I Spent 24 Hours at a 3 Michelin Star Restaurant

3 Michelin Stars is the pinnacle of restaurant accolades anywhere in the world. But with many 3 Michelin star restaurants costing upwards of $500 all in, are they actually worth the price? Today we'll find out by taking an inside look into not only what the dinner experience is like, but what top notch service, thoughtfulness, and quality look like at a 3 Michelin star restaurant. We'll also look at just how much work goes into getting food onto your plate, and we'll finish by answering the question on whether or not it's worth it.

📍 SingleThread by Kyle and Katina Connaughton in Healdsburg, California

Today we're exploring SingleThread in Healdsburg, California. It has 3 Michelin stars for its restaurant, 3 Michelin keys for its hotel, and a Michelin green star for sustainability. Many believe that it's the best restaurant in the United States and it's in the Top 50 Restaurants in the world. What do you think?

Let me know in the comments where I should go next!

It seems like the kind of experience that will be triggered in your memory twenty years from now, and you’ll just smile. And that makes it worth it.

This is insane, I am both in awe at how expensive, but also inexpensive, the meal and experience is

I wish your long-form content got more views, it's really good stuff.

Honestly thats less than I thought it would be! Not only do I one day want to experience something like this, but I really want to be able to create something special like this 💜

Looking forward to coming here in a month!

I had my eye on this restaurant when I traveled up to Healdsburg. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a reservation. I ended up staying at the Hotel Healdsburg and dining at Dry Creek Kitchen within the hotel all 3 nights I was up there. It was a very good experience overall and I'll be back soon.

Korean-Inspired Spicy Potato Aligot with Spaghetti
Yields: 4 Servings
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
* For the Aligot:
* 2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
* 1 cup heavy cream, warmed
* 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cubed and softened
* 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
* 1/2 cup shredded Gruyère or sharp cheddar cheese
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
* For the Spicy Spaghetti:
* 12 oz spaghetti
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 tablespoon Korean chili powder (Gochugaru), adjust to taste
* 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
* 1 bay leaf
* 1 tablespoon dried tomato paste
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
* Make the Aligot:
* Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
* Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash them thoroughly until smooth.
* Gradually whisk in the warm cream until incorporated.
* Reduce heat to low and add the butter, one cube at a time, whisking constantly until melted and smooth.
* Gradually add the mozzarella and Gruyère (or cheddar), whisking continuously until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth and stretchy.
* Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder (if using) to taste. Keep warm over low heat, stirring occasionally.
* Prepare the Spicy Spaghetti:
* Cook spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
* While the spaghetti is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
* Add Korean chili powder, rosemary, and bay leaf. Cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
* Stir in tomato paste and cook for another minute.
* Add the cooked spaghetti and a splash of pasta water to the skillet. Toss to coat well.
* Season with salt and pepper to taste.
* Serve:
* Spoon the aligot onto individual plates. Top with the spicy spaghetti.
* Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, cheesy, and spicy combination!
Tips & Substitutions:
* Use a ricer or food mill for the smoothest aligot.
* Adjust the amount of Korean chili powder to control the heat level.
* You can substitute other types of cheese, but make sure they melt well.
* Feel free to add other ingredients to the spaghetti, such as sauteed mushrooms or garlic.

How can you afford places like this. I'm jealous

At 0:35 bare hands handling food is a big no no if the food after isn't treated with heat.

[mohdramzdhan]

When foodies always put a comment on the food they taste : THIS IS THE BEST FOOD I'VE EVER TASTE IN MY LIFE
