The Bizarre 50 Course, 7 Hour Long, $1000 Meal at Alchemist
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 2. 06. 2024
- Alchemist in Copenhagen has 2 Michelin stars, is #20 on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list and is one of the craziest meals I've ever had. It's 50 courses, 7 hours long, and costs nearly $1000 per person, but is it worth it?

honestly $1k doesn't seem that crazy for a 7hr experience lol
Yeah I thought this would be far more tbh.
Yea. Seems reasonable enough with the amount of prep, manpower, and creativity to push out 50 dishes times the number of people like clockwork. Still, 7 hours is fucking long and this looks mentally exhausting from the lighting change to the processing of what the fuck just arrived.
they only fed them foods rich in nutrients and minerals that promote blood production , then tried to talk them into donating
@@thunderborn3231 are you agreeing or disagreeing?
@@alpha_9997 wild concept on the internet i know, but that statement is neutral
This feels like a plot for a horror movie, where you eat the entire menu then the last meal is the customer before you.
Edit: There's been tons of replies suggesting me to watch it. No, I won't watch it. I don't care if it has flying ponies or gives enlightenment.
Edit 2: Even with the edit there's still tons of people commenting it's not a horror film so I can watch it. Still don't care. I don't want to watch it.
Literally the movie "The Menu"
@@LemonyLemonOfficial Sorry, haven't watched the movie and probably never will. Too scared to watch horror films or anything scary.
That was brilliantly stated!
And Iâm still reeling from that movie âthe menu!â
@@SaiHikawa its a thriller not a horror btw, and as someone who is also frightened to bits by any media horror related i would definitely give this a watch
@@SaiHikawa it isn't a horror film
Imagine if the first meal is actually a poison and bits of the antidote was distributed throughout the rest of 49 meals
Ooh that sounds really cool. Could have been part of the menu
Lmao

Upon entry, your group is asked to stand in a waiting room. Strange you think, the room is made entirely from metal. Some time goes by, you start to feel dizzy. The doors open, you and your friends stumble out into the dining room, where the host explains that the room you have all been waiting in is highly radioactive and that you have received a lethal dose of radiation poisoning.
The host proceeds to inform you and the group that they have everything you and your friends need to survive, Potassium iodide,
Prussian blue and Diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid. The only thing you need to do to get these counteractives to radiation poisoning, is sit through their 50 course meal where they have hidden the treatment in the ingredients used to make the food.
The meals start off normal... unassuming. Slowly, the dishes begin to become increasingly intricate and challenging to your values. At the end of the 49th course, the host explains that everyone has gotten half of the dosage required to leave unharmed. The other half resides within the 50th dish. 4 Chefs wheel out a large metal tray on wheels. They each hold a corner of the lid, lifting it to reveal a whole cooked human, stuffed with an apple in their mouth like a pig.
Opportunities for plot inclusions:
1. You are there with a Vegan friend who weeps as they force themself to eat a live octopus.
2. One of your friends dies during course, because they were forced to eat something they were allergic to. Your friend ends up being the final dish.
Enjoy
Thatâs actually genius
A recurring theme Iâve noticed about all these rich avant-garde experiences is that they try to make commentary or statements with their cuisines/fashion items/art etc., but every conclusion they draw is the most surface level, hamfisted take that a middle schooler rushing to finish an essay 2 hours before itâs due would come up with.
Accurate. The only people impressed by this are lower/middle class folks. I donât need a contrived liberal agenda with my meal thanks.
Exactly just dumb really
Duuuuuuude, itâs called 1984 and get thisâŠ.. itâs an EYEBALL. Art.
Of course ! Itâs a business after all. The art statements are simply a way to make the consumers feel entertained and âinformedâ .
It's just a bit of fun. If I could afford it I'd love to go
This Restaurant definitely has "The Menu" vibe to it
Yessđ
Exactly
Yep death at the end unless you want a real cheeseburger!
Omg yes
more like the menu has an alchemist vibe, its almost like the menu is styled after fine dining experiences.
Feels like âThe Menuâ. Like, really feels like it. From the cursed music to weird food, to orderly staff.
