Futurist Food

Quote:
Aerofood: A signature Futurist dish, with a strong tactile element. Pieces of olive, fennel, and kumquat are eaten with the right hand while the left hand caresses various swatches of sandpaper, velvet, and silk. At the same time, the diner is blasted with a giant fan (preferable an airplane propeller) and nimble waiters spray him with the scent of carnation, all to the strains of a Wagner opera.


Equator + North Pole: "An equatorial sea of golden poached egg yokes" surrounds a cone made of whipped egg whites. This is "dotted with orange segments like succulent pieces of the sun" and black truffle carved to look like airplanes.

The Excited Pig: A "whole salami, skinned" is cooked in strong espresso coffee and flavored with eau-de-cologne.

Candied Atmospheric Electricities: Brilliantly-colored bars of marbled soup, filled with sweet cream.

Diabolical Roses: Red roses, battered and deep-fried.

Simultaneous Ice-Cream: Vanilla dairy cream and little squares of raw onion frozen together.
What, no bacon?
