Still Waters Posted October 1, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 1, 2012 When going out for a gourmet meal, you might expect to dine on caviar, fillet steak or succulent sea bass. Now, however, you could turn up to a restaurant with two Michelin stars to be served that beloved British classic, bangers and mash - priced at a staggering £75. Olivier Limousin, head chef at L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon, has produced the world’s most expensive sausages and mash, featuring ‘deconstructed’ gourmet sausages served on a bed of pureed Desiree potatoes and butter, mixed with 10 grams of black truffle. http://www.dailymail...75-portion.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhantomFlanFlinger Posted October 1, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I prefer the look of the cheaper one but no doubt some will pay for it...they must have more money than sense... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Fluffs Posted October 1, 2012 #5 Share Posted October 1, 2012 My version of a gourmet meal would have to consist of atleast one small bird fried to perfection. My wallet shall never part with anything over £10 for any meal, let alone the £75 wanted for a tiny amount of meat and crushed potato. Aren't I a stingy gentleman?

Junior Chubb Posted October 1, 2012 #6 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Reminds me of adverts I see advertinsing for the collection of cars for scrap... Bangers for Cash. I bet the cars go for cheaper than this meal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithisco Posted October 1, 2012 #7 Share Posted October 1, 2012 "Deconstructed Iberica Sausages".. so Monsieur le Muppet has been to "Mas y Mas", bought half a kilo of Iberica Sausage (famous for its delicate flavour from their acorn diet), taken the skin off of it,boiled it in wine to remove the flavour, and stuck it on top of a pile of half - mashed potato (not forgetting the 10 grams of truffle). What a culinary disaster that must be just thinking of the flavours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior Chubb Posted October 4, 2012 #14 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) It is when it comes to bangers and mash!