Better to not pissoff the head chef then
the menu is based on these, so yeah it should
Yessssss
Yes!!
It's sad they care about certain things like blood and environment, yet serving dead bodies and carcass
This isn't just food. This is a contemporary sensory art experience. I started off thinking "how pretentious", but I grew to really appreciate the effort, concept, artistry, originality, boundary pushing, humour, daring, quirkiness, inventiveness and fun.
All synonyms for pretentious
@@duquem0421definitely not, most of us wonât ever be able to afford it in our lifetimes and for a hungry man, it might not even be worth it. But it doesnât appeal to hungry men and it doesnât try to cover what it is. It is something elitist yes but if you have money to spend, it might not be wasted here
I love how perfectly the movie The Menu kinda critiques this kind of decadent out there food. Like, I can see them pretending to be so environmentally conchious and critical of the establishment but from the way this thing is most likely run and priced at, it IS the establishment cosplaying as rebels. It's what happened to the simpsons when they became what they critisized so heavily before. It kinda feels like a joke. Only rich people can play with their food in these decadent ways. so if they actually dared to be self aware, the last course would be nothing but a plate called something like: World hunger or something like it. Or even better, have the entire menu be nothing for the experience as you ask guests to come hungry and let em eat clay to feel full like starving ppl do in desperate situations. that'd at least be a worthy critique of the establishment especially tied to food.
I agree; it feels like the criticisms they are trying to make are hollow when they are guilty of the same decadence and wastefulness. I would also have a hard time eating meat while viewing all that unpleasant imagery around me. I'm a pescatarian and often feel bad at times for eating seafood, so I can't imagine enjoying chicken meat or the like with visuals of caged animals and birds hanging from their necks. It's almost like they are shoving the point they are trying to make in your face. It's not subtle, it's not deep, it's blatant and hypocritical.
The only type of crazy expensive rich person restaurant I would ever agree with. Its brimming with creativity, and its most definetly more than a meal. Its an experience to remember forever, on top of quality product. Its not some lazy added gold leaf and random expensive ingredients to hike up the price, its actual work and care, and definetly love. Especially if the resaurant changes the experience e v e r y season. Crazy.
The food and some of the presentation are surely sensational. If only they would let go of permanently reminding you how bad the world outside is and what you should do to make it better.
â@@einundsiebenziger5488 I don't know- surely you'd want a 1000 dollar audiosensory day trip to make you think?
If it was a feel-good escape you wanted, you could just spend a whole day at a high-end soul food place and schmoose around for a fraction of the price.
@@JK-zd3md I would spend this much for a multiple-course meal, and I also enjoy the stories around the food and some entertainment. But I want to consider it a given that the restaurant serves responsibly sourced food and doesn't create plastic waste, and not be surrounded by a fake chicken concentration camp while eating my chicken.
â@@einundsiebenziger5488 so that you can ignore the real life "concentration camps" for chickens?
â@@einundsiebenziger5488 living in your ignorance is the bliss that's gonna doom everyone else
for 7 hours, 50 insane courses that produces a once in a lifetime event, 1k I think is a fair price - seen and heard of dishes that are several hundred dollars a pop but certainly wouldnt leave an impression like this would. I can totally see why this sells out in 3 seconds or whatever it is.
For 1000 learning about world issues you can save a family from poverty and help them start a business
I agree.....ppl are getn a bargain!!
I'd even spend the 1000 âŹ/$/ÂŁ for a fifth of the courses and half the duration of the event, if they just would not bother you with their non-stop attempt to deliver this "the world is bad, but let's make you a better person" message. The latter I can have for free at any given PETA membership rally.
â@@eveali3177 Ew. Go do that yourself.
Real genorous with other people's money.
@@eveali3177 bro stfu
Theres an extreme irony with most of the dishes being about unethical food practices, while also serving foie gras, one of the most controversial foods out there.
Yeah I find that too ironic too
its ethical foie gras sourced from spain
â@@Protogenoidhow can it be ethical? They have to be forced fed to obesity to make it.
