...markups on the minibar, barista-worthy machines that brew complimentary coffee grounds - add to the welcome. The hotel's restaurant, Opus, is locally celebrated for chef Todd Cheavins' seasonal cuisine (the current menu features things such as vanilla-seared scallops with crab salad and grilled red emperor fish with tempura zucchini flowers). For working it off, the azure indoor lap pool is impossible to resist, and joggers will appreciate proximity to the 1,000-acre (400 hectare) Kings Park and Botanic Garden.

...agricultural apocalypse still seems a long way off. But if the entomophagists have yet to win many converts, they've definitely earned the curiosity of the crowd, which huddles beneath a tent to watch Gordon and Gracer in a bug cook-off. Gordon serves his crickets orzo with tarantula tempura, which he makes by frying a fist-size arachnid. (I skip the spider. I like my job, but not that much.) It's Gracer who takes first prize, however, with a series of dishes, including a tasty salad with Queen Atta ants, stinkbugs and, best of all, waxworms, whose popcorn...

A kaiseki banquet consists of multiple elaborate minicourses of rare seasonal ingredients, most unknown outside Japan. More than a meal, it's a multidisciplinary feast for the senses. Since it has roots in the Zen tea ceremony...

...uses the machine to prepare desserts like cherries penetrated with vanilla and spice that still, remarkably, have the firm texture of freshly picked fruit. And Dufresne, chef at New York City's wd-50, eagerly awaits the arrival of his recently ordered Gastrovac to experiment with improving fried foods. "Tempura, for example, can be a tricky thing to make - the vegetables can get soft; seafood can be overcooked," he explains. "With its lower temperatures, maybe we can use the Gastrovac to make a better, more foolproof tempura." For the team at the Polytechnic, that kind of interest has been invigorating...
