April 29 was a good friend's birthday. She wanted to try this Van Gogh theme dinner for long and I happen to be a serious Van Gogh fan, so we happily booked here for her birthday dinner. ^^Allow me spending one para talking about the art! These paintings are amazingly copied - using Fujifilm 3D printing technology to copy exactly the original painting of Van Gogh from the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam. Limited production of 260 copies and each is priced at HK$260k. - I personally doubt if people
Allow me spending one para talking about the art! These paintings are amazingly copied - using Fujifilm 3D printing technology to copy exactly the original painting of Van Gogh from the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam. Limited production of 260 copies and each is priced at HK$260k. - I personally doubt if people would buy these at such price. As technology evolves, to cost of 3D print would be drastically reduced and there should not be differences between copies from originals and copies from copies... except the stamps / certificates.
Ok, now about the food! Of course the menu is inspired by all these fabulous paintings. From appetiser to dessert, you can see a suite of creative dishes with familiar art piece names. We ordered two 4-course dinner sets
Appetiser 1: Sunflowers. Beef tartar with bright yellow coloured Japanese ginger on top which is beautifully displayed just like a sunflower. In the middle, there were a layer of delicious mix of sunflower seeds, pistachio and mashed pumpkin. A Very creative combination. The choice of Japanese material not only matches taste of different food materials but also reminds us that Van Gogh also was inspired from Japanese art styles and techniques in good number of his works. We experienced more Japanese influenced dishes later at the dinner

Main dish 1: charcoal drawings. Slow cooked Veal with a seaweed film coat, mizuna salad, mashed eggplant sauce, and smoked tea soup presented a mind blowing layout / display of the dish - as shown in the photo which I found myself out of words to better describe

Last but most prettily prepared is the dessert! I was so impressed that I can still recall its look, aroma, and taste fully after almost a month! "Almond blossom & wheatfield under thunderclouds" it is!!!
Almond, Yuzi, Sakura and yogurt together made this breathtaking art piece in a plate!
