What’s in the chimi? Not sure I fuck with it being so smooth and uniformly green
Giving me a lemon that I can’t actually squeeze is also rude
The plate itself isn’t really working for me either. Too much empty space at the margins, too white, or both

The dish itself looks unappealing. Very muddled looking. The components themselves do not sound great either. It’s not even about the frog legs, because I know they can be delicious. That’s not a chimichurri, that’s a puree. A proper chimi would look nice drizzled over the froggy and be nice looking and cohesive. Not sure the point of the Chantilly, but a cheesy polenta or grits may serve the protein better. A slice of grilled lemon serves no purpose. Give us a full grilled half, or leave it out.

Sloppy presentation. Seems piled up in the center without thought.

The chantilly cream is such an odd choice here. That just sounds awful with the other components. As others mentioned the Chimichurri should not be pureed like that. Just chop the herbs and mix with olive oil.
Otherwise, the fried frog’s legs, chimichurri and the grilled lemon, if it was squeezable, would look and sound good to me, plated simply like that. Maybe serve it with a bit of some kind of pickled vegetables like Giardiniera instead of the Cool Whip.

Is the lemon meant to be eaten? If not it shouldn’t be on the plate
