Rated as "the best restaurant in the world" (2005) and hoarder of 3 Michelin Stars... I've been wanting to go to the Fat Duck for a few years now... and reading Gourmet Chick's post about her meal there just concreted the fact that I absolutely want to go and eat there.
I know I've waxed lyrical about Heston Blumenthal before but I do think he's a genius! Even their restaurant website is playful!!
Here is a small excerpt from one of the episodes of Heston's Feasts that was shown on Channel 4. The man makes an edible chocolate river! This is from the Willy Wonka Episode - there was also edible wallpaper... and you can't tell me, you wouldn't be tempted by edible wallpaper!!!
I would absolutely positively eat the wallpaper! I loved Willy Wonka as a child, especially since my dad worked for a candy company!
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely go to Fat Duck, even if you only get the desserts ;)
Your did worked for a candy company!?! Did he get to bring home loads of candy??!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you can go to Fat Duck just for desert.. I think you pretty much have to commit the 100GBP for the tasting menu if you want to go!! :D
