I really enjoyed this. I was a commercial photographer for 30 years and did a number of food shoots. It was always fun to watch the stylist work their magic. Now as an avid amateur cook, I try to think about plating when presenting food.
I completely agree having been on loads of food shoots too, a good stylist makes all the difference. It’s definitely harder than it looks. You should check out the podcast on my channel as there are loads to plating advice from top chefs that could be helpful to you. Really pleased you enjoyed the video and thanks for taking the time to comment 👍
Not a photographer anymore, but will definitely follow your channel (subscribed) for my own cooking. One of my too many expensive hobbies. ('cause let's face it, if you want to create topnotch dishes, you need to start w/ topnotch ingredients.@@diningfables
Watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲 this video is top tier 😊my first time on your platform,it was literally awesome 👍 best wishes to all chefs from around the world 🌎
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and so pleased you found value in the video. If you are interested in more content about plating beautiful dishes, I've worked with some amazing chefs on real-time demo's on how they plate: ruclips.net/video/kXFeYpgdEUA/видео.html & ruclips.net/video/MxxdeBkiLNg/видео.html. I'd love to know what you think and if these are useful too. Cheers
Thanks for the really kind comment and taking the time to watch the video. Would love to know if you find any more of the videos helpful too! Happy plating 🙌
Would be interesting to see more of the practical plating design process starting from a recipe or set of ingredients. It's quite general so I would struggle a bit translating that to an implementation. Maybe exploring ways of debugging or fixing existing presentations could be interesting too.
Cheers Mario, really appreciate the feedback. I’m actually in the middle of planning a series of videos with U.K. chefs to talk about their techniques/ approach to plating. I’ll then try to film them doing an example. So stay tuned 😀
just thought I'd let you know I've just uploaded my first chef plating vid: ruclips.net/video/kXFeYpgdEUA/видео.html Hope this is more what you were after 👍
I just found your channel and immediatly subscribed! I was exactly looking for these kind of videos, thank you so much for posting! Looking forward to learning a lot from your channel:)
Thanks so much for your comment. It makes it all worthwhile to know that the videos are helpful to people. Let me know if there is anything you’d like me to cover in a future video as I’m always on the look out for ideas 🙌
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and I'm really pleased you enjoyed the video. This was one of my first videos talking to camera so I was super nervous and just wanted to get it finished 😬. I've done a few more since then so I've tried really hard to slow my delivery down. If you watch my latest video (ruclips.net/video/1hHl9074SIQ/видео.html) I'd be really interested to know if you find me easier to understand. Thanks again 👍
Great video, thanks for making it. You've got a new subscriber. I think I need to take some time and put some love into cooking some high grade meals for me and the wife. We've dined out at many places while traveling, Michelin Star included, and nothing really blows my mind in terms of flavors and complexity. Most of which I think if I took the time to experiment, I can probably replicate to some approximation of it. But I do want my wife to appreciate fine dining more, maybe learning plating takes time, but seems worth it. It adds about 10-20% to the love of food from just the right look. So far there were 2 desserts that I've tasted at 2 separate 1 * Michelin restaurants which stayed on my mind. 1) A restaurant in Milan had a great Panna Cotta dessert, which I've not had a chance to find anything similar elsewhere 2) A recent restaurant in Kyoto had a light fried fig cut in half, but the texture and taste was spot on Looking forward to videos about comparison / contrasts of plating styles from various parts of the world. I've seen some really interesting stuff.
I couldn’t agree more, we definitely eat with our eyes. The visual side of food is really important, especially in the world of fine dining. Love the idea about comparing plate design in different cuisines or countries, I’ll have a look into it. Thanks again for taking the time to comment. 👍
Im working on getting my first michelin star by 2025. Im not fornally trained but when it comes to cooking, im a bit of a savant, and can recreate recipes by visuals and tastes. Ive worked in low end roadhouses up to places like Garden of the Gods. Everything i tasted, my tongue disseminated and figured out. So i want to be one of the few star owners who arent formally trained at places like CIA (culinary institute of America)

Who did studies to determine this stuff, like where to place the food 7:40
I think, like most creative things, it has evolved over time through trial and error 👍
