SEATTLE—Ever wonder what a 30-course dinner cooked up by Modernist Cuisine chef Maxime Billet would taste like? Eater Seattle reports that 25 seats to the first-ever "Modernist Cuisine Feast" are now up for auction on eBay, with proceeds benefitting a slew of charities, including Hunger Intervention Program, Food Lifeline, and the Farmer's Coalition. Current minimum bid for the June 21 dinner is $610; check the eBay link for some major menu porn (the "Tasting of NW Shellfish" section features a spaghetti alle vongole with "geoduck, vacuum-molded, centrifuged broth").
