Had something similar back in December from Los Angeles restaurant, Vespertine. We got the separate components for all the dishes and then heated and plated them ourselves. It was a great experience!

This is a different package than what we had, but should serve as an example of what to expect from Vespertine (https://www.exploretock.com/vespertine/experience/261739/men...)

Vespertine is simply magical, highly recommend it to anyoen who wants to push the boundaries of experiential dining/molecular gastronomy (in-person).

You didn't mention the best part in my experience... each dish had a QR code sticker that you scanned and it pulled up an evocative image and story of how they meticulously chose those ingredients and the story behind the dish and why they chose it/ties into the theme of the overall 8+ course meal.

Please scan the QR codes, it makes the experience feel way more intimate and connected like you are talking to the head chef and team directly!

This is a really good idea.
Yeah right now you get a sporadic one here and there and we're trying to make it a consistent experience all in one place. Reminds me of early days when I started using airbnb - I was also randomly doing this on craigslist...
