Alinea - Thai Banana

Dish 10: Thai Banana with beer, mustard, pecans.

As you can see, some of our "courses," were rather small, while others were quite generous in portion.

This dish was served on a chilled platform, that the servers presented on little spatulas. The dish was speared with a needle, which we used to pop the item into our mouths. I would say that the kitchen was too successful in keeping the dish cold, as it was a tad too chilled to appreciate the flavors. The banana was very thick and smooth, and really felt almost like a good creamy, cold ice cream.
