I'm not arguing with your guidelines. I'm saying RTR doesn't meet the guideline. Because it's an expensive Russian-themed comfort food joint.
>how would a fine dining restaurant serve curries without them looking of formless mush?
With some difficulty. Start with fussy plating and random food architecture. Add a stuffy sommelier offering a selection of 50 different rieslings and gewurztraminers, add a michelin judge desperate to add some token "nonwhite" places to the guide, and bam, you've got officially designated fine dining.

But when you try to shoehorn a non-european dining culture into the habits and customs of european fine dining, it's not always a clean translation.
