My Experience Eating in the Best Restaurant in the World

I know we're living in scary and uncertain times right now, so I thought I would publish a light hearted video that can hopefully get your mind off of things for a little while. A lot of people have requested my "normal" content, and in no way do I mean to downplay what's currently happening, but since we're all already bombarded by the news as it is, I figured this might be a nice little respite.
This was my experience eating in what many would call the best restaurant in the world, Osteria Francescana, owned and run by chef Massimo Bottura.
Through a lucky series of events, I had the opportunity to take a little trip to the Italian town of Modena where the restaurant is located. Honestly the whole thing was an adventure, including just getting the reservation!

    I will admit, I was on the fence about posting this video right now considering everything going on in the world. I do not want to come across as insensitive, but I noticed that all of the news has started to really weigh on me. Making this video and reminiscing on good memories did me a world of good, and I hope this video can be an enjoyable little respite from the uncertain times we’re in. Please take care of yourselves. Much love.

    I totally understand, some persons might not react well to this, but for me this was a delight! I smiled the whole time! Most importantly, regardless of those that might not understand, this is needed. We need moments of respite from these strange difficult times! We need to look forward to better days (which will come) and to cultivate the “small joys” (like watching this KZread video) to keep our mental health during this lockdown period.

    There's a story my parents tell me everytime about Osteria Francescana. I live literally one street away from that restaurant (i'm from Modena), so when it wasn't really famous yet my parents decided to give it a try. I was three years old by then, and I was very picky on my food, so I wouldn't eat anything that wasn't pasta with tomato sauce. This is the story of how I went in the best restaurant of the world, that served all this delicious and elaborate dishes, and I made them cook pasta with tomato sauce just for me (which was, according to my mom, the best she's ever tried in her life). P.S. Hope to meet you next time you get here in Modena, Nat!

    The only thing that has annoyed me while dining at a great restaurants is that sometimes the service can be a little overwhelming. Having 2 waiters standing like guards on either side of the table and refilling glasses as soon as you take a sip was a bit too much for me. I wanted a little more calm and privacy to enjoy the meal.

    It's a pretentious "tasting" restaurant, there's so many of them in Europe, especially the famous trio (France, Italy and Spain), it's not meant for the general public but for the rich folks that have pretty much tried everything and looking for a "new" taste, it doesn't mean it will be any good or craveable but "different". The only reason these places are highly regarded is due to exclusivity, for example the most expensive things are usually limited/exclusive (clothing, cars, watches, tech..etc) wealthy people eat that shit up and the general population fawns over them.

I'd bet I'm poorer than you but it looks like you have the mentality of a resentful lower middle class worker who wants to snob high quality jobs. Some people simply do NOT taste food the same way others do, just like different people handle alcohol well or badly. It takes a simple high school education to understand, it's not hard. Also, I can't help but notice you think people richer than you are all the same. Some people are so disgustingly rich they have no need to go to "Exclusive" places. That's for people who make millions and still need an image. The higher strata of rich people have no such need for these places, they can literally get Gordon Ramsay's number in under a minute.

    Went to a place almost identical to this called Donde Jose in Panama. It was an incredible experience. Had to make reservations months ahead of time, only 11 tables in the restaurant, kind of hidden away in a little alley where a guy pops out and invites you in. A beautiful tasting menu with unique flavors that told stories of the local culture. Waiters standing nearby on demand for everything you need. Michelin star chef as well. And hot towels after every tasting course. Things are cheaper in Panama so that kind of experience cost me and my boyfriend only $300 total (for two people, including alcohol) which I thought was an incredible price for the experience we had.

    È un'esperienza che dura cinque ore. Non è un ristorante normale, pensa a come vieni coccolato nell'esperienza, alle materie prime ed al lavoro intellettuale che c'è dietro. Non so, perché abbiamo sempre st idea che ci stanno fregando? C'è un mercato libero, se l'osteria francescana rimane in piedi vuol dire che a livello economico è tutto come dovrebbe essere. Comunque 300 menu + 200 vino (non tavernello btw) e dunque prendetela come una vacanza invece di andare a Londra e mangiare 5 giorni kebab che alla fine spendi uguale considerato il viaggio nell'interezza.

    @@votdfak it's not overpriced. The point is just about one concept: Confidence. Just like a swiss watch that costs what it costs, because when you buy it you know the materials and the craftsmanship are astonishing. Could a chinese worker do the same with same results? Probably, but the fact that it is made in China doesn't give that the same level of confidence. Now apply this concept to all brands, from Apple to Gucci, from Ferrari to Porsche and so on. The same applies to this restaurant. You're paying an experience, not just what you are eating, just like when you buy anything I mentioned you are buying the status that comes with that stuff. Therefore the price is absolutely justified, otherwise Osteria Francescana would shut down immediately.

Hoping that you’ll be able do enjoy our Bel paese more in the future. It will take much more than a virus to break our spirits. Now it’s a dark moment in the world history, but I’m sure that together we’ll be able to get up again. (I’m in the northern part of Italy, it’s been nearly a month since the start of this lock down, but there is nothing to worry about. I have faith in medics and researchers, they’ll find a cure in no time, be sure of that 👍🏻)

I jumped forward to a random point, and after I had been watching for 3 secs I realized I was wrong. So I started from the top. And congrats dude, I could have never expected to agree with every second of your speech. Eating in a starred restaurant (I did it eleven times fortunately) is not just eating. The concert/festival comparison is the same I always make to explain why spending that money is ok.
