# The man is mental.


Delightful, a genius, but utterly, utterly, mental.

De-RIS

# It was fantastic.
But mental.

Although I think I've made the latter pont already...

# This^^^^
It does annoy me a bit when people go, "But you can't make any of his food"

Well no, that is the point!

# But you can
You can buy The Big Fat Duck cookbook from his website, (it's £300). His series 'In search of perfection' was all recipies you could do at home. Even the bits that needed a vacuum.

# Well yeah, I guess.
But not the freeze drying of things can you?

# Might have been,
might have been. They weren't easy recipies, but he did try and use stuff you might actually have in your home.

Or shed.

*can't remember*

# Hahahaha! NO!
I purchased said book for TLH for Christmas there's no way that a sane person could cook from it. It's a beautifully presented delve into the mans brayne so it doesn't really matter but it's not really a cook book.

Admit it, you just don't have a double-inverted runcible spork in your cutlery drawer, do you?

# Aww I missed it
he's a food scientist I read about him in an interview in The Metro you'd think most people would not even attempt to eat fermented shark - but he did and it cause a 'violent reaction' - he doesn't say what violent reaction but I image it involved a diver, a helicopter, and a bridge.

# I was watching an interview
with him yesterday on Paul O'Grady and I felt really bad for him. A few people have become ill after eating at his restaurant, and they have been doing tests on absolutely everything in the restaurant but to no avail.

He, off his own back, closed the restaurant and looked like he was about to burst into tears yesterday :(

# That Mock Turtle Soup looked outstanding.
It made me laugh when he was on the Absinthe and came out with some pissed bollocks about giraffes. Absinthe is fucking awful and the hangovers it produces are spectacular.
(I helped save b3ta! Smallbrainfield, Wed 4 Mar 2009, 12:23, archived)
# I'm not surprised he had to douse the absinthe with about a million other fruit to make it palatable...
Absinthe is one of the rankest tastes in the universe.

Bar round the corner from here does a 'Mad Cow' - Absinthe and Red Bull. Dear lord...

# I thought everything was great, really messed with your mind
But then he made the dessert, how much of a let-down was that? I mean, jelly and cream, which he thought was crazy because he added absinthe...

# Yes, I quite liked the cream idea.
It would be nice to try that with some high quality ice cream.

The "ejaculating" cake they keep showing in the previews looks like it will be a really crazy idea.
