The Art of the Tasting Menu: How Chefs Tell Stories Through Food

A tasting menu is more than a series of small plates. It is a deliberate way for chefs to communicate ideas, values, and techniques across an entire meal. Toast Tab defines a tasting menu as a multi-course offering designed to highlight a chef’s vision and creativity.

They sort of make an experience out of getting these trees. Behind the actual bit where they are selling their trees that have been freshly cut, they do have their growing trees ready for people to take pictures in, which we hadn’t explored until this year!
