Yes, I should probably have put that in the title, it's very common for East-Asian (and especially Japanese) restaurants to put fake food on display so that customers know exactly what they're ordering. They have it custom-made and it can cost a little fortune. This craftman has mastered his art (and it shows when he cuts the cabbage in half).
There are also fake food kits you can purchase that will allow you to make your own fake dish.
I really hate the fact that people really went out there and made a fuss of how "this is how real good is made" and that "most of what we eat is fake" and used these wax model videos
1. Took me way too long to realize they were making fake food out of wax.
2. I thought it was a deep fryer at first, and when he stuck his hand in, I was like NO!