@@jessicahay9305 dude itâs so easy to look something up, but since you are so lazy I will copy and paste it for you âethical foie gras production which leverage modern technology to replicate the smoothness of fattened livers.â
@@jessicahay9305that was the 90âs and a ton of places outlaw the sale of force fed goose liver. They use duck more often now and they donât force feed them anymore. They give them access to as much food as they want and the animal decides when to eat and not eat. Google is really easy to use and usually more accurate than your redneck parents who told you about force fed geese.
Bro this guy is the dude from the menu that "knows" everything but cant cook. Holy shit. Thanks for posting and confirming to me rich people with pay lots of money to be shamed and youll take it with a smile
As someone whoâs maybe not in the best place mentally right now I canât tell if this would be kind of freeing and fun or just a literal nightmare that would send me spiralling.
Itâs cool, itâs an experience but itâs also tinged with a lot of horror and guilt
Hope u feel better â€
Kinds had the same feeling while watching this.
Also in a similar mind frame where things can be really great, let feel like the world crashing down
Iâd say youâre one of the most together commenters at this freak scene. Peace and God bless Lisa
this is so dumb. for 1000$ you might as well stay home and watch PETA videos on acid while eating chicken nuggets and you'll have the same experience for 20$ haha
It's just some virtue signalling sheltered westerners. You can simply disregard their opinion as naive and laugh.
I don't see myself paying 1000 dollars for an existential crises at each dish lol. And the whole idea of them making you "free" a chicken leg to then eat it while they're also serving fois gras is hilarious
Yeah like what in the hypocrisy?
I think the hypocrisy is an intentional element
@Legs The Snivy eh the chicken and fois gras were different courses so I think it was just hypocritical
Yeah it's almost like Satan is celebrating the calamity of the Earth....đ
@@LegsTheSnivy they source a sustainable and ethical foie gras from Spain actually where the geese run free and live a good healthy lifestyle
It's so cringe that a high-cost restaurant, which sources ingredients through all sorts of transportation, packaging, refrigeration and CO2 emission, is preaching about caged animals and plastic pollution. I mean look at all the plastic used in the interior decoration.
its typical leftist yuppie elitism, they dont want people who cant afford not to but the rich morons who produce 200 times more carbon than a normal person is the one that shouldnt have to cut back and eat ze bugs like the peasants.
Yes, used in the interior decoration not out on the street
Most if not all people use so much plastic in their daily lives, whatâs stopping this restaurant (or any other restaurant) from doing the same? At least theyâre actually bringing something to the conversation using food as a medium, really creative on their part
This restaurant:
-Makes comment about microplastic in the ocean.
-Literally have one of the last dessert be wrapped in "biodegradable" plastic, which is exactly the kind of microplastic you'll find in the ocean.
There's a lot of irony here, which I understand and appreciate. But the fact that this is directed more toward rich people that can afford this food makes me wonder if these strong points are actually going to sink into them and let them think about the world outside of the restaurant. Also, if these people aren't super unsettled by the experience, then I doubt they got the point of it.
They dont gaf
I get your point. wouldn't it be good to try and make rich people, by shocking them in this way so that they, might become more aware of the realities that happen outside of their world. because in the end they are the ones who have the most power to bring big changes or to fund people who can make big changes.
Exactly
@@charles826 maybe we should just eat them
Youd have to be extremely stubborn or asleep to not perceive the experience as intended in its bare minimum. Its pretty visual heavy. You get what they mean when they show you an eyeball.
Dang thank you for making this. I donât know if Iâll ever be able to experience a Michelin starred restaurant but I feel like you really let me into one here. This is so good
Thanks so much! Honestly one of the biggest compliments I could get :) Glad you enjoyed!
there are some reasonably priced restaurants with michelin stars.
1star Michelin is not expensive at all. Noma and Alchemist are on another level
I mean if you joined the army or the navy you can definitely eat there
There are a handful of michelin starred restaurants that cost $30-50 USD per meal.
What makes restaurants like these amazing is how they abuse all senses. You may eat with your eyes first then mouth second, but what about feeling or hearing the food? It can trick the mind. What makes the Alchemist truly special after watching this is not only does they respect the animal and use all the parts, but it respects the people and the community. Itâs not trying to be flashy rich, its trying to be flashy as in enjoyable.
