Indeed, they were worshiped by the 80 or so foodies able to lay down $5,000 a head for a round of tastebud-zapping dishes by Thomas Keller (the French Laundry in Napa Valley and Per Se in New York City), Heston Blumenthal (The Fat Duck in Berkshire, England), Ferran Adria (El Bulli, outside Barcelona) and Tetsuya Wakuda (Tetsuya...
