Two items of food-related news (I don’t post anything like enough food news items here):
- world’s most expensive sandwich goes on sale. I like the sound of this. Of course, it’s a splendid publicity stunt and well done to Selfridges for coming up with it, but I would like one. Or two.
- we’ve just booked to go to Preuvenemint, (one of?) the largest food fairs in the Netherlands. This strikes me as an excellent plan – food and Maastricht in one go – hurrah! Sadly, we can’t find a decent hotel in the city – it seems that they are either all booked up or have trebled their prices in anticipation of the crowds (or both) – so we’re staying at a lovely auberge across the border in Belgium.
Meh. What a silly thing to do… seriously, I’m all for high quality food but £85 for a sandwich? Does that include someone to feed it to me, maybe help me digest it, pass it and wipe my arse as well??
Sorry but… Meh.
