We like a good excuse to be gluttons, so the Chef & I went to one of our favorite restaurants on Valentine's Day. It's a tiny diner-type place that only seats twenty people -- as this whole joynt seems to be the folly of the chef. Everyone who works there (all four of them?) is quite friendly, and despite the innovative fancy food, it's a casual place -- a five star meal in a diner.
By the time we got to the third course, we realized the trick. No cutlery! Even the meaty stuff was skewered on licorice sticks (not the droopy candy kind, but the stick-like root that tastes like licorice when you suck on it -- but do not tell anyone that I did indeed suck on a stick.)
Everything was finger-lickin' delicious and completely fork-less. Good trick!
