  1. Nice looking dish. I would lose the dill cos it’s not edible like that. A few micro greens on the scallops would do the trick.

  2. Maybe change the herb garnish or add another, you already have the dill in the risotto; lemon verbena? A contrasting color might be nice too?

  3. Im a chef/owner of an Eastern European restaurant and dill is basically our parsley for garnishing. I agree that they need to be small and try to find dill with smaller fronds, ones that look like little branches. Those are beautiful once shocked in some ice water. These in the photo unfortunately resemble pubic hair and would better to be minced (and slightly dried if you like) for garnish. The rest of great!

    Looks great and a stunning sear on the scallops! I would recommend a little more red or pink color on the plate. Also try to keep your garnish off your scallops, don’t wanna cover up that gorgeous sear.

    Excellent work!

  5. Appreciate all the input. Trying to start a private chef/catering service. Been offering limited private dinner events but now I’m going all in with this idea. Appreciate all the kind words and constructive criticism and can’t wait to show you guys some more dishes I come up with.

    Looks yummy. I’d do just one sprig of dill. And a little more spacing between the scallops. I wouldn’t have any pine nuts on top of the scallops. Scallops look best by themselves or a light aioli leaf drip. Nuts take away the luxuriousness of scallops

  7. Add RED or PURPLE. Use a plate that will fully control the risotto shape.

    Very nice dish

    With me, pea and dill don’t sit well and not enough to compliment one another. Beautiful color and great way to execute this plate. If I were to make this work, I would add some fried prosciutto with some fried shallots on top. Maybe add fried sage or just some classic parsley leaves on top for garnish. Really great color though

  9. Gorgeous don’t change a thing except maybe chopping down the dill garnish a touch smaller, or using younger fronds.

    Save the oil after browning fresh chorizo. It’s a brilliant red orange and chorizo and scallops get along.

    Use an oval plate,create 3 circular rings of risotto and top scallops on each rings.garnish with spring mico greens.finish dish with a pea reduction and chili oil.
    Your scallops are poorly seared.👎

    Well that’s plated nicely for adults but for kids they like gross stuff so I try for a bum and poops or vomit or something along those lines.
