Itprovides future chefs with the prerequisites to cultivate a professional viewpoint of plating by considering the different ways a chef looks at food.

- Where in the menu is this food item to be placed?
- What food is selected? How is the food prepared? How will it be served?
- How is it presented in relationship to other food on the plate?
- How much will it cost?
Plating exposes a chef’s deepest beliefs about what food is, and how food should be. Structured as a design process, Cooking to the Image: A Plating Handbook outlines how personal creativity and professional traditions fuse to create successful plated presentations of food.
