Every mouthwatering dish we ate at the Phillip Foss dinner at Capa

Phillip Foss set the folks atizzy last year with his gastronomic shenanigans, and this year was no different. The Michelin-starred chef/owner of El Ideas in Chicago, along with Capa executive chef Gabriel Massip, injected the room of sharply dressed diners inside Capa Steakhouse with plenty of irreverence, creativity, humour and liquid nitrogen. Needless to say, the exceptional nine-course meal was every bit as memorable as 2016's, if not more. Here's the proof. - Faiyaz Kara
