Internet buzzes over $400 smoked apple dish from Michelin-starred eatery

A video featuring a $400 smoked apple dish from a Michelin-starred restaurant has taken the internet by storm, captivating viewers with its stunning presentation and meticulous attention to detail.

The clip starts with a chef placing a sleek black dome over a white plate before revealing layers of delicately arranged apple slices.

A flower-like decoration, possibly crafted from apple skin, and a scattering of small berries add to the dish’s visual artistry.

For the finale, a clear dome is placed over the plate, and a liquid is poured in to create a misty, smoke-filled effect.

The dramatic sequence ends with the apple surrounded by swirling vapour, a hallmark of high-end fine dining designed to engage multiple senses.

The video has drawn both admiration and debate online, with some praising the creativity and craftsmanship, while others questioned the $400 price tag for a single apple-based dish.
