San Francisco - (AFP) - Dog owners in the American city of San Francisco can take their animals, if they are fed up with the food designated for them, to a sweet shop where they eat what is delicious and delicious, with a menu price of $75.

The owner of the "Dogue" sweets shop, Chef Rahmi Masarwa, receives all kinds of dogs that come to enjoy the treats he prepares for them.

This American chef received training in the origins of French cuisine in a famous restaurant in the San Francisco Bay Area, and he recently launched his own shop for dogs, in which he offers these animals a variety of sweets of all kinds, so they are confused about which one to choose.

For the most discerning palate, dogs can choose between the Petit Gateau, made with minced chicken topped with a layer of carefully sculpted confectionery cream, and the Golden Paste, a mini pie that combines organic coconut and turmeric with A thin layer of honey gelatin.

"The visual is very important," Masarwa told AFP. "I've always strived to design dog food in a way that makes me want to eat it myself," he added.

Masarwe set his sights on the idea of opening this new restaurant based on the whims of one of his dogs, an English mastiff. And when the animal refused to eat its own artificial food, the chef, who disliked traditional molds, set out to use his knowledge and skill to prepare small dishes for him with fresh, seasonal ingredients.

The chef specializing in dogs, through his new shop, aspires to be inspired by the traditional French cuisine to which he belongs, and at the same time to be what he prepares as a tribute to the "English Mastiffs" that he keeps with his wife.

During the week, $4.95 candy bars and dogeccinos (about the weight of a cappuccino) covered in cream and mixed with spirulina or charcoal are sold. Dog owners can also recommend to their animals ready-made food lists specially prepared for each of them, according to what you detail.

On Sundays, the shop turns into a restaurant in every sense of the word, with a menu consisting of appetizers, main course, and desserts for $75.

This price did not dissuade Joe Lake, who came with his elegant dog "MJ", which has a hair half dyed in pink.
"It's been a pretty good experience so far," Lake said. He said his dog "loves the food and appreciates the attention she gets" at the restaurant.

But the shop was not only admired, but also subject to criticism. Some of the users of social networks saw it as one of the symptoms of a city that was touched by madness due to the money of the neighboring Silicon Valley, which produced a reality that extends from manifestations of banality and waste to the suffering of homelessness and drug addiction in its streets.

As for Masarweh, he focuses his efforts on making his four-legged customers happy.

He said that dogs do not pretend to be what they are not, and do not show the opposite of what they have, "if they like (food) they eat it with appetite, and if they do not like it, they will not eat it, and nothing can be done about it."
