MOLECULAR GASTRONOMY

August 28th, 2008

In the process of covering this Archeworks charity dinner party for i4design magazine, I was exposed to the talents of Chef Homaro Cantu at Moto Restaurant in Chicago.

Edible Menu. Crrazzy. The waitstaff had informed me that it tastes like a flaky country

biscuit with a nutty flavor due to the brown butter component.

The syringe is filled with biscotti. The cake is coffee. Chef has really done a reverse job

on the coffee course. . . plus a syringe with instructions from the waitstaff to suckle on it.

I’d show you pictures of the suckling but that would make Chef Homaro Cantu an evil genius.

Many thanks to Archeworks, i4design magazine, Moto and Chef Homaro Cantu!

(And Alicia, Richie, and Matt for the superb menu descriptions.)
