Besides creating a sense of intrigue when its mechanical arms open and close every 30 minutes (like the hour-long rotation of a clock’s minute hand), this system powers a rotisserie where pineapples are spit-roasted for the restaurant’s highly recommended 19th-century tipsy cake.With careful preparation, exceptional presentation and creative plating, the dishes embody Blumenthal’s talent for innovative, experimental cooking. The starter meat fruit looks like a mandarin, but when sliced open, reveals a velvety chicken liver parfait in mandarin gel to be enjoyed with toasted sourdough. Inspired by the medievalpome dorresor “apples of gold,” it is prepared over a few days, with three cooks on the cold larder station working five hours daily.For tableside theatrics, order the nitrogen ice cream trolly. This popular dessert is inspired by the work of 19th-century culinary entrepreneur, inventor and chef Agnes B. Marshall, who is believed to be the first person to reference the potential use of liquid gas to speed up the process of making ice cream.
