That's How It Happened

"To start off, David Myers of Sona in Los Angeles concocted a reception of duck confit eggrolls topped with lime pickle aioli and peekytoe crab beignets, all washed down with Dom Perignon Brut 1999. Then came the main courses. Adria prepared Ostras Con Pistachio Verde y Citricos (oysters with green pistachios and citrus; Wakada presented Ravioli of Asahi Crab with Crab Terrine and Finger Lime; Daniel Boulud (of Restaurant Daniel in New York City) produced Wild Scottish Grouse with Sarawak Pepper Cromesquis; and Thomas Keller came out with Four Story Hill Farm Cuisse de Poularde with King Richard Leeks, Spice-Poached pruneaux d'Agen and Black Winter Truffle Coulis. Renowned pastry chef Pierre Herme, who runs swank tea rooms and boutiques in Paris and Tokyo, came up with dessert."

On top of this diners got three courses by Trotter himself, and The Sound of the Sea by Heston Blumenthal. All star dining, but at an all star price of $5000. (via Coudal)
