Welcome to a little slice of culinary heaven where we share photos of our favorite dishes, from savory succulent sausages to delicious and delectable desserts. Made it yourself? We'd love to hear your recipe!

Rules:

1. BE KIND

Food should bring people together, not tear them apart. Think of the human on the other side of the screen, and don't troll, harass, engage in bigotry, or otherwise make others uncomfortable with your words.

2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see [email protected]

It's deliberately plated so you can see all of the good stuff you're about to eat.

Well that's silly. I don't want to have to reassemble my sandwich.

oh dont be a baby about it; just put the top bun back on.

Part of fine dining is the experience. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but it's supposed to show that we put effort into not only making good food but that it looks nice as well.

This is supposed to be fine dining?

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001 1 points 2 weeks ago

It's more in between fine dining and casual dining. We care more about aesthetics than most places.

I just disagree with the premise that it cannot look good without also being neat/assembled.

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm not saying that. I'm just stating that this particular dish was deliberately plated that way to show off all the ingredients in a visually pleasing way. It's the only dish we serve that way.

Yeah I know haha sorry, just ribbing ya a lil bit. But that tomato looks threatening to me

It looks like it's spiling out because there's two of them lol but I get it looks a little funky in the picture.
