if we win the lotter we would be allowed and could aford such places. Thanks I go watch another one.
