The greatest dining experience of my life! The experience is almost not to be believed. It was the most creative food I've ever eaten but it was presented almost like a performance while Chef Grant Achatz was playing a game with us. From the Oestra caviar and yogurt in a white chocolate ball to the wood ice cream, from the flaming salt bowl (later used to cook another dish that had acorn chips) to the dry ice smoke, from the 18 hours of pressure cooking squash for its jus to a field trip to the kitchen to see the man himself, each course was mindblowingly creative and beyond delicious. This includes Grade A5 Japanese Wagu and a taffy helium balloon. Better than Keller, Roubouchon, and sushi at Kasu Kabe in SF.
