Looks interesting. Saw a 75 membership fee, I wonder how much the meals are usually?
Zwiefel,
Edited my post to correct my membership fee error and add some things. I did a quick look online and some people loved it and others not so much. Biggest complaint was because they sell out so quickly. Those people felt that after paying a 175 fee (which is the DC cost) they should have more than 3-4 minutes to decide. I would have to agree, they are overselling the memberships. I am still tempted, however.
I would have to imagine that the food quality varies quite a bit depending on the chef. The location quality could be interesting too. One of the articles mentioned plastic utensils which is not cool at a 75 PP dinner. I still love the idea.
Went to a non member one during Taste Talks Brooklyn this past December. Setting was decent - an abandoned Pfizer Plant. Food was mediocre and most courses that were supposed to be hot were cold by the time they arrived at table. The table setting came w/ a report card and you graded each course and could leave comments for chef to read. Think it cost $85 a person for 4-5 courses, booze was free flowing though. Overall was a decent experience, but food was nothing special.