I'm just imagining a customer here wearing a đ© and a monocle, sipping on a cup of tea with the pinky extended saying "oh hoho, how novel, microplastics! Yes I do vaguely remember this being an issue, I do hope the poor folks this affects manage to resolve the situation."
Lol micro plastics affect everyone, fortunately or unfortunately
Rich people aren't going to a place this tacky. Real rich people don't even buy luxery clothes brands because they're reminded of the desperation of the unwealthy.
@@miaomiaou_ Yeah but if you're a billionaire you can pay to like... siphon your tainted blood out and replace it with the blood of baby orphans or something.
@@rahhmennoodles338 Rich people have banquets behind closed doors, laughing at the fact stuff like this exists and reviling their ownership of the land, this clown show is renting out.
Usually itâs money that solves issues
This for me is the best video ever made about Alchemist. You really took me to the restaurant with you. Now Iâm gonna go watch The Menu movie for the extended version đ
I did culinair school and we went on a trip to chef's experience.
Here we got to see and meet chefs all around the world who explained their restaurant and their foods.
One of them was the chef of Alchemist. It was truly fascinating how he explained everything. He said his next project would be to dine on the moon in the future.
So you know how Meow Wolf is a really bizarre art collective that makes interactive, surreal art installations that everyone loves because there is an actual soul to it?
THIS PLACE HAS NO SOUL. Why did I hate watch this video? đđđđ
Also my favourite restaurant without competition. Regular guest since the first Alchemist opened in Ă rhusgade. Now I have had the pleasure more than I have fingers - and soon toes as well đ - because Rasmus Munk make so many changes to the experiences every season. Iâm so glad you had the chance to experience Alchemist as well, Michael. đđŒđ„
How do you manage to get a ticket so often?! đ - please tell me the secret!!!
Can you take me with next time bro
I got 7 dollars and a gum wrapper, could I give you that and you bring me with you next time?
oh so you're the guy the chef literally hates in "the menu"
Bring me a box of leftovers to reheat. Ask for a Sprite too. Glass bottle - Made in Mexico preferably.
This is the kind of restaurant I would have never thought existed!
there are a few, but i wish we had more! and definitely not too many in the US
@@ligier which ones are in the u.s
iâm well aware of the criticisms that could be made here, but as a lifelong enjoyer of freaky modern art in all its forms, this captivates me. i adore the idea of an art experience this interactive and unapologetically weird
Wow... I'm not wealthy by any means, but this is going on my bucket list. It's hard to say why but I feel like experiencing this will really add some 'life' to my life. Fancy food is cool and all but above all else I want this to be one of my memories.
1000 ain't a lot save up for it
This place will be closed and the business venture done and done, before you get there in life.
@@joefer5360 True, I can't seem to make it and I'll be dead soon anyways. The rich can have their rich hobbies to themselves I suppose.
As an experience sounds interesting, but as a restaurant, it's a pass for me. There's a fine line between groundbreaking restaurant and theme park exhibition. Also I would prefer not to be served a guilt trip with the meal I just spent my life's savings on. If I was going to go out for the dinner of a lifetime, I'd want the food to speak for itself, and not be come out talking about how awful humans are. Theatrics are cool, but shouldn't be the main takeaway of the restaurant.
thatâs fair! personally i think at that price food alone is never going to be worth it so i appreciate the experience around it but there are plenty of restaurants that have amazing food at lower price points :)
Agreed
If $1000 is your life savings, you should not be dining at a restaurant like this
I actually love the environmental message they're trying to tell. Not that I'd eat there
@@dandanthedandan7558 They're not trying to tell anything. It's just that environmental propaganda is fashionable.
I like the idea of going to a restaurant and having the chef chose the meal for me. This way I know this is the finest they will produce that day.
No thanks. I donât need to be guilted while eating chicken or lectured about blood banks, forced to dance in such an awkward situation, not to mention being trapped in there for seven hours!! đđź
Yeah it sounds like a pretentious nightmare to me and I donât want to be stuck inside somewhere that long!
