    There is one important thing to point out. No boujie restaurant is gonna be disrespectful to the guy carrying a selfie stick, recording for millions of people, demonstrating what their business is all about.

    • @Frogbjb
      @Frogbjb Year ago +299

      having been to benu before, it was pretty much exactly like what he describes and shows on video. Even got to meet the chef at the end in the kitchen the same way he does. MOST (but not all) Michelin starred places pick their FOH staff well and are super chatty and personable and generally really nice, and this holds even more true at the 2-3 star level.

      @JackSchreiner Year ago +27

      Yeah if they trash on him for filming they know it'll make them look bad which is smart and should be looked at as such by every restaurant. Its free promotion lmao

    • @neat24

      @micahgreene4573but they all knew he was recording? The last restaurant said good luck on the video? If he was discreet the video would have been different lets be real. I enjoyed watching but lol

      @vondahe 11 months ago +20

      At $160, it was also affordable compared to the next two.
      $1,100 (before tips - last restaurant) for ONE person is absurd. Even with the sake.

    • @morgothbauglir4898
      @morgothbauglir4898 11 months ago +12

      @heauxx20 1 Michelin star means that Michelin (the tire company, there's some interesting history there) thinks it's a high-quality restaurant.

    • @EternalNero
      @EternalNero 6 months ago +3

      But but... On the second one you get pig skull! And... and DEAD BIRD! And who doesn't want leathery ham and being surrounded by fake people? Not to mention those little (tiny) vegetables that look just like those you tried to grow in a pot as a kid just to forget about them and...
      ...No? Okay okay I see what ya'll mean... But pig skull bacon chips though! No? Aww...

    Dude, bring an animal corpse to the table while you're eating is wild. It gave me the same vibe as that scene at the end of A Christmas Story where they say the duck is smiling at them and the waiter chops its head off and looked at them like "bon appetit"

      It wouldn’t upset me on a moral level (though I do think it’s in bad taste), but I would not want a dead bird that close to my food/being handled by the staff, you’d better hope they move with “cult-like precision” or you could be in for some terrible food poisoning/parasites.
      Sometimes I just ask myself “why?” Like are they tying to be unique or what?

    • @davidpowers9178
      @davidpowers9178 2 years ago +15

      no your dad buying you a good time when you turn 18 is an experience. what really trips me out tho is people that pay this kind of money for mid food at best while your sitting down doing nothing and calling it an experience is what tickles me.@tattooedtattletales

    • @mehyeah2931
      @mehyeah2931 2 years ago

      @davidpowers9178experience of the place comes from your company and the ambiance personally, there’s something about going to a nice food place dressed well with a person or people you want to go with. The whole act of getting ready and looking sharper than usual for food that you normally wouldn’t try is the experience. Adding a little hop into the “normal” things in life is what makes it better imo. I went to a Michelin star restaurant here in England the food was an elevated version of normal Indian street food and courses although by the end it was £250 for the night I enjoyed my company and it would be something I would want to do 4-6 times a year on special occasions. Overall, life is what YOU want it to be my friend!

    • @User000-o5y
      @User000-o5y 2 years ago +46

      ​@User000-o5y spending a thousand dollars on a restaurant for one person is insane. Im sure the food taste good but unless it gives me super powers or makes my lower region bigger its a complete rip off.

    You should’ve done it wearing a hidden camera to get a real review of the place. They could’ve been treating you better because they know you came to review the food and upload it online

    • @Frogbjb
      @Frogbjb Year ago +185

      Been to Benu in SF and it's pretty much exactly how he describes/shows it. Most of those staff are true professionals who have spent decades working in the industry. You don't need a hidden camera to be treated well at Benu, that is just what those people are hired to do. Can't speak for Blue Hill at Stone Barns though.

    • @CucWater

    I wouldn't be surprised if you got extra good service at the third restaurant because you were filming. I could be wrong, but they did invite you into the kitchen and it would obviously be a bad image if a popular youtuber filmed a bad experience. Besides that, food looked amazing!

      We are talking about a 3 star restaurant. That's a big reputation to have and if they heard any waiter do anything those ppl said in those reviews, they would be fired immediately. You don't get a 3 star because 1 food critics came and said it was great. That means you had over 100s of different critics come through and none of them found any flaws in your service, food, or decor. They even look to see if all the dice onion is cut the exact same size

      The man has private everything at any given time, it’s more likely that his utensils are worth several hundred dollars apiece. Just because he kept his old house for the publicity doesn’t mean he doesn’t have other private multimillion dollar houses he hid from the public.

Negative reviews at that place are mostly outliers, and theres a reason they've ranked multiple times in the world's 50 best restaurants.

Americans, oh dear... Do you know even, what is silent Service? Do you even understand, that you gave a Rating for that second Restaurant, even ever been in there? Stupidity all...

    In case yall didnt know, working at a michelin star restaurant is in fact working at a cult. This goes from 1 -3 stars. Also, the money isn't always good enough to justify the bullying, constant studying, stress , and cult behavior.

And by that logic, some poverty struck jealous people might leave bad reviews. Not to say that these peoples are bad, mind is a fickle things, and the world is grey, sure, but it is closer to black than white.

    This was fun. I love that you shared the bill afterwards. I've only been to one 1-star Michelin restaurant. It was amazing and about $75/person plus more for drinks. Luckily, I took my mom and she doesn't drink, lol. The food portions were small, but by the time we finished all the courses, we were both so full. I really want to try more restaurant. It's a little too expensive to be a regular hobby, but maybe once a year would be good.

    As Chinese American, I can tell the last restaurant has fantastic Chinese/Asian fusion food. But i would never spend over $1000 on half of a store bought century egg and some frog legs. The ingredients of that meal cannot cost over $100. I’m not paying $900 for the environment, wait staff and 5 minutes meet and greed with the chef. I would waste my money on some food I’m less familiar with. 😂

    I totally get the concept of the second restaurant, the idea is clearly to direct the costumer's attention to where the food they've been served comes from, which addresses the disconnect created by the high availability of processed and fast food in modern society. It's a really noble and refined concept if you think about it.
    Fuck it tho, I'd rather get a truck load of McDonald's.

    tbh cancelling last minute or showing up with a smaller party than your reservation at a michelin star restaurant grants irritation, it costs them a lot of money not having that table filled, especially since they usually do not have a lot of tables per day over their extensive x-course menus (its not fast food). that''s why in some places in europe at least they make you pay a sum of money up front per person. they did not get mad because they we're doing their job: service and you were filming, but you should not pull stuff like this (unless you give a huge tip).
