Dinning Heaven
I find that I am unable resist good food. And I get spoiled when I’ve had TOO much good food. Ok, this is the sign of a real foodie (not that anyone would argue).
My meal at L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon is probably THE most decadent and delicious meal (and expensive of course) meal I EVER had. I was fortunate that my friend so kindly offered to treat me to a birthday dinner. Otherwise I would not have the money to walk in there for a few years.

This review really tells you what was included in the discovery menu and the author does a better job than I could ever hope to. My post is basically to rave about how much I enjoyed this experience. It’s much like when I had REALLY good sushi/sashimi at Sasabune. Once you’ve been there… you can’t quite go back. I don’t regret it. At least that means I will work hard at improving my own cooking skills (which are lacking as of this moment)
However, I really wish I had gone to L’Atelier earlier, because as I do more research on the restaurant, I think I have positively fallen in love with the previous Executive Chef, Mr. Yosuke Suga. The last thing I could find on him is that he’s now currently the Executive Chef of the Taipei branch of L’Atelier. No matter, I will visit the Taipei branch one day and fawn over him then.
Another thing that impressed me is that they gave me a special treat – an extra dessert plate – for my birthday! the service definitely has to do with how much you love a restaurant. And I think a lot of times people pay the money not only for good food but also for the service.

Extra Special
That said, there are still many more wonderful restaurants that I have yet to visit in New York. But I’m making my way there!
