Now that el Bulli has shuttered its doors, those looking to recreate the experience should head over to José Andrés’s Penn Quarter restaurant. Each weekday evening chef Ruben García dazzles diners with dishes like linguine made with feta cheese water and gelatin, sweet pea “caviar,” conch fritters with a liquid center and a warm foie gras soup with cold foie gras foam. Close proximity to the chefs allows you to watch them prepare this interesting and tasty food right in front of your eyes with a sleight of hand usually reserved for Las Vegas magicians. Not only is it “the ultimate in dining as theater,” the experience inspired one reviewer to proclaim, “All dining should be this much fun!” Editor’s note: The same exhilarating experience can be found in Las Vegas at é by josé andrés, located in the Cosmopolitan Hotel. |
