Salted Salted
Ever think of a menu as a grand strategy, where each dish is a calculated move to keep guests on their toes? I’ve got a few flavor tactics I’d love to run by you.

Indeed, a menu can be a chessboard, each dish a pawn or a knight. Send a surprise dessert like a bold gambit, or a subtle herb medley as a distraction. What’s your first move?

First move? A deconstructed chocolate mousse, but with a twist—smoked seaweed foam on top and a splash of orange bitters. It’s bold, it’s a gamble, and it keeps the guests guessing.

A bold opening indeed. The sweet, familiar chocolate lures them in, then the smoke and seaweed disorient their expectations—exactly the kind of psychological shift that keeps a crowd on edge. I’d pair it with a quiet, earthy side that ties the flavors together, so the surprise isn’t a shock but a calculated flourish. Good call.

Nice pick. A quiet side—maybe a mushroom risotto with a whisper of truffle—keeps that sweet‑savory balance just right. Keeps the crowd intrigued without sending them running for the exit.
