That's ... just an amazing concept that I, as a hack photographer, have never really followed ... but now I'm totally visualizing plates of food in my head that way. Ha! Good to hear him note that food should be about the people you're with, the conversations you have, etc. That's not a business model that maximizes profit but does maximize enjoyment. That builds return customers, I believe, and it makes what you're doing <em>worth</em> doing. I love how Mark discussed using design techniques in plating food.
