DAE find the emphasis on plating aesthetics in our district's restaurants distracting from the food itself?

Fancy arrangements often don't enhance the taste, just the Instagram appeal.

My buddy's burger last week was a tiny tower on a huge plate, just like brown.reese said, totally forgot the food.

Ever been so into a meal you forgot what the plate looked like? Where's the line between a nice presentation and just a show?

But is a pretty plate really such a big deal compared to bad food?
