Wall Street Journal had a piece about small restaurants like Momofuku Ko in NYC, Cage Atlantico has the Andre's Minibar in Washington. The cost for minibar is $120 (without tax, drink). You get a constant "flow" of food.
Ko does not have a sign. There only 12 people at a counter and you have to reserve sometimes a month in advance. You don't get bread, and there is no menu. You eat by sitting on a stool! Most servings are served in bowls.
Some of the recipes that came to this editor were: shaved foie gras atop lychee; lasagne with escargot and porcini mushroom and ricotta. Small plates and odd ingredient recipes and more are the norm. Definitely for some people.

Tiny space, huge price but you might try it if you can get a reservation