This looks more like an art project rather than fine dining
As a chef by profession, this so absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing.
right?
As it turns out, the outlandish restaurant in The Menu is tame compared to reality. Also 3:32 1984 was not about data privacy - when written in 1949, there were no internet, no personal computers, no data.
yes, but the themes in 1984 are ultra relevant to data privacy - the point of books is to thematically tell us about society that we can apply to our current lives
â@@Mike-zx1kx You're a very unpleasant person
Did you read it tho
Correct. It's unfortunate that it has become a sort of instruction manual for governments around the world, but what's worse are the people who go along with it.
I mean, just because there werenât computers doesnât mean there wasnât data; it was just in a different format, and yes, in less quantities. But still there!
What a lot of people in the comments arenât really understanding is that this restaurant is more so catered to extremely wealthy clientele. The people that come to places like this and can afford 4 figure meal prices arenât aware of issues like this and almost take it as a joke of some sorts. This restaurant is a great juxtaposition of throwing it right back in their faces and still giving them what they want.
$1000 yes would be alot for one meal but for the amount you get here its actually pretty affordable, a phone or pair of shoes could cost the same.
Why exactly would they not be already aware of those issues? Also, 1k is a lot, but nowhere near "rich" territory. Some broke people spend more on a bag.
There are quite some misconception surrounding wealth... wealthy people are aware of social issues, they just never have to experience the negative impacts first hand, making it impossible for them to empathise. A demonstration like this can only cast two effects; either these people walk out feeling so reinvented and woke that they start to look at price tags or talk about a greater purpose - or they shrug and say, well that was weird. To me this restaurant crossed a certain line. I am a huge fan of culinary arts; I do not think fine dining and hospitality is pretentious at all but this is dystopian. It is a large scale agony simulator for the fortunate, which imo is absolutely brutal.
Rich people do read the news đ€Ł
This isn't luxury. This is pretentious, over-extended on credit cards, upper middle class garbage. This nonsense makes them out of touch with the rich they aspire to be and the poor that they stick their nose up to.
Course is about to end. You are happy and full and the host comes up and say "I hope you liked the food, now more music from our violinist"
*rains of castamere starts to play*
Honestly, surprisingly affordable, when looking at it from the perspective of a holiday abroad. Once I have some decent savings it might be something I have to try, really seems like an extraordinarily unique experience.
Hello friends! I love sharing really incredible food with y'all and if you love learning about the most amazing food in the world, definitely drop a like, subscribe, and let me know where I should visit next â€
HĂžst (Harvest) in Copenhagen also have different many course+surprises menuÂŽs with accompanying wine. Easier to get a seat and prices vary after selections but to reach 1000 you need to go bonkers on the wine. Much less will still give a really good and unique experience. Alchemist are on my list but I have not been able to get a reservation for my open slots. I am trying the cancellations list once in a while until I succeed. But also have to be with someone so a lot to coordinate for a slim chance. I have been to NOMA several times and I do not know if you have tried it but this year are last chance. at least for their permanent restaurant. If you have not you def. should. 3 season menus left whereof 1 are veggie so time to act are now. Since it have been published they will close seats will not be easy to get. They will create a food lab based on the one they have now to see if they can invent great food and flavors"for the masses" or maybe just their restaurants, we will see. Maybe they will make some pop up events to test their labÂŽs creations on "real people". Time will show what Rene Redzepi do, but I am sure it will be worthwhile.
I love this kind of dinner theater, eating at the Francescana at the Maria Luigia was one of the highlights of my time in italy, the stories (and ingedients) behind the dishes being presented as well as the journey of the chef, at least chef Bottura, gives you a good appreciation of the menu.
came into this with an open mind and was pleasantly surprised to see how much I enjoyed this and your take on the place. 10/10
This is like if a 19 year old art school kid ran a restaurant. They think theyre deep and jackson pollack is a genius.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing. Love seeing restaurants push concepts and ideas
Wow the Menu was right.
What a waste of food.
This seems like an amazing experience, more like an edible art exhibit than a restaurant. Deffo on my bucket list.
