  1. Beautiful plate. Well done. Is that two pieces of scallop? The piece under the top one is also scallop? The sauce is dots on one side and a puddle on the other side. But that’s a sure minor point. I’d love to eat that.

  2. I didn’t know you could eat scallops cold
    (Technically I knew you could, but I didn’t realize anybody did)

    Holy yum batman. I want to scarf this. The scallop looks so good with that beautiful sear and moist interior. Looks like a super tasty combo of flavor, colors, and textures.

    I just love this. I’m a huge fan of using the carrot tops too, they’re so under-appreciated. Can’t get over how beautiful the colors are on this too, it’s a gorgeous highlight of carrot and scallop!

    I had to scroll back up as I almost missed this post. I just wanted you tell you OP this is damn near perfect imho.

    I like everything except the plate itself. The contrast against the food is nice, but it looks like a mix of a dog bowl and a prison tray.

    Other than the plate not being my style, I would absolutely demolish this entire thing in one bite.

    Great job!

    This made me pull a dirty face, but in a *FUCK OFF THIS LOOKS GOOD* way. As always, props.

    Really great plate!! Super.
    Just curious, are not the carrot tops a little bitter, as it’s a root vegetable and the tops are exposed to the sun?
    I’m sure i nibbled on some at some point but I can’t remember.
    But than again, arugula is also bitter and plenty of people would make a gremolata out of that.
    So perhaps it was intended??
    Agree, good usage of the parts!
