What better way to stand out in the competitive industry of the restaurant business than to go nuts with a Michelin-esque presentation. Is that a single meringue served on a levitating pillow? Did we get charged an extra $10 because they served our butter on a posh-looking rock?

The world of wannabe fine-dining restaurants, of course, is not a new phenomenon. Throughout the years, we've written about it enough times to know that we shouldn't be expected to get this instead of a pea soup like we've ordered. And so, in honor of this peculiar trend, Bored Panda has curated a collection of the most outrageous fine-dining experiences out there.

For those of you wondering what those foods are, OP says: Something, Pea Soup, scallop n bread, 1/7th of a cauliflower, some sort of meat, a light (I believe) lemon dessert, and a special chocolate cake dessert for our anniversary. It was incredible.

Jeju Noodle Bar, NYC - 1 Star

Squid and Nuts - beautiful presentation, relatively simple prep with a fantastic pesto-like sauce underneath. A squirt of lime to bring out the acidity. Toro Ssam Bap - caviar on top of toro on top of rice. We opted for the uni supplement $25, which took it to the absolute next level. A+.  Lamb Ja Jang Myun - a classic rich and hearty Korean noodle dish with lamb in lieu of traditional pork. Beautiful presentation and is so rich, akin to a ragu. Deep flavors.  Family Ramyun - showpiece dish, unbelievable broth. An absolute steal at $23. Added the bansuk egg.
