This is so profoundly pretentious it transcends stupidity into being flat-out asinine.

My good waiter, I’ll have a tiny dollop of nondescript goop next to a single drop of some kind of sauce, please.

It seems like a lot of people don’t really understand this kind of dining. You go to these places to try a bunch of different things, not to eat a lot of one thing. Many courses are one bite, or just a few bites, but you get a bunch of courses, even 10+. Based on the guy’s reaction, this is likely the first or one of the first courses, though I’d bet he was satisfied at the end. These things are meant to be interesting, but a lot of this fancy stuff you’d probably get tired of after more than a couple bites.
I will say though, I can understand being a little disappointed with how much of that goop (looks cheesy?) the waiter had vs how much ended up on the plate, though that is pretty much the only way they could’ve served this while keeping it table-side.
Quick edit because I’m anticipating the replies: going to these restaurants is like going to the museum. You do not come here for a filling meal (though you’ll be at least a little full after all the courses), you come here to see and taste the art. They specifically make things that would be impractical to make at regular restaurants, a lot of time and hard work goes into these from the prep to the cooking to the plating, you’re paying for all of that. A lot of these things have a table-side element for this purpose, it’s them trying to add another layer to the experience for you. Ultimately, if you don’t think this sounds fun, *don’t pay for it*. Nobody is making you go there, and these restaurants are not trying to be the new norm or anything. Nobody is taking away your steakhouses.

I always assume the owners of these type of ‘upmyownass’ places are just laughing at the shit they can get rich people to pay for.

You can truly catch the exact moment his heart breaks.
And how much do you pay for that?
Why the fucking massive plate?
I think that dessert needs [more dipping areas](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IbvbF0L9tJg).
