Maybe this should belong in the rant section but here goes.
I thought I'd check out Heston Blumenthal's Fat Duck restaurant as a surprise present, but it was me that got the surprise. So let the nonsense begin.
You get seven courses for the bargain price of £325 per person. Wine pairing wonderment seems reasonable at an additional £750 per person and there is a 12.5% surcharge on top. Total £1,209.37 per person.
I get it that ingredients like Kobe beef cost a lot of money so the cost of meals using it will be high. But Heston's dodged that one bless him with the following 'typical' Itinerary foods.
Cauliflower Risotto, Rhubarb Galette, Triple cooked Chips, Snail Porridge on a bed of peas.
First off you don't get a menu but an Itinerary as the menu changes every day. The itinerary is Heston's 'own story to act as a catalyst to help bring your childhood holiday memories to life'.
Could someone enlighten me why there is a four month waiting list to eat at the second best restaurant in the world. I'm just not getting it?
Someone from the 'Story teller team' will help guide you through 'the wine pairing wonderment.'
Cauliflower He hasn't even spelt it right.
Rhubarb
How much does a Sound cost FFS
Triple cooked Chips Couldn't eat all them could you?
A Lime grove.
Snail Porridge on a bed of peas.
