]]>Eating and drinking are obviously something primal and natural that we all have to do to survive. But in our modern-day society, it’s so much more than that. Eating is an experience. If it wasn’t, we wouldn’t spend countless moments just trying to decide what we want to eat. This “drama” is all part of the fun.
The same can be said about how our food is presented to us. You’d much rather drink orange juice out of a tall cold glass than a flimsy plastic cup. Technically it might taste the same, but psychologically our brains are convinced that the orange juice is much more delicious in that glass cup.
Such is also the case with serving food with regular silverware, china plates, and proper decorum. When you go to a restaurant, everything you see there is part of the presentation, and it contributes to your experience. You may not realize it, but this matters greatly when you decide if you want to come back next time. So give proper respect to presentation when it comes to food!

Professional chefs have mastered the art of symmetry when it comes to plating a dish. It’s the secret to beautiful looking food.
Herbs and edible flowers not only add flavor to your dish, but they act as a colorful decoration as well. A little bit of citrus zest can also go a long way.
While plating your meal, you may get a few drops of sauce or juice on the sides of your plate. Use a clean towel to wipe it away and make it seem as if the food just magically appeared on the plate.
Use bright colors to catch the eye of your guest. No artificial coloring is needed; you can color your food using matcha, beets, turmeric and more.
Even though herbs can act as nice decorations, be careful not to overcrowd your plate with garnishes. Less is more!

]]>There are some delicious foods that just never look like a gourmet meal. Lasagnas, plates full of beige foods (rice, potatoes, etc.), and soups can struggle to look fancy no matter how hard you try.
It’s easy to create a beautiful arrangement when you have a plate full of colorful veggies, but what about some not-so-colorful dishes? You can add sauces and dressings in complementary colors to achieve an amazing effect.
A patterned plate can look gorgeous by itself, but once the food enters the picture, it’s better to stick to a simple white plate — perhaps you can choose an unusual shape, such as a rectangle.
