The Art of Building a Menu With Shared Plates | Bon Appétit
"I respect Nick Tamburo’s stance at Smithereens in New York—he refused to re-engineer a delicate sea bream crudo in melony leche de tigre for easier division and instead encourages diners to embrace the intimacy of eating directly off the serving dish and passing it around, while still offering share plates for guests who prefer not to. It’s a deliberate choice to preserve flavor and nuance even if it asks tables to be bolder about sharing." - ByMaggie Hennessy
