The delicacy costs $75 and feeds three to five people. While it looks like mouth-watering roast ham with a brown color exterior, when cutting into slices, it’s red inside like rare steak. However, in fact, it is watermelon. /VCG Photo
Its convincing meat-like appearance has quickly garnered foodies’ attention online, and some have mixed feeling about this odd twist on watermelon. /VCG Photo
"Smoky, savory, salty, hot, and juicy, but it's still a watermelon." William Horowitz, the chef and the owner of the restaurant describes the flavor. He said the reason why it’s served in watermelon form is because the restaurant wants to offer more vegan and vegetarian options. /VCG Photo
