 Bite-sized street-food. Ingredient-driven, hyper-seasonal, a blend between "high-brow" and "low-brow". Imagine what a street "kaiseki" or barbecued "cuisine vegetal" would be like. The portions should be tiny, handheld for those on the move. Alternatively, a liquid dish can be slurped from a wooden bowl which guests carry with them at all times. Techniques can include both the traditional and innovative - anything goes, so long as it brings out the genuine deliciousness of the ingredients. Food is served either on communal platters, or in simple pots/bowls. If dishes are packaged, the packaging should be either compostable or reusable.  Bite-sized street-food.
