Food fashion in our time

L. to R.
Cocktail glass - prawns, mango, mayonnaise, whatever & perhaps with a prawn off the side. ("Vintage" dressing - equal parts ice-cream & tomato sauce.)
Ethnic - deep and moody, comfort food, any garnish will be "old school". (Jasmin restaurant.)
Stacked - layered, tall as possible (salad helps), generally circular, must be "deconstructed" to eat.

L. to R
Meat and Three Veg - homely, ticking off the five food groups.
Rustic - delicious gnocchi and mushrooms, artfully "plonked" on an earthy plate. (André's Cucina)
Verrine - Food piled in a glass (or even more on trend, in a preserving jar).

L. to R.
Zen - conscious simplicity and perfection - C.M.'s Peach Melba 
Take-away - when the going gets tough. (Just a personal social experiment, of course.)
Geometric - Raspberries and Pistachio - Paris, Le Grand Véfour, my spiritual home.

L. to R.
Linear - a string of ingredients rather than a recipe!
Scatterings - bits of this and that, arranged...
Spoons - for tiny morsels of deliciousness - cocktail food, pre-prandial nibbles, canapés. (Never anywhere to put the empties.)
