This little French restaurant has an appetizer that cost $90 a 20 course dinner at this gorgeous restaurant in New York costed 320 bucks per person and this restaurant was ranked one of the best and most expensive places to eat on the planet but are these super fancy

Restaurants even that good I want to know so I’ll be dining at some of the world’s most luxurious restaurants to see if they’re actually worth the price or if they’re just a scam starting in Los Alamos California the uh one Michelin restaurants behind me this is Bells a French inspired beastro with one

Michelin star it’s run by Chef Daisy Ryan and it’s got $3 signs on Google that means expensive okay guys seriously look at this place it’s adorable it’s so tiny now the Michelin stars supposedly represent the highest level of food and restaurant experience possible that’s why eating at these restaurants comes

With a very big price tag but some people consider these restaurants overrated there’s only one way to find out though so here’s the thing I’ve never actually eaten at a Michin Star Restaurant before so I have no idea what to Expect morning coming so the inside of the restaurant was surprisingly pretty cozy and inviting this is what a fancy restaurant usually looks like pretty lame but here it feels like you’re just inside someone’s house so I just sat down and this place is even cuter inside than it is outside

I ordered a cup of coffee since it was 11:00 in the morning I feel Fancy with my coffee that a good coffee I needed that then I took a look at the menu and noticed there was an appetizer that costed $90 feels a little scammy to me okay so

My waiter said to get the Santa Barbara oi for the content so I did I also got snails the price definitely threw me off but it’s fine what I was most worried about was this review I found from De o don’t go here if you’re hungry this restaurant is stingy their Entre are

Tiny and I mean microscopic one star it didn’t take long for the food to come out and at first glance pretty small these are just the appetizers though so hopefully they taste good this is the Santa Barbara oi caviar panacotta fancy words but very cute spoon if you didn’t

Know oi is sea urchin this ugly guy I got a big scoop with my tiny spoon oh that’s that’s fantastic what thank you for recommending this so good right you try the uh snails let me know forgot I ordered snails how am I supposed to eat it okay so get a piece

Of the bread I was told to eat a piece of bread and dip it in here how I do this the snails weren’t bad they were actually pretty good with the appetizers out of the way I ordered a few Entre that way I could test all right I see the food coming out

It’s the moment of truth is it microscopic oh wo turns out this may have been a mistake whoa okay I don’t know what that review was talking about this is huge I got this egg salad sandwich pretty yummy and this giant pot of a muscles and Fries a lot of food I

Was told to take the fries and dip it in the broth that’s the best dipping sauce for French fries I’ve ever had the entire meal ended up costing $161.9 which wasn’t too bad since I ordered a lot of food very good okay now that lunch is over I definitely see why

This place has a Michelin star my favorite part was the fact that this restaurant feels very cozy and very inviting honestly y’all I’m expecting something completely different from the two and three star restaurants I am now in ter town in New York behind me is a 2023 Toyota Camry

The next restaurant that I’m going to is on a hill so I have to drive there I also brought my girlfriend hi Carrie hello so we’re driving to the restaurant now and I’ve only seen pictures of it online but the thing is it’s on a huge

Farm which is going to be so different than the tiny onear restaurant that I was just at but despite this restaurant supposedly being amazing there’s a lot of bad reviews about this place this guy Frank even said the restaurant was a big scam but I will be the judge of that we

Made it y’all this place is huge this is blue hill at Stone Barnes a two Michelin star restaurant focused on Farm totable style food owned by Chef Dan Barber and it has $4 signs on Google things are getting more expensive our reservation actually starts with a walking tour of the entire

Property but before we get into all that there’s some reviews I got to look at so this first review is from M smyrnov this one’s literally just a picture of a cat um and it’s one star so it also has three thumbs up so I don’t really know

What that means is this cat on like the property why would you give a cat one star did it like bite you or something I don’t really know what to expect but we’re going to I’m going to go walk now so the walking tour begins at the restaurant’s green houses where they

Actually grow all of their own vegetables this was supposed to be very educational but I’ll be honest I was focused on finding Mel’s cat nothing so far pretty sure that’s not a cat nothing in the distance either so far I’m not seeing any cats there are cute pigs

Though look at that oh wait I just realized are we going to eat them once the tour was over we were led to an area where there was an army of waiters and waitresses waiting for us how does this work for yes okay okay I know it’s confusing a bunch of people I’m Intimidated so we just got seated and um this place is crazy looking the dining area was massive and very f fancy it used to be an old dairy barn for the Rockefellers who were one of the richest families like ever just like they out of

Place cuz I’m just a boy so at a dinner like this the chef decides everything you’re going to eat this entire meal is supposed to be 20 courses so I have no idea what to expect but boy was I surprised when the first dish ended up being straight up raw vegetables do I

Dip this I don’t know I feel so lost now look I don’t hate vegetables but this is not what I expect to pay a lot of money for this is not off to the best start but it’s fine let’s check out the next review from Nicole s okay starting off

The concept is good the weight staff is admittedly impeccable and the service is absolutely designed to be catered to your every need however all of this is a little overwhelming the weight staff moves in complete Unison and I’m not exaggerating it’s honestly kind of creepy and cult likee one star for this

I’m just going to be observing everyone all of the white stuff in the restaurant I’ll let you know what I think the review seemed very exaggerated at first but after watching for a little while I know it’s not just me things feel a little weird I mean look at this dude’s posture

It’s perfect while I was people watching a few other courses came out along with this dude that sliced shuder at the table that was pretty cool also got this interesting rainbow trout and swordfish pastrami dish my girlfriend had a pretty accurate description for this it tastes

