To all the morons shouting "pretentious", "scam" and other hateful, ignorant statements, it's obvious that you have no idea what cooking and food is about. Does that mean a New York city hot dog isn't considered good food? No. But this guy is reimagining food and changing the conventional way we think about eat. Sight, taste smell, etc, all come into play when you eat. Some of your best memories are centered around food, and a lot of how good you remember something "tasted", you remember more about the people and experiences around you than even the flavors. Not only does his food taste incredible, he plays, he discovers, he experiments, and does things you lot would never even think of while standing in line for something you're just used to eating, filled with salt and sugar, told is good by someone else, shovel in your mouth, and a million other ways of dulling your dining experience. The reason he's voted best in the world are for some of these reasons. I would gladly pay hundreds for his food because at the end of the day, he is giving you something you will probably experience once in your life and is the reason (even in a pretentious, ego driven word as the culinary one can be) that chefs are called artists. But go on then, keep dribbling about how you are a better, more genuine critic of "real" food while this guy keeps collecting awards, respect, recognition and $$ while you post mean comments on YouTube and feel proud knowing you know how to cook a steak.
