Don't you want to eat at elBulli? The world's best restaurant? The one that's only open for 7 months out of the year? That sits on top of a mountain 2 hours from Barcelona? Where you are served 30 courses during 4 hours and the only question you're asked regarding menu options is "Do you eat offal"? Where you will pay an average of $355.90 for those 30 courses?
Yes? Worried about the steep price of the meal (and the cost of flight, lodging and transportation in Spain)? Don't be! You have at least 5 years to save up for what will probably be the most exciting meal of your life, since they only take reservations one day and one day only and on that day you will be one in 2 million people vying for 8,000 spots.
It took the Amateur Gourmand 5 years to win a coveted reservation and so that the rest of us can dine vicariously through him, he documented the whole experience with a mixture of YouTube videos and Comic Life comic strips.
I wish I had a person in my life so dedicated to eating out that they would take it upon themselves to spend the time necessary to know when elBulli is taking reservations and try to get those reservations year after year. Because I would happily go there ... if someone else did all the work.
