No thank you...




Is this something you would put in your mouth?  To me it looks like something expelled from some an creature.  If not immediately obvious, these are razor clams with seaweed from the exalted el Bulli, possibly the world's finest restaurant up the coast from Barcelona.  Certainly, Ferran Adria is one of the world's greatest chefs, but this dish is something that would challenge me, even if I had waited 2 years on the waiting list and traveled across the ocean to this mecca on coastal Spain.  Maybe it's the soft, slimy texture I can anticipate, maybe it's the color, I just know that while this 'avante-garde' dish may be art, it won't be my dinner.
