You can't put a price on health Miss B, and the only person bursting through your door is that stalker you keep in the garden. Poor fuckers probably freezing out there, invite him into your warm, curtainless home.
Health?! You're a pair of foodies, you and TTT :D (I'm a shameless foodie so I'm not judging ya)

Hey TTT - this one's for you [link]

You may mock, O Griffon, but behind one of the thickest bushes were some takeaway wrappings and a couple of soda cans and stuff this morning. Mind you, to give a balanced view of this, I should add that I've probably nosed around behind that bush no more than twice since we moved here. Could have been there for 4 months. But I reckon at least the paper wrappings would fall apart pretty quickly in the rain. Anyway. Who cares? I saw my fairy for a very teeny tiny sample taste of his new harvest. Not bad. Ferocious munchies. I'm going to foodgawker.com ...

I ent had sushi in a long long time. Are you saying you've never eaten fish and chips? Battered deep friend fish is a hell of a lot closer to whitebait than crab sticks given that they are essentially the same thing just one is a big fihs one a small fish.

Um, cod and haddock are different fish.... Like salmon and shark.

And yes, whitebait i a small fish that get' battered, tempuraed, breaded, and then fried.

I used to do the butchery for the Fat Duck. All i really think about it is 1. he is a gimmick and 2. he buys the exactly the same meat as most well-to-do £20 a course resteraunts/gastropubs, I'm not one for paying an extra £130 because it came with bacon flavour porridge on the side and a fancy television personality doing the prep in the kitchen. I'll take the £20 lamb shank and mash with gravy in the pub with a pint any day :) I have the majority of the London Michelin star resteraunts cook books and handful more from various world class chefs, most of the recipes are pretty cack, half of them seem to add fancy ingredients purely so it can have fancy ingredients, doesn't actually do anything for the dish.
Heston doesn't actually cook at The Fat Duck, he has 15 chefs working there for him. It has a £2.000.000 a year turnover and doesn't break even, it makes a loss!


My dad is a Chef of over 30 years who trained at The Box Tree with Marco Pierre White. My good friend Sam Wilson is the dessert chef for the Gordon Ramsey restaurant
at Claridge's Hotel, London.
The finest meal I have ever eaten, hands down was from the Alain Ducasse restaurant at The Dorchester Hotel, London.
You don't earn 3 stars for having fancy ingredients just for the sake of it. Having 3 stars means exactly what it should, you have achieved culinary perfection. This is why there are only four restaurants in England with 3 stars (The Fat Duck, The Waterside, Claridge's and The Dorchester), Marco Pierre White gave his back.


I'm a Master Bartender myself, I'm 32 and I've been in the industry seventeen years (I started waiting silver service tables at 15 years old). I've just spent the last seven years training staff for Europe's largest casino chain. I specialise in Molecular Mixology (what Heston does but with booze) and I'm the fastest, working Bartender in the north of England.
I can do amazing things with drinks and take great pride in my chosen field but I know there are MANY more Bartenders all over the world that are far better than I'll ever be, I'm good but I'm no Eben Freeman!

I would happily pay £250 a head for a meal and an evening I will never forget, no matter how many cookbooks and recipes somebody has they'll never be able to cook those recipes like a 3 star chef and THAT is what you pay for.

To each their own mate, i've eaten far better from far lesser chefs.
