Before this year ends, I will upload one more video, where I will reveal my TOP 10 favorite restaurants of 2023. Any guesses which restaurants made my TOP 10?🔥

Not sure but I think, at least 7 of the 10 I mentioned might make the top 10. Core by Clare Smith, Mirazur, Le Cinq, Geranium, Central, Plenitude, Piazza Duomo, Boury, DiverXo, Iris.

I normally think these restaurants are incredibly expensive for someone with my income, but for a bit more than 170 euros, and a 17 course tasting menu this actually seems reasonable. Plus you get the warm up snacks. Each course is a work of art and if you figure it is about 10 Euros each that is not too bad for a work of art even if they are small.

fine dining has never been about the price to portion ratio, of course there are still unreasonable prices in some places but generally you are going to experience the restaurant as a whole as well as the food. Hours upon hours are spent on preparing ingredients with such intricacy and they're high quality. The severs/serviettes, the chef coming to see you and explaining the tradition behind dishes. The experience is more than worth it

You are absolutely right, but your comment also highlights why fine dining is not available to those who have to worry about the cost of food. For those who can't just go to the store and buy what they want, or for whom going out to eat is a luxury that is not cost effective most of the time. I went out to eat with my family to celebrate multiple birthdays and paid over $200 dollars for six people, maybe you think that is not a lot, but on my budget that was a lot, fine dining is really not an option for many. At the same time, I'm an a photographer who photographs the natural world and sells my images and I also feel that if you look at each of these dishes as a works of art then the price paid in this particular video is actually not very much. @@yournanshobnobs9707

Its ~400 Euro which is ~1600 Dirham you shaw on the bill

I love that Chef Saini prefers to crouch besides the table while talking with the customers, not having them look up just to talk to the chef, small detail but brilliant.

It creates a really different atmosphere, suddenly you are putting yourself bellow the customer ready to initiate a conversation! Breaks with the image of the authoritarian chef, looking from above with arms crossed. Bonus: allows you to rest a bit after long hours in the kitchen 😅

In France after service some chefs come and sit at your table for a drink .

400 Euros for that feels like a steal compared to some of the other restaurants you’ve reviewed. Beautiful food and story.

Most of the price difference with other places is probably in serving exclusive wines.

2 Michelin? This is easily a 3 Michelin. The whole experience and presentation is profoundly unique.

I went here back when they had 1 star and they were actually my first foray into Fine Dining and the first Michelin starred restaurant I had ever tried in my life!! They changed my perception of what great tasting food was and it was incredible!! I went back again earlier this year after they received their 2nd star and the difference was amazing!! I've been waiting for a while for you to review this restaurant and it definitely did not disappoint!!

I'm so glad to see this menu! As a french-indian cook, seeing Indian cuisine with such fine technique excites me deeply! Thank you for you vids team alexandertheguest !

Out of all your videos this restaurant has now topped my list of places to visit. The conception of the menu and experience is amazing!

Wow. This all looked great. Loved the look of the restaurant plus the different presentations. You notice how the owner/Chef bends down to talk to you. Humbleness. The food looked great. Love Indian food.

This is really different from other examples of fine dining. Very interesting approach to it all and a lot of fun to see a review

Absolutely incredible!!!!! Of all of your reviews, I feel this is the one I would most like to visit. Thanks for the journey!!

I went here on opening night - I told the chef that this place deserves 4 stars - I’m so happy for them

No, there's an Indian chef named Garima Arora who has a restaurent named Gaa in Bangkok, Thailand has also won 2 Michelin stars last year i.e. in year 2023.

this was an especially brilliant made episode!! Wow!!

This is on my bucket list! Fantastic.

170 euros for 17 courses seems like an actual incredible deal for a meal this special. The wine pairing bumping the cost up to 400 seems incredibly reasonable as well. As someone who does not drink alcohol much, I really appreciated how each drink was unique and not necessarily alcoholic for each dish. If I am ever in Dubai, I will have to ensure to make a reservation.

I've watched most of your videos, and I think this is the first time that you've ever said "I wouldn't change anything". That, in itself, must be the ultimate compliment!

It's probably because it's a different cuisine..

Cant get enough of your entertaining insight and superb editing, keep it up!

This is so unique and inspiring ❤ Thanks for sharing.

Lucky enough to live fairly close to London (but not in it!), which has a great selection of Indian restaurants with 1 Michelin star. At last count there are 7 and I've tried 3 of them, I like seeing their take on fine dining with a cuisine most Brits have grown up with (or its Bangladeshi equivalent).

Having spent my 20 first years of life, as an expat, in Singapore where there is very strong Indian cultural and culinary presence, it is such a pleasure to see the unbelievable food that I grew up on being represented with such emotion and finesse. Indian sauces can be as complex as the lauded Mexican mole. Anyone who has walked through the beauty of an Indian market with the stunning flower arrangements etc. will recognize the inspiration for the stunning presentation of these dishes. What an experience and the humility of the chef and his team exude India. Thank you for sharing Alexander. Hats off, as always for the incredible content.

