When food, art and pleasure are indistinguishable ...

When food, art and pleasure are indistinguishable from each other, you are elevated to a dining experience that's beyond reality. Alinea deserves every single one of those 3 Michelin stars. It's an experience, a celebration of culinary excellence and creativity. 14 courses, each with a theme of their own spread across 3 hours replete with presentations and a trip to the kitchen.

There's different tiers of dining. $530 per person for the Chef's table including gratuity, taxes and service charge. Your meal includes cocktails but wine pairings are extra. You could go for the Regular, Reserved, or the Alinea experience (~$350). The wine server walks you through the story of the wine and explains the process at the vineyard which makes it special as they pour it in your glass.

In case you are wondering just how fancy can it get, the cider you are served comes from Normandy, France and is made by combining juice from 40 different types of apples. Flavors in every dish were like nothing I've ever tasted before. With every course, the aroma in the space and the music changes. All your senses come alive and indulge. An unforgettable dining experience !
