    Rohin, great article. I was wondering if you have any food & drink magazines/blog recommendations that cater at this level of fine dining?

    IMO, this is the worst Michelin rated restaurant in the world. I had a trout inspired menu where every single dish tasted like smoke or vinegar. I so advised the restaurant when I was there as most of the dishes at our table of six were sent back half-consumed. The staff did nothing other than advise me that I was wrong and that people were enjoying their meals. I polled people afterward and can assure you that they were not. This is one of those places where people want to believe the cuisine is special so they gush over preparations that just isn’t good. The only possibility is that the owner was not feeling well due to her medical treatment so she was not there. However, the restaurant offered nothing even when contacted afterward. Go to Quince or Single Thread.

    I admit that I’m shocked at the mishandling of a clearly communicated allergy.

    I’ve been to Quince and the French Laundry, and Atelier Crenn is definitely on my radar.

    I’ll also admit that I don’t enjoy observing fellow diners photographing every plate. For me, this act diminishes the ambience.

    Thank you for sharing this pieces of art and poetry. Everything show on the pictures look perfectly presented. This is what we call real fine dining. I enjoyed reading your review.

    Expertly presented review. Composition, prose, photos, sent me to the table. Years from now, no doubt some readers will believe we actually ate there and can remember the smells. Well done Rohin!

    Thank you for your review Rohin, the menu and presentation looked wonderful! It reminded me of Atelier in Ottawa (sadly now closed). Kind of shocking that your clearly advertised allergy/dietary restrictions were mishandled at best, and ignored at worst.
