Rotten shark for Christmas, desserts disguised as fruit — how far would you go on a food adventure?

This week's food stories range from Iceland's fermented shark tradition to trompe-l'œil mousse desserts and the authenticity debate — let's see how adventurous an eater you really are!

1. In Iceland, a traditionally fermented, "rotten" shark dish is eaten first at Christmas – it's so pungent that many people put on separate clothes just to eat it. Would you try it if you were celebrating there?
2. At a restaurant in Rimini, a guest asked for well-done scrambled eggs – the waiter's Italian note to the kitchen, telling them to burn the dish, ended up printed right on the receipt. How would you react if you saw this on your own bill?
3. How much do you agree with the following statements?
4. How important is it to you that a restaurant preserves the traditional, "grandma's kitchen" flavors in a classic dish, like túrógombóc (curd dumplings)?
5. How many times a week do you eat something that's a distinctly nostalgic, childhood-memory food (e.g. stuffed dishes, traditional pastries)?
6. What excites your gastronomic curiosity the most? (multiple answers possible)
7. According to Nobu Matsuhisa, what matters isn't whether a restaurant "looks" Japanese, but that people know they're at a Nobu. Do you agree that a famous chef can freely depart from traditional culinary rules as long as they keep their own style?
8. Is there a dish you'd like to try but haven't dared yet? Write down what it is and why you hesitated!
