    Inspired by Epicure, Paris. Winged this in about an hour. Langoustine was lightly cooked in yuzu butter. Not the most appetizing looking broth but it was incredible. Epicure’s is more yellowish orange colored. Broth was made from the heads and claws, onion, lemon, thyme, orange juice and finished with yuzu butter. Probably should have garnished with more thyme flowers for more color.

    I’d love to see a little pop of color somehow but overall very appealing dish that highlights the beauty of intentional simplicity

    The amount of sauce in the second one is correct. Use that much sauce with the first plating, and skip the claw. After that you need some green.

    And if you want to bump up the colour of the broth, saffron will do the trick.

    Second one looks better, definitely could use some color. Maybe some microgreens, pancetta, or vegetables to provide textual and visual contrast.

    Face the tails the same way, don’t foam the broth, add some thyme blossoms or chive blossoms. Drizzle an herb oil or just olive oil
