"On paper, a six-hour meal may sound like a chore. But an hours-long meal at Alchemist is a wild, full-on theatrical experience—think El Bulli meets Broadway. You’ll be whisked through multiple different rooms throughout the night, where 50 tiny courses called “impressions” are served. The idea is to surprise and delight, so prepare for a lot of emotions, like joy (when you receive a glass of champagne and a perfectly whipped omelet) and slight apprehension (when a dish that looks like a tongue is placed in front of you). But don’t worry: it’s all delicious." - Mary Holland
