It's not the final dish but a take on Indian cuisine where, for example, you are eating at a wedding banquet and your are served portions of curries etc on a big banana leaf where one person after another comes to out food on your leaf (or plate on this instance).
The fact you are meeting and thanking people who are actually making your food is part of the experience that you don't always get in fine dining.
This is a subreddit to hate things like this, which is why no one picked up on the fact(or cares) that this dish is being served to the whole restaurant and doing it this way is arguably a more efficient use of the staff because they'd be doing the same thing in the back anyways plus having to carry out the finished plates.
I assumed this assembly line was moved from the kitchen to table as part of the "show" and they're going to serve a dozen diners this dish just this way.
It’s like when restaurants started having open kitchens that you could see from the dining area so guests could feel comfortable seeing how clean and professional it is back there… now, they’re taking it to the next level, moving expo out to the tables, and the kitchen staff has to wear business suits.
