Agreed. There are a lot of false "fine dining" restaurants about. They are all flash, no substance. The good ones are absolutely amazing.

The portions are often small, because you don't NEED any more. They are an intense bit of artwork with flavours, textures and smells. The visual side acts to support that.

Interestingly, the prices often aren't actually that bad. If you go at the right time, and limit yourself to the set menu, it's only a little above a normal, decent, restaurant. While there are some that go the whole hog with fanfare and celebrities, they also charge an arm and a leg. There are also some chiefs who specialise in playing with your senses. These are more akin to a theatre trip, than a normal meal. Outside of those however are a number quietly providing an exceptional dining experience for a fairly reasonable price.
