Peach Melba, elBulli's last dish (2011)
For its final dish, the restaurant went for a homage to Auguste Escoffier's peach melba, using several different elements. It consisted of 3 stones simulating the stone of a peach, which was one of the ingredients in this dessert. There was an iced almond stone, an iced peach stone, and a toasted almond milk stone that was freeze-dried to achieve a very delicate, crunchy texture. They were served with fresh peach and custard.
