Can There Be Anything New For Dinner?
I was searching for something to post about today. I know, I do it every day. Today I was looking for newest dinner crazes. I didn’t find too much, just a lot of diet stuff.
One thing I did find was the concept of eating in complete darkness. This was at a restaurant but I think it would be too weird for me but the concept behind it was quite interesting.
The whole concept is that you don’t get to see the food. You have to rely on other senses to experience the food. The smells and the textures are the 2 most important senses involved. How many times have you heard kids say “I’m not eating that” just by the looks of it.
Of course, there are obstacles to eating in the dark. You’d have to have everything already in bite sized pieces before serving. You shouldn’t trust anyone with a knife in the dark.
Although I might like to try this at home, I definately would not go to a restaurant that’s completely dark. There really isn’t much left new to do with food, you have to come up with interesting ways to serve it.
