      It's a next level for sure. You definitely need to be adventurous and open minded because some of the courses can be challenging. Be prepared to spend around $800 to $1,000 or more with wine pairing for 2 people (and reservations for 2 can be challenging to get) depending on whether you are at The Kitchen Table, Gallery or The Salon. Still it's definitely a once in a lifetime event worth going to.

      another comment said it was $390 per person, if that's true, it's a complete and total rip off. $20 worth of food prepared in the smallest portions you can imagine while they put sauce on the plate like it's an art project, and you pay nearly $400 for the privilege of being ripped off. Then you have to tip on top of that and they'll consider 15% to be a cheapskate if you go to these type of restaurants. They can only exist because of vanity.

Fine dining means you get almost no portions and it's all artsy with stuff spread on the plate to look fancy. I'd rather go to a steak house and get real portions, a man will get "totally stuffed" in a Steak House, A man just looses what's left of his appetite when he gets the bill and realizes how much he was charged for so little food at most fancy restaurants.