I've never seen such a fancy and expensive resteraunt that actually seems very appealing! This is WORTH it! So much creativity, their chefs truly are artists!
7:58 - Never would I eva thunK that Barry White's music would not only be a part of a fine dining experience. To top it off, dancing is included! Wow! And u got rhythm đȘđŸAnd your summation at 8:07 is to the point!
My sister worked as the door lady here, very cool job, though very stressful enviroment
Having visions of wealthy people eating the dishes in a panic, trying to convince others that they're able to "feel" and convey some kind of empathy at these themes.
Could not agree more with you. You paid for the experience and WOW, what an experience you got. All the visual stimulus had to have had an effect on the taste, what an artistâŠ
I donât even care for fine dining but I would 100000% spend the money to do this. Itâs now on my bucket list
The menu combined with the specimen jars suspended behind is getting me rn
Great video, thanks for sharing your experience đ
The level of pretension is off the charts.
For a thousand dollars? This seems pretty worth it for the memories and stories alone. If it wasn't half the world away, I might actually try to book reservations for my partner and I.
Oof, okay there Elon Musk. It's one thing to have $1k to blow on a restaurant, it's another thing to actually tell people you have $1k to blow on a restaurant.
Well, if you'd consider the restaurant for 1k, why not consider the plain ticket? Vacation aimed at one of a kind dining experience, while enriching your cultural scope of reality? Denmark is a great country to visit!
I live about 4 km from Alchemist (2Âœmiles)
@@CyberGeekzGaming Honestly it's because of that 1k price tag. That's an entire vacation in of itself. The trip, room and board, and everything included would likely triple the cost of the whole trip, which is a bummer, but hey, keeps me saving!
@@ijustdocomments6777 It's not 100k, it's 1k. It'd be like saying 'Going on vacation is blowing your money'. I bust my ass to save money to get away from the grind once in awhile.
this is one of those experience where it transcends beyond what fine dining is and merge into fine performance art. from this perspective this is a 7 hours long food performance art with $1000 admission fee.
$1000 for 7 hours and 50 courses is still expensive, really not sure how other people think it isn't. It's a once in a lifetime type of thing for a reason.
i laughed my ass off after i heard foi gras. thats one of the most inhumane food products in the world. And right after the caged animal stuff.
Yes. Totally agree.. If they are that concerned about the environment they should try and do all this with fake meat (to a high standard), at the very least lay off the foi grasâŠ.
that's gotta be intentional no way it isnt
this is actually so lovely. a combination of art and food is not what i expected.
the way this video is made, makes it so interesting to watch! keep it up!
This was awesome! Thank you for your work and I can't wait to eat there if I ever get the chance :-)
I feel like price justifies itself for a 7 hour immersive experience and, presumably, all of the materials being ethically obtained to the best of the restaurant's ability.
I think "The Menu" definitely changed my view on fancy restaurants just like shows like "The Boys" changed my view on commercials with popular people in them.
I hope everything was good tasting
Wow! I would love to experience something like this but Iâm a vegetarian. Iâd pay a thousand dollars to look at some cool edible art, eat none of it then go out a spend more money on a takeaway đ
Had the same thought! Cool they talk about social problems like plastic, and re-using meat, donating blood, but still they serve meat and fois gras especially? Hmm...
That is probably as pretentious as you can get with dining. Cringe worthy. 300 = best sushi experience, 200 get some Hanwoo beef, and still got 500 left for wagyu shabu shabu and whatever else.
All I can think of is the movie The Menu. Oof.
that's the right association
Is The Menu bad? I dont understand
@@SuWoopSparrow No no, The Menu is great, I love that movie. However, this whole experience seems to be the height of what The Menu was commenting on.
@@SuWoopSparrow It's a good movie, but it's literally "This but a horror film", so... this.
@@gallavanting2041 the menu isn't a horror movie
Nice video! Been there and it was an amazing experience. In his first restaurant in Ă rhusgade the food was even crazier!
The food looks good but I couldn't spend 7 hours pretending I cared about whatever message the food is supposed to show
Kinda weird to not care about child labour or climate change but okay lol
So inspiring! Definitely putting on my bucket list!
