What was your favorite meal when you were a kid?  If you say Smoked Paprika Cured Hamachi.  I would say you had a very privileged childhood.   Most of the answers I got were things like spaghetti, hamburgers, macaroni and cheese.  Well picture this, a bunch of second graders being served a seven course tasting meal at one of New York’s fancy French restaurants.

Can you picture your own kids making barfing faces.  The meal usually goes for $220 per person, these kids were real troopers and tasted most everything. Except the little blonde boy in the brown suit.  He was really picky.

 

 

It was all done for the New York Times Fall Food issue. The six second graders are from P.S. 295 in Brooklyn. Star chef Daniel Boulud said he wanted, “the children to really discover a lot of flavor, a lot of layers, a lot of texture.” So he fed them things like Smoked Paprika Cured Hamachi, Crispy Japanese Snapper and Wagyu Beef Rib-Eye”.

 

 

 

Jeffrey Blitz, the director of the Oscar-nominated documentary “Spellbound,” made the video.
