Unique luxury restaurant uses iPad as a plate to hold food
Although expensive and luxurious, at the prestigious 3-star Michelin restaurant in San Francisco, the iPad is used as a tool to decorate food for diners.
Quince - a prestigious 3 Michelin star restaurant in San Francisco has caused a stir by using the Ipad - Apple's expensive tablet - as a... food plate for some special dishes.
"Having lived in San Francisco for over 20 years, I've seen the tech boom and I thought, why not combine it with food to create something different?", Quince owner Michael Tusk said in an interview.
Photos of food displayed on the restaurant's iPad shared on the Internet have stirred up media and online community attention.

In addition to the admiration and praise for the "luxury" of the 3-star Michelin restaurant, there are also mixed opinions. Many people think that displaying food on the screen of an iPad is not safe for food hygiene. Others think that the price of $220 for a dish displayed on a tablet is too expensive. However, most people support this bold idea of restaurant owner Michael Tusk.
"A Dog in Search of Gold" is a dish that Quince arranged on a luxurious tablet, this is the restaurant's extremely expensive Truffle (white truffle). When enjoying this dish, the Ipad screen will run a video about a dog hunting for truffles in the forest. Therefore, diners can both sip the flavor of the food and enjoy the liveliness and excitement that this service brings.

The truth is that Quince does not display the food directly on the iPad screen but on a transparent glass cover designed to protect the screen. However, this does not affect much the realistic feeling that the iPad brings when diners enjoy the food.
Another special thing is that the Plexi glass cover can be removed and disinfected after each use. Therefore, the restaurant completely ensures food hygiene and safety.
For $220 (about 5 million VND), are you willing to open your wallet to enjoy Truffle dish served on a "luxury" tablet from Apple?
