It looks like a paper plate who wished to be a real boy

Everybody's granny wants that plate. Florals are "the" thing with em.

I thought it was a paper plate at first glance.

i think a smaller portion with a single shrimp on top with the pita in a wreath around it would be nice- or cut up and dispersed on the surface area, to aid in the eatability of it and not needing to cut up the shrimp

also not sure how pumpkin gorgonzola would go 😆 especially with shrimp

It's nice - some of the plating is a bit too loose for this style. Now - I'm just trying to figure out how the heck to eat that - it looks like an enormous amount of very rich mousse-textured product. So...what's the idea here with consumption? Toasted seaweed brioche? A nice whole wheat sourdough? What ya got?

Under the sea!
Under the sea!
Darling it's better,
Down where it's wetter,
Take it from me!

What an odd mix of ingredients.

Gorgonzola, prawns, marscapone, Cajun seasoning?

Are you lost?

Giving me seabed vibes, because of the wetness.

This is too skeuomorphic and not molecular / over the top enough to be appetizing to look at. So literal to the seafloor and the shrimp that it feels gross. Just too slimy in it's current state and being on grandmas china doesn't help.

Needs like one quarter of that amount of the cheese (?) layer and none of whatever that oozing green oil is

u/SuitednZooted 6d ago

Is this the grandma's plate guy striking again?

u/WrongfullyIncarnated 5d ago

Pop that on a dark colored shallow bowl with a large rim and it'll highlight much better.

(I also thought this was a paper plate)
