If any restaurant owner / chef is here, I have an idea to serve food. Off the floor. Hear me out. There's no need for tables and chairs, people will be sitting on the floor, maybe on a cushion. It's cozy and homey. Then you take the food and throw it on the floor and people will eat it using their hands (the 5 sec rule obviously doesn't apply - you can take your sweet time). So no need for plates and cutlery, which means no need for dishwashing!! For liquids, you just make your hands like a cup and the waiter serves your beverage there. Awesome and progressive, right? Right??

I did think the fish and chips on a sheet of paper would work, though. After all, that is a traditional way to serve them (wrapped, though), and the paper gets thrown away or perhaps tossed on a fire afterwards, so this is hygienic and allows for a normal-sized meal.

It's totally ok to be creative, and if the guests of these place like the trash looks of these plates I'm fine. But are all of these things hygienic and not toxic? There is a reason if some things are not usually used as plates or pots, some materials are not suitable to contain food.

Oh my God! What a bunch of tossers! I bet they charge ridiculous amounts of money for their disgusting messes!

With so many people photographing their food you have to do something to get your place free publicity.

At the risk of sounding like a philistine, I really don't see the point in food served this way. It's artsy-fartsy yes but so impractical. Unless these things are merely meant to be seen and not eaten.

I always wonder how the dishwashers feel about this stuff.

These remind me of that scene in Grandma's Boy where they go to the vegan restaurant.

I would hope that most of these say on the menu that the food will arrive like this. if not, I'd send most of these back or even leave. Mind you, I'm sure I couldn't possibly afford to eat at any restaurant that's this "hip" anyway. LOL

So this is what the Hipster Chef comedy sketches were based on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGct826b5dc

By the end, the comments were along the lines of, "It's not so bad." I think our brains were taken hostage by the first few pictures.

There used to be a chrome-and-auto themed bar around here with a non-sequitur idea for getting and paying your tabs: There was a four-inch wide stream of water just inside the bar rail that gently flowed by you as you sat. You could launch those little plastic, rectangular dishes you get your bill in and send your payment off to the bartender like a little boat. I loved it. I'm a little weird, though... I like flowing water so much that when I was a kid I used to watch the water that ran off driveways as they were cleaned form streams like microcosmic rivers. Besides minor mishaps, I'm not sure WHAT was wrong with this (the flow prevented algae, for instance), but I'm sure something was.

This is basically and advertisement of "Our food really sucks, so we have to get you in using gimmicks that may distract you long enough to not realize that we're charging you way too much for this slop."

Remember when when restaurants just nailed junk to the wall? Bet Millennials are sorry they killed Fridays and Applebees now. lol

What is wrong with a good old fashion plate? A plate is perfect; it is tried and tested. Don't fix what ain't broke!

I'm sure those all taste crap. What lacks in taste usually also fails in presentation.

I'm quite sure the majority of those are not food grade, meaning it's not safe to put food on them or eat off them... who is supervising these establishments because I'm sure using serveware that isn't food grade is a no-no.

If anywhere served me food on anything but a plate, I'd walk out. NASTY

So many of these are so terribly unhygienic that the trend MUST be conspicuous waste: objects like concrete blocks, logs, etc., that can't possibly be used more than once without visibly being contaminated. So keep in mind when you see the wealthiest areas of America (or... what's up Barcelona?) vote 99% Democrat (Lower Manhattan, San Francisco, D.C., Loop Chicago, even downtown Houston) how hypocritical these elites are. These places don't cater to some conservative minority; they're the trendy locales of the dominant culture. PLEASE DON'T MISUNDERSTAND ME: Ad hominem is a fallacy! Their hypocrisy doesn't mean conservation isn't needed. It just means we shouldn't follow the elites in how to be conservationists! LIVE SIMPLY. Simply means cheaply.

Another perk: the floor comes pre-seasoned with whatever the previous folks had.

My main concern with this pretentious presentations is the hygiene. Pretty sure that certain objects are not as easily washable as normal dishes.

I believe in most cases, they are ALL single-use. Our urban elites pay indulgences to their phony environmentalist gods, but live like disgusting, planet-killing slobs.
