Double wow. Check out FancyFastFood.com, the work of Erik Trinidad, who buys (as I read in an AP story) fast-food dinners, deconstructs them in his kitchen and then reassembles them into meals resembling haute cuisine. He posts about once a week: Popeyes fried chicken becomes “Spicy Chicken Sushi,” Dunkin’ Donuts cream-filled beauties get scooped out to form “Boston Kreme Brulee.”

He's got his standards, though: his fast-food can’t be augmented with outside ingredients except to garnish, like a lemon peel.
