Last night my sister took us to Pierre Reboul in Aix-en-Provence. We chose the Amateur taste testing menu. The experience was incredibly inspiring and felt to me like participatory art. The food was sculptural and visually enticing, and the flavors were to die for. I even fell in love with the silverware, which was soft and curvy, and the designs of the presentation plates. Truly a feast for the senses.
Love the humor!
