I went to the Fat Duck a couple of years ago with 5 other people, the table had been booked long in advance. The building is crooked and cool, with low ceilings. The food was as much art and sensory experience as it was tasty. Some of the dishes I still recall fondly, years later, and the GREEN kale-y snail porridge (which was unedible for erm one of us but the other 5 did eat) I still laugh about.The timing and pairings were wonderful, though we did find (keep in mind, my table mates were Scotsmen...) they were a little cheap with the wine. Less than a glass per dish for sure, which would be reasonable after the first few dishes, of course, since there were like 16 dishes, but it would have been nice to have something to nip at while waiting for the next dish during the first couple of courses. We were first offered champagne, which was awesome, and we said yes please, but keep in mind this is at an EXTRA charge. Some of the dishes were mind-bogglingly beautiful, others super original, and of course some were a bit like "but why" (you made me listen to ocean sounds for 20 minutes because...Im supposed to get a sense of the ocean, I guess? Okay). Clearly some of the dishes were more experience than taste, which is cool but weird. Also sometimes we were like "are we supposed to eat this..?" because there was a lot of weird stuff and sometimes non-food looked like food and vice versa (we had a plate holder that looked like a beach or something, which we stared at for five minutes before the waiter brought us a single mushroom and an octopus eye or whatever, you feel me). So yes, the food was amazing, and the amount of work and styling possibly reflects the pricing, but unfortunately the memory that stuck with me was the snooty waiter's reaction (and btw oh my god that French cheesegirl was condescending to everyone) when I had the gall to ask for salt and pepper JUST FOR THE BREAD, I wasn't even going to "edit" their dishes, for fox sake, I just enjoy salt-n-peppering the delish butter on my starter bread :( She looked at me like I was a slimy, kale-covered snail and finally said "... I'll see if we maybe have some in the kitchen..." gurl I know yall have salt and pepper in this establishment! Get ready for an amazing, artful, extremely long-winded meal, and turn your nose up and to prepare for the wait staff to think you are all lowly scrubs. :)
