It turned out to be two regular red radishes, cut in half, and served raw, with just a sprinkle of some seasoning on them, but without any sauce, dip, or anything else. We still chuckle about the very expensive “root-vegetable appetizer” we once ordered. Theatrics and gimmicks are fine, I suppose, but there better be something extraordinary about the food. I do not mind shelling out some extra dough at times for a great dining experience, but a non-negotiable item in “great dining experience” should be some great food.
