Eat Out: Restaurant Design and Food Experiences
Any gourmet worth their salt will be quick to admit that dining isn’t just about what you eat, it’s about where you eat it. And how. Alongside innovations from modernist chefs such as Heston Blumenthal (bacon and egg ice cream, anyone?) and El Bulli’s Ferran Adrià (the man responsible for injecting foam into the world of haute cuisine), high-concept restaurant design has evolved to delight, surprise, and titillate today’s intrepid diners. New from Gestalten, Eat Out celebrates the best work in the field, from the seemingly melting chocolate ceiling of Wonderwall’s Godiva café in Tokyo to Black Sheep’s interactive designs for London’s Inamo restaurant, where menus are projected in full-color onto place settings.
