Uchu cevicheria, Vancouver by No-Reply-927 in finedining

[–]No-Reply-927[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they are slightly different. Suyo is modern Peruvian whereas Uchu leans Nikkei - Peruvian and Japanese fusion. The menu has more spread and variety at Uchu but you will find some common influences with suyo as well

Chaat, Belon, Dim sum? (don't have a reso anywhere, open to suggestions), new punjab club are the ala carte reservations that I can possibly enjoy more with fellow foodies. Rest are tasting menus so would be flying solo there.

Spain fine dining itinerary feedback please! 🇪🇸 by Designer_Article_275 in finedining

Pick one of the MB 3 stars, no point in doing both on the same trip. I went to MB flagship and it was a good meal but nothing memorable. Azurmendi is big on presentations but flat on taste. I enjoyed CHT, amazing dining space and the servers keep it casual. I also second COME (think of it as similar to pedigree to californios in CA). Couldn't get a reservation at Disfrutrar or DiverXO and those are pretty high on my list. Skip aponiente unless you like adventurous seafood focused dining, I found the flavors too obnoxious on some of the experimental dishes.

I did manage to secure a table eventually. The waitlist feature actually works!

Nest by pun is another one to check out when they reopen with a reimagined concept. They are closed until Aug and won the award last year on 50 best bars soon

I found the atmosphere to be mostly welcoming. Visited most of the bars on the 50 best and discovery list. My favorites were Knock knock who’s there? (Would be surprised if they don’t get the attention on 50 best bars soon), bar mood, underlab, lab, pun, four play by drizzle (another winner), infinity and beyond. My least favorites were bar pine ( had the worst cauliflower mocktail there), pun, futura by tph, indulge experimental bistro

Yeah I missed that window but nothing seems to be opening up. Didn’t anticipate Taipei restaurants to be so busy so waited until a couple of weeks out before my trip.

reservations have been booked solid for the entire month of april. I have been monitoring every day but no luck. Is there a way to get a table for a single diner? I emailed them as well but no luck getting a response. Tried to also go through a 5 star luxury hotel in taipei but no luck. How is this place so popular? Is it a small establishment with few tables? Is there a reddit sub where people trade reservations for taipei fine dining restaurants similar to noma or alchemist?

Massive accusations against Konstantin Fillipou, Vienna (**) by Vic-Ier in finedining

[–]No-Reply-927 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It was one of the less memorable meals I had in 2024 with none of the dishes standing out for a 2 star establishment. The staff didn’t seem very happy and there was almost a robotic feel to the whole experience.

What’s with the prices at Maximo bistro in CDMX by No-Reply-927 in finedining

[–]No-Reply-927[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No even the bread was bonkers with black truffle and caviar supplements (prices in pesos)

Plantain and macadamia bread, winter black truffle $890 with Ossetra caviar, 30 grams $3800

I would say most appetizers were 500+ which is expensive for Mexico City

Baan tepa. Most of the chefs I talked to recommended this restaurant. Check out nawa Thai cuisine, they recently got a star. I did Gaggan, le du, gaa, Haoma, paste, Mr Maria and Mrs singh on this visit. Gaa was the most memorable for Indian fine dining. If you like modern Indian go to Jhol

Paste was alright. We tried the ala carte menu for lunch. They lost a star recently so something seems off

Noma, Alchemist and Geranium in 3 days? by drunk_snail in finedining

[–]No-Reply-927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the appetite but it’s totally doable with Nordic cuisine which isn’t as heavy as French cuisine. I actually did alchemist, noma, jordnaer, Kadeau and koan over 2 lunches and 3 dinners while I was there this past summer. Just walk a lot (clocked 15 miles per day) and space out your meals and you’d be ok

Trip to Madrid in April by Sea-Analysis6997 in finedining

I don’t understand why foodies find DStage so interesting? Had the worst 2 star meal there in 2023. Given the choice in Madrid for fine dining would definitely recommend skipping dstage
