Taking pictures of food and uploading them to social-media sites like Instagram has become de rigeur for many smartphone users. That’s why Tel Aviv’s Carmel Winery teamed up with restaurant Catit to create what they call Foodography — a dining experience that gives patrons the tools needed to capture perfect Instagram-worthy images of their meals.
For $155, according to Buzzfeed, food is served on dishes designed by ceramic design artist Adi Nissani. The plates have beautiful backgrounds and a built-in stand for your phone.

One of these specialized plates, the 360, even spins in a complete circle, allowing you to capture your dinner at just the right angle. A food photographer is available for workshops.

Extravagant? Perhaps. But it’s bound to get you a ton of Instragram followers.
