les violons vertigineuses
A small pantry moth surreptitiously lays its eggs inside the chef's ear. The chef becomes disoriented and fills his piping bag with hot smashed potatoes and horseradish. The chef pipes the mixture into the Maître d's eyes before Gordon Ramsay appears in a daydream to tell the chef how very much he adores him. $415 USD

face brûlée
The dining party's face is dry rubbed with a brown sugar, kosher salt, chili powder, and black pepper combination. The nose is studded with clove and the lips are swabbed with habanero and vinegar based hot sauce. A brûlée torch is used to crisp the skin of the face which can then be eaten by others in the privacy of the burn unit of the nearest hospital. $700 USD
frais de la ferme
Crisp and aromatic seasonal ingredients are sought at the local farmer's market. Fresh fish are selected by the chef's fastidious eye. Goofy ideas about the mailman are mulled. $550 USD

celui qui s'est enfui
Panko crusted baked halibut in a lemon butter sauce with a side of carrots glazed in a ginger ale reduction are spilled on the floor after the distracted waiter collides with a lady in an orange hat. The orange hat is a pylon. No, it's a deflated basketball. $650 USD.
baked arkansas
The inebriated chef strips nude and hides beneath the table begging for scraps of his own dishes. The police are summoned and arrest the chef for lewd behavior and failure to pay child support. $245 USD

rigorlicious
Congealed pig fat with mint jelly atop rye toast is served to a man who has died 2 hours prior. $470 USD
last rites
Airlifted from the Tour de France, a concussed bicyclist struggles to maintain consciousness as sticky sweet raspberry preserves drip from his ears. Peanut butter soup is delivered intravenously while a voodoo priestess huffs an oxygen/helium blend from a hookah made of sculpted ice. $1200 USD
un dieu est mort
Watercress sandwiches are nonchalantly thrown in the trash against a hand painted backdrop of starving African children with distended abdomens. $400 USD
le dernier acte du faisan
During a seance, a levitating blindfolded pheasant hovers around the dining room before being sucked into a jet engine along with 2 cups chopped scallion and 1 cup heavy cream. The result: a sumptuous puree which is poured down the blouse of a recent widow. $475 USD
assassination of eggs
Dim fluorescent lights flicker as a string quartet is hastily assembled and forced at gunpoint to provide musical accompaniment to the sanguine spectacle of a hen suspended 5 centimeters above a clan of hyenas while she lays her eggs. $625 USD
