THis article talks about the overall synergy of a dining expeirience. Four crucial elements are defined including Food, price, service, and ambeience. Some argue that the food is number one some say the ambeince and service is what brings them back. These four elements need to be all incorparated to get the full and best dining experince that is posible. The writer also talks about Umami, Yes Umami. this is a flavor profile where everything exists in harmony and it all makes sence. The writter gives the beatles as an example, with the four of them all had the umami effect on each other to create a truly memorbale expeirence for the listeners. this is what all restaruants should strive for and work at it until they can refine the experience they give the guests to the fullest.

I am one that will tend to side on the service aspect of the restaurant experience. Just as the article said; there are some chefs that may not be particularly excited about the food itself, but if the service is great, they will be back. If I go to a restaurant with mediocre food and exceptional service, I will continue to go simply for the service itself. I have been to many restaurants, from side bars and corner stands to five star establishments. The food will seem to fall out of memory, but the one thing I will always remember about each establishment is the service.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with what Ryan said, as I believe the same thing. Based on the four categories brought to the table in this article I would have to say service and ambiance are my number one and two. Service, in my opinion, has more potential to make or break a diners experience. Ambiance plays a large role for me, it has to be just right for me to be comfortable and if I can't get comfortable there is a very small chance I will be able to enjoy myself.