The way that leather smells is that good or very good for me I like it too so I don’t know then a few moments later they brought a dish called face bacon I’m going to blur this for yall it was basically pork rinds except served on a

Pig skull the pork rindes didn’t taste bad but while I was eating it all I could think about were the little piggies and to make it even weirder you are not going to believe what they brought out next this is pheasant which is a type of game bird it’s supposed to

Be really tasty and I was very excited to try it until they brought out a dead bird yeah a dead bird right so these are the feathers I wish I was making this up how do you feel about now eating the bird after seeing that I kind of feel guilty but also it

Was already dead so I think I’d feel more guilty if I didn’t eat it yeah I’m okay eating it but despite the interesting food choices I will say the service has been literally perfect almost too perfect though Nicole’s review was spoton the staff was impeccable but every single interaction

Felt rehearsed kind of like talking to an NPC in a video game if you know what I mean would you say it is slightly cult like honestly yeah it does kind of give that Vibe they’re a little sneaky so dinner’s wrapping up we just had dessert the thing

Is now I don’t know what to expect out of the three star Michelin restaurant the bill ended up being $1,524 and while there were some dishes I enjoyed I feel like spending this much money on mostly vegetables and a kind of uncomfortable experience was not my best financial decision Goodbye Blue Hill Stone

Barnes ooh it’s cold and San Francisco uh for Dylan yeah perfect so this next restaurant is a pretty big deal it was once ranked the 28th best restaurant in the entire world but after that last restaurant I have no idea if I should expect good things thank you too have a good

Night all right we made it wait hold on my brightness is low there it is holy cow I can’t believe we’re here welcome to benu it’s a three Michelin star contemporary restaurant focused on on Asian Cuisine it’s run by world-renowned Chef Cory Lee and you guessed it it has

Four doll signs on Google but despite being one of the best restaurants in the world the reviews are pretty harsh kiyoka H says the seasoning was not delicious the table attendant repeatedly took the food in the middle of eating one star or this one from ranting ya the

Food was creative but not to the three star level the service was awful you have to wave to get the waiter’s attention to add water or change plates for you one star I’m going to be honest I don’t know where else this guy is eating but he seems picky lastly we have

One from Jody I made a reservation for four people but had to change it they got mad I had four CEOs of top Silicon Valley startups with me bad service all around one star she was angry when she wrote this it’s time for my reservation uh here’s the thing I actually made the

Reservation for two people and it’s just me today so yeah time to see if they’ll get mad at me hello it’s for two but it’s just me tonight is that okay I was immediately taken and asked to sit in a waiting area while they figured out my reservation cool thank you appreciate it

I was a little worried this was going to be a problem but after a little while okay so I just got seated nobody got mad so we’re good so after being seated I was immediately handed a hot towel very fancy right off the bat guys this place

Feels way less overwhelming than the two star Michelin restaurant it feels kind of laidback which is surprising it’s still fancy but like not intense fancy it is a little awkward eating by myself though that’s the other camera now even though I’m pretty happy with everything so far there are three main issues with

This place I’ve already proved the first one wrong they didn’t get mad at me so that’s good we’ll see if the others are true though now dinner at benu starts with a few small bites like this thousand-year-old quail egg with ginger and cabbage juice it didn’t sound super

Appetizing at first but it’s plated very cute my initial thoughts absolutely amazing then the waitress recommended some fancy sake I ordered it but it turns out I don’t like sake it’s fine though I started chugging water to get rid of The Taste time to see if my water is going to get refilled

19 seconds so it seems like benu is off to a great start two of the harshest reviews are already busted now the next course is a crispy fried frog leg sauteed with chilies this is a first it kind of tastes like chicken it’s perfectly fried and so juicy now

Just like Blue Hill at Stone Barnes a majority of the next dishes were small bites but the flavors of of these were on another level I especially loved these pine of mushroom Xiao long bows which made a wave of nostalgia just hit me I used to eat these all the time as a

Kid and it’s the first dish that genuinely made me a little emotional oh my God those were amazing I’m pretty sure they almost made me cry so now that two of the bad reviews are completely busted there’s only one more to test so this next course was very big it was a

Variety of little dishes that that could be mixed and matched together there was half-dried fluke with seasonal vegetables marinated raw spot prawns cabbage manari kimchi rice and a bunch of other stuff I get to essentially eat this however I want I can make little

Wraps I can add the rice and eat it with the fish it’s a it’s a DIY meal of course this is the best opportunity for me to test kiyoko’s review I spent an aggressively long time eating all of the food and while I was mid bit a waiter

Actually came up to to me and said now did you want some more rice there um sure yeah okay I’ll let Chef know okay awesome thank you turns out they did the exact opposite of the review fantastic appreciate it and once I stopped eating because of the reviews I expected

Them to take the dishes away but they didn’t they let me finish the food bad review number three debunked the last two courses were both desserts still have no idea how I finished these I was stuffed i s in is wrapping up soon and I have some thoughts so far the experience

Has been unreal this is dramatically different than all of the other restaurants I’ve ever been to in my entire life the total cost of eating here was $199.95 which yes is a lot of money and did stress me out I still thought the creativity behind the food perfect

Service and just overall experience was definitely worth it they also took me back into the kitchen to meet the chef that was very cool thanks for joining us yeah appreciate it thank you nice to meet you likewise bye thank you yeah good luck with the video thank you

Appreciate it well there you have it there’s dinner at a three star Michelin restaurant it turns out not all of these restaurants are scams but some definitely are YouTube thinks you’ll like this video so go check it out bye
