Nastiest looking restaurant dishes

From Top Chef Season 2 “winner” Ilan Hall’s new place in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (I have not been nor plan to go after seeing this photo):

Kentucky Fried Smigel?

Shake and Bake?

His first restaurant in Dtla does all kinds of cool funky stuff like that. Love me some chicken feet!



The chicken schnitzel ($17), too, was perfectly executed, two pieces pounded so that they were still identifiable as breast and leg-thigh. > The leg still had the talon attached — uselessly it turned out, because it hadn’t been cooked in a way that would allow you to eat it. > (The Chinese prefer braising or steaming.)

Almost look like one of the sous chef accidentaly dropped the feet and forgot to remove it as the server took the dish.
