A few things I made in the last few days. Fresh strawberry jam and danish made in the my bread machine and saute chicken with my version of cheese potatoes

I may come knocking on your front door with a hungry look about me. I'll pretend to be charming.

As presentation is ~ 5% of taste; this weighs in @ 100%, taste wise.

I keep seeing Scallops in everything! Are the potatoes sliced like one would do for an Au Gratin?

My Dad always said we eat first with our eyes and that a good presentation makes bad food taste good and a poor presentation makes good food look bad.

Sounds like you need to go get you some scallops somewhere

Very nice, as others have said, presentation is very important and you nailed it.

I certainly mean no disrespect to your father and I have seen others from BBQ Competitors to Michelin Star Chefs say the same thing, but I cannot agree with at least the 1st part of this statement. Bad food is bad food, no matter how pretty it looks. And I have eaten food that looks like slop that tasted wonderful, so all I can assume is I do not eat with my eyes at anytime!
Presentations is a beautiful thing and you and others do it very well on this site sometimes. But it is also what turns an $11 dollar dish into a $42 dollar dish! It has nothing to do with how good or bad a dish tastes.