This feels like a restaurant Dr Lecter would own, great video.
this is the kind of experience i hope to be able to experience one day. definitely adding this to my bucket list
This restaurant is so amazing, it truly is inspiring. It as if food has clashed with the surrealism of Salvador DalĂ. Each dish becoming food for thought as well as your stomach. It's mind bending, and I hope that one day I can experience it for myself.
I can't handle overwhelming stuffs too well. So, I think I'm not yet ready for 'ALCHEMIST'.
But it's a wonderful experience to watch it on screen. Thank you for the video đđ„°
So fine dining made by an activist with more than a few screws loose? EXCELLENT!
Get the Pepto.
about the blood shortage meal: it would be cool if they donated blood during their time at the restaurant they would get a discount
*Pays âŹ1000* *gets guilt-tripped into being stabbed with a needle*
I saw Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom when it first opened in theaters way back in the day. The one line that always sticks out, and I use quite often to this day is "Chilled monkey Brains."
I half expected them to bring some out as a course at this spot. Maybe its on their Fall Menu?
Idk if it's legal to sell monkey for consumption
This restaurant feels like it'd fit perfectly in a Black Mirror episode lol, I love it. Definitely want to give it a try some day.
What an incredible experience. I would definitely spend 1k on appreciating the chefsâ skill and creativity in a culinary experience.
Ahh i went there when i was 17, it was fcking crazy, especially because it never felt like i was full, even after eating 37 courses
Bro is gaslighting himself to thinking it was worth the price đ
I love how all the replies to this video are so different and diverded. Just shows how good Alchemist are bringing the emotions and different thoughts out of people.
Food for thoughtless people. Paying so much preemptively deludes you into being impressed
Thereâs something so distasteful about rich people making a novelty of child labor in the developing world with exorbitantly priced food. Irony truly is dead.
The fk u talking about lmao
Now I wanna see the kitchen and the making of EVERYTHING
This would be such an amazing experience, seems more like art than good but the best food is art. Thank you for sharing this experience
This video was so great I had to subscribe you immediately made a fan out of me
You're showing huge potential Mike. Keep Growing !! â€
Reminds me of a movie where Keanu Reeves takes these people to a restaurant where you eat venison while you listen to its cries of terror while being killed to make your meal.
This suddenly got into my recommended and I donât regret a single second of watching this.
When a restaurant got an entire Testing Door you know it's going to be cool.
Proof that cuisine still has thousands of years ahead of it
They really gonna have environmental and moral messages ingrained in the experience then serve you something full of foie gras (fatty goose liver which requires geese to be kept solitary and force fed for their entire lives)
Seeing you eat each dish in only one bite is so crazy to me, I can never imagine doing that đ ESPECIALLY FOR $1000!!!
It includes 70 dishes and not all of them have one bite portions
But these small portions are specially made to be eaten in one go, so that all the flavors can interact at the same time.
Tbf itâs like only 20 bucks a dish which isnât that bad considering the effort made in the presentation. Or like 143 a hour. Itâs not as bad as it could be
Pretentious and extraneous.
This is actually really cool! Hopefully it's still around when I'm older and I get the chance to go there
I love it. A culinary contemporary art adventure complete with global knowledge.
This is Heston blumenthal level of bizarre....i love it
We(the other chefs in denmark) are all pretty sure they snort a mixure of crack, drywall dust, pop rocks and bath salt in the alchemist kitchen. I kinda have an ambition to work there once, and thats only half joking
I didn't even read the title I saw the thumbnail and clicked đđ.. Now I'm subbing because I like the content đ
The kinda place where you wonder what isn't edible. Like, I wouldn't be surprised if a client tried chewing his plate or something.
it looks psychologically confronting. Not just your sense of taste is being engaged here ..with video and these visuals and interacting this dining experience is using all your senses. It reminds me of a Art gallery where the food is the art its interactive art
Just what I like.. Being lectured while I eat. Bonus points if you can put me off of my meal with some gnarly looking food presentations. $1000 well spent!
I guess you might be a bit too sensitive for this.
