That fleeting, daydreaming of growing your own vegetables sounded like a cry from your soul Will. I knew it was like this, I didn’t know about the oyster pastry and the tiny twigs etc, but I knew about the cost or burden carried by the people who create these works of art. An important piece to reflect upon.
And, believe it nor not, I've not once had to write anything about that magical summer I spent working at a cement factory. Non stop thrills this life of mine. 😉
Can't really argue with you there. And some fine dining restaurants get plenty more expensive than that. But it was a very special experience. Though I don't think it's a kind of cooking I'd do again in the future.
I’m exhausted just reading it! If I ever get a chance to dine at a Michelin restaurant I’ll probably be more enchanted by the staff than the food thanks to this article. Thank you for the peek behind the curtain.
Thanks so much, Deb. It really is an amazing experience being a part of making that kind of food. I'm not sure if I'd do it again though. Thanks for reading!!

So interesting, Wil. What a varied life you're living!

I bet it would make solid material. 🥁
Good grief . The 12 hour prep on the Tuesday for Wednesday what about the prep for Thursday or is the 12 hours for the rest of the week 🤭
Yeah mate just getting us ahead for the week basically
What’s the average length of time a chef tends to work in a Michelin starred restaurant . It can’t be sustainable endlessly ????
I had no idea it could be so much delicate work. I'm curious about what a dinner like that would cost?
Very delicate work. And very many hours a week to do it. And if memory serves, this menu would set you back about 2000SEK/$200.
And I dread to ask the price of wine . BTW how is the apple shape achieved 🍏
A mould
That's...kind of crazy. 😏

I did enjoy reading about the process. So meticulous! Like creating art.
Thank you. This is what was special about the experience. That kind of cooking really is a visual art.
This was so interesting Wil, I'm exhausted just reading.
Really makes me smile to read that from you, Julia, thanks. I really enjoyed revisiting this experience.
That made me gasp, laugh out loud and shake my head multiple times Wil. WTAF.
I'm taking that as a compliment!! Thanks for reading, Nicky..I really appreciate it.
You’re insane...
haha. We're all born mad, Frank. Some of us remain so.

Absolutely fascinating and a great insight
Thanks, Johnnie. This one turned out much longer than I'd planned. Hope it was worth it.
It was worth it and going back through past posts is fascinating
Johnnie, thanks so much for the support. Just received the notification about your subscription. Means a great deal to me.
Hmph 😤
😇
Old people fucking 😱😤
This was a laugh-out-loud line!
This is already great, with numerous knockout lines, and I’ve only just read a sliver of it. Must get coffee and done some work. I shall return.
That really means a lot. Thanks, Karl.
For a moment I think I was there deep frying. Loved this.
Mate, thanks so much. I wasn't sure if this would be very boring detail to read or of at least some interest. It was fun to reminisce about at least.
