    Foam as the centerpiece with the smallest piece of venison. This is absolute chaos. The venison looks like it’s cooked nicely but the rest of the plate needs serious refinement.

  2. La mousse blanche est peu appétissante, et la présentation un peu brouillonne de la sauce serait plus acceptable s’il y avait davantage de nourriture pour l’équilibrer. En l’état, on dirait que vous essayez de mettre en valeur les sauces plutôt que la viande et les légumes, et il n’y a même pas assez de nourriture pour les accompagner.

  3. Honestly it just feels really messy. That’s maybe two bites of venison that looks good but I have no idea how to eat this, I don’t know what the powder is doing, there’s so much sauce, the greens I think are meant to be garnish but maybe are a side, the foam feels purposeless, and the red gel/oil/sauce just looks like someone with a bloody nose sneezed on the plate. 

    I think the elements look great together from a color composition standpoint, but I would cut down a LOT on how many of each element you have with that little chunk of protein, tighten up the plate, and think about how you want someone to eat the food. 

  4. That’s a micro-venis. Portion size is criminal here, plate can be as nice as anything but the diner should be at the forefront.

  5. Honestly,

    This is over plated, from a chef perspective you really could tidy this up and refine it, but I love the concept. Good work.

    For an example, your two pureesdon’t need to be shooting across the plate like that, could do a couple tidy dollops, aswell as what looks like your jus, thay sauce couple be in a nice puddle beliw the centrepiece meat. 

    But how you have done everything on the plate, it kind of reminds me of some far away gas cloud with shooting stars in a galaxy

    I feel like there’s too much. Kiss. Keep it simple stupid. I look for intentional things, we are on the right path but… too many touches and too much purée to protein and I would say a lack of texture.
    Cabbage wrapped venison
    Cabbage circle
    Beets diced
    Beet purée
    Beet powder
    White mystery purée
    Mystery white foam
    Dark Demi like sauce
    Green oil
    Red sorrel
    I would do one white and one beet purée, lose the sus foam, herb oil, sorrel…. Add some texture. Stay in line with the beet. If the white purée is parsnip or celery root I would pull from that. If you roll the loin tighter with film you can get a sick round shape, looks loose. Sous vide is a waste with something that cooks quickly like venison.

    That sauce seems like it had trouble coming out of the bottle, the foam looks like someone hawked some fat tooahs on it as a garnish, it’s dinner sized plate for a single bite of venison, nothing is centered, it’s not high or tight. It looks like someone’s plate after they finished and it’s sitting in the dish pit 🤷‍♂️

  8. Messy and portion size is a joke. The spit in the middle of the plate takes it to the next level.

    I think this would look 1000% better if the plate was essentially rimmed with the dusting

    Very cool for 2009. Your purees and swooshes need A LOT of work, and the foam is very unnecessary.

  11. This entire thread is an example of what I despise on this subreddit: People who can’t tell the difference between their own taste and something being conceptually flawed

    What a load of bollocks the criticism is lol

    This is a Jackson Pollock? Wtf is going on here… the foam reminds me of a salivating dog.

  13. Too much going on with the plate. Not to mention someone hawked a wad of spit in the middle of it.
