Restaurants Plate of the week
Posted by Cliff Bostock @cliffbostock on Thu, Apr 17, 2008 at 4:05 PM
In some restaurants, plating is everything. The original Spice (soon to be Straits) was that way. Each plate was a work of art; unfortunately the components were often rather tasteless.
Then there are others for whom plating seems to have no meaning. That's not always the case at Grant Central Pizza on Cherokee Avenue, but this dish — risotto with chorizo — has to be the most unappetizing plating I've encountered in a long time. I'm not going to say what it looks like to me. I leave it, like a Rorschach inkblot test, for you to make your own associations.
It did taste good, however!
