Gone are the days of being served food in regular bowls and on normal plates. These days, normal dishes are becoming obsolete, and they are instead being replaced by odd excuses for dishes. It's a strange phenomenon that seems to be occurring in the more fancy, hipster, and posh restaurants in the world. It's fine for restaurants to want to be different, and stand out from the rest, but when is enough, enough?

Ridiculous plating methods come in many forms. From slabs of wood with everything from a sandwich to bacon and runny eggs on them, to tacos being hung by clothespins, these restaurants have no limits when it comes to what they're going to serve food on.

Here, we have collected 25 photos people have taken of different plating methods and styles they have been served while dining out. Things are getting crazy in the fine-dining community, and these plates are going too far.
