Silk Experience is dining on a whole different level
More than just dinner, each Experience is a unique creation of artistic expression.
It starts with a theme, or philosphical idea- this will be the filter for all other aspects of the Experience, making each component an expression of the theme.
The style or culture of the cuisine is selected and weeks of research begins. Each course is created, an expression of theme and culture, and then placed consciously in the order of the menu. Each dish is steeped in traditional ideals, but is an expression not an approximation of cultural food. Each bite is created specifically for the Experience it is a part of.
It doesn't stop with the food, the Experience is sculpted to reflect the theme potentiallly using many mediums such as music, multimedia elements and interactivity.
What is the inspiration?
The inspiration for Silk comes from searching for cultural integrity, human connectivity and how food can transcend sustenance and provide nourishment for the mind, body and soul. The inspiration for each dinner will be unique, but aspects of that inspiration will be reflected in the environment, materials, presentation, facilitation and of course, the food. One muse for the flavors of the Silk dinners come from the Far East, but inspiration can be found everywhere in the global village for those with open eyes, hearts and palates.
