Behind the scene

Here is a quick glimpse at what is going on behind the scene and how all the dishes are put togheter.

I hired Yesi to help me out in the kitchen.  Here we are platting the first course.

First the hamachi is set on all 16 plates.

Then the sauce is poured over the Hamachi. 

Ha is helping me plate the pan seared mochi on each plate.

Next the avocado and radish salsa is spooned over the top of the Hamachi.

Final presentation

We are now platting the corn soup.  First the sautéed shrimps are spooned in the plate, next is the charred corn, and the croutons.  The bowl is brought over the table without the soup.

Once everybody got their bowl, me and Yesi we are going around the table to pour the corn soup.

Final presentation

We are now plating the ratatouille, prosciutto, and boiled egg.

Final presentation.

Loan is now helping me scoop the spaghetti into all the bowls.

Plating the last course.  Ha is helping me spooned over the cauliflower puree over each plate.

Final presentation.

That's a very quick of how all the dished were plated and served.  Of course, everything is cooked ahead and planned for so that when it is time to plate all the ingredients are available and served quickly.
