Imagine a highly refined, incredibly complex, date-appropriate version of Flintstones chewable vitamins.
Then add a bunch of edible flowers, medicinal water and a multicourse menu that reads like a prescription,
cures like penicillin and tastes like the work of a Michelin-starred maestro.
So when you’re ready to schedule a checkup, head over to the Dream Downtown, where deep in the cellar
you’ll find a windowless, transparent, butterfly-embossed doctor’s office masquerading as a restaurant.
Each evening, multicourse meals are prepared by a 57-year-old Argentine doctor using a Mad Libs mashup of
fresh ingredients. Some sourced from the farmers’ market (black truffle, daikon radish, ground coffee).
Some invented in a lab.
Sitting beneath a large translucent disc and bright white spotlight, you’ll examine each of the dozen
dishes that come across your (operating) table. There’ll be molecular marvels like pansy-decorated
shellfish, gold-leaf-topped chocolate truffles and mosaic-tiled vegetable soup that’s hydrated
tableside.
