In my home town there was a candy maker that made "stone candy" that looked exactly like polished rocks. We used to buy a handful, then head over to a mineralist shop, put the stones in the bins of similar rocks and wait for other customers. When someone would wander up to the bin, we would come by, pick up a "stone" and pop it in our mouths. It was funny until some kid broke a tooth emulating us. Whoops.

not all of these look appetizing, but i love his skills and creativity !
The chef is creative and talented. Imagine a ridiculously looking food that tastes incredibly good! Perfect Juxtaposition!
If I lived in the vicinity of this chef I would save up until I had devoured every last morsel of every one of these wondrous creations. Once a month I would treat myself to a once in a lifetime event.
That's impressive! The issue is that in some there is too much gel and unnatural stuffs that help create the illusion, and I don't want to eat that. But still very impressive and some give ideas of possible presentation
What part of “first with the eye” did this person not understand? Not appetizing.