Excellent review as per usual! Definitely not jealous!

wow - what a food adventure - love all in the series, but this one surpasses !!! the visual, the food, the drinks !! amazing creations

Absolute fantastic video!

One of best story line execution i have seen in a while ❤

I love the way Chef came to explain the dishes, incredible!

Oh boy I really enjoyed this episode it’s amazing I have never imagined Indian food to be fancy

It's an amazing experience. All of the Tresind locations are fantastic but this is second to none in the region. The UAE has a definite wine problem but the inventive pairing of juices, spirits and wine is amazing. They even serve and alcoholic deglazed pan sauce.

Great show and all of shows are great!

This is a quality channel should have 1million + subscribers. I really enjoy it.

Beautiful video. Probably best price vs quality restaurant in the whole of Dubai. Love it.

amazing food and amazing video! well done!

I'm a big fan of Indian food, and was totally exhilarated by the presentation of each dish. Incredible!

Awesome as always. Thank you and see you soon!

Once again, an amazing episode. I need to visit this restaurant the next time in in Dubai

Sir , your passion and enthusiasm is infectious to say the least. We are so proud and happy to see a caliber such as yours to describe each and every bite with such sincerity. I applaud your knowledge and eloquence regarding the description of each dish. Bravo !!! You are a master of what you do. ❤ Please, please do not ever stop being Alexander the guest !!!

I love all of the cups. Each one is unique but always attractive.

The best meal I had this year was at a Bengali restaurant that did a tasting menu that was 9 courses. It was incredible, quite possibly the best meal I've ever had.

Thank you for taking us through this luxurious dinning experience. Even tho i will never in my life experience this, I,m extided for every new video.

My first comment on your channel. Been subscribed since you started the channel around 5-10k members. Congratulations on another amazing video and I am so glad your channel has exploded and grown so rapidly. For anyone who loves chai like me, small tip, don’t forget to let the water/milk boil up and down 3-5X to get that dark brown color. I drink chai daily but with milk unlike the one in the video. What did you think of the tea?

Top notch service, an excellent experience!

thank you! always a great restraunt and food/ wine. cheers!

Love your content. Would love to see you come back to NY and perhaps do Masa? Happy Holidays!

unbeatable price/quality for such a gourmet journey. Love it. Nice videos by the way.

keep up the good work! love your vidéos ;)

I would love to go to a restaurant like this, perhaps not in Dubai. However, seeing this chefs soul shine in such a materialistic and vacuous place as Dubai, is heartwarming. Beautiful cuisine.

This was beautiful to watch. I am not a big fan of Indian food, but I hope to try this one day

I hope you can also review the three-michellin Sushi Saito and his sushi omakase. Love your videos! Without a question, the best KZreadr who reviews these kinds of restaurants!

Great video presentation.... 💯💯💯

Hey Alexander, absolutely love your content and have been binge watching your videos. Your visit to Central Peru featured a wine from my village in Bolivia, Camargo. And that reminded me that in La Paz, Bolivia we have Noma's co founders second restaurant Gustu. I'd love to see you paying a visit there!

Beautiful! Would love to try it sometime.

Such good value ❤

THANKYOU Alexander Realllly Appreciate you Exploring our food.

I would like to see more of your videos on Indian Restaurants

Gorgeous courses and delicious looking food.

I love how the snacks are served separately

Incredible, loved the presentation! Chapeau! I will drink a glass of Krug to your health. Cheers, Donald

Visiting Dubai (and its restaurants) is very high on my bucket list. Every course was appealing. Thanks for taking us along with you and Happy Holidays!

I've seen abominations in the name of Indian fine dining but the vada with kimchi is something I absolutely love. That is how you do it right and yes, I share your sentiments about the ghee roasted crab.

I just ate here and it's the best place I've been to. Much more impressive than some of the other names in Dubai. Only a matter of time before they get their 3rd star.

Good Stuff !! being an Indian I found it very informational. Will surely visit the next time I am in Dubai. Would you recommend any good Indian restaurant in Budapest (since you are from Hungary) ?

Since that video brought me here - a non-hollow pani puri with caviar on top was one of your courses at Alchemist!

Always can't wait for these to come out! Love the content! 🍾

I've come back from Dubai not to long and I wish I knew about this restaurant cause it looks absolutely amazing

While not cheap it all, seemed like excellent value for the spend

Love your chanel and your love for Krug wines, just had to mention - chef Garima Arora also indian , has 2 Michelin stars now!

I would like to see you review Eatrenaline, part of Europa Park in Rust, Germany.
