  • One table, 10 chairs, and 20 courses, in a secret location. This is UltraViolet. The master chef behind it is Paul Pairet. It's located in Shanghai, China. It takes the World's 50 Best Restaurants list by storm, and Time magazine calls it one of the world’s greatest places. In 2017, it gets 3 Michelin stars.

      It seems that the lights and theatrics are the main course. I guess I have to dine there to see if it's worth it. I've been to places with too much video glitz and it was distracting unfortunately

    I went for my birthday last year and it was the best food-based experience I have had by a long way. In terms of getting to know your servers/discuss wine etc we had an opportunity after the meal. They have a small bar in the entranceway that you're welcome to stay in and drink for free for as long as you like. We stayed with the two servers (actually one of them was also your server in the video) and chatted about all kinds of stuff for another hour and a bit after the meal.

    I think that unfortunately Pairet doesn't get enough credit for this creativity and how many other "successful"/similar/copy-cat places have copied or at least taken very strong "inspiration" from his concepts without even crediting or mentioning him...or even denying it when it was quite obvious!

But interestingly, the restaurant serves the recreation of the first class dinner that was served on the final night on the voyage aboard the Titanic. It gives the viewers a glimpse of what was opulent dining a century ago. Hope we get to see it.
