Some people spend years refining their palates and delight in finding new tastes and flavour combinations. Others find comfort in sticking with what they know. Both are fine but I treat food as a bit of a hobby now and as I get older want to collect experiences as much as I do things. I prefer my way, it’s just a lot more expensive!

Some of us like to do both. Enjoy the classics and dabble in the new hoping to find a new classic.

My last evening meal in Nuremberg was at 2* etz, with a really strong theme so preserving foods as well as using as much of them as possible. As a result the evening starts with a brief tour of some of their facilities, where they’re making their own fish sauce and soy, pickling and preserving, fermenting etc. I was sat at the pass so it was interesting to see dishes being prepared. The big problem was just how long it took - 13 courses, but spread out over 5 hours! It’s just too long and I did flag a few times.

Obviously just a selection, there aren’t 13 courses pictured!

This was one of the accompanying drinks rather than a course in itself - essence of tomato with rocoto chilli. A clear liquid, tinged slightly with colour but tasting so strongly of tomato, it’s quite clever. A Japanese kaiseki restaurant I used to go to in New York (Sugiyama) used to do something similar before it sadly closed.

This negroni-alike was made from the essences of various flowers and was delicious - recommended to try at various dilutions as the ice melts, just like you would a negroni, I drank far too much of it early on!
