It had to happen. We are friends with a few hotel barge owners. These are very upmarket barges for 4 or 6 clients with all the razzmatazz that goes with this level of accommodation. Recently we were invited for a meal on one of these barges and the chef made a superb meal. His normal haunt is in Michelin Star restaurants in UK. He is currently doing a season on the French canals. We had planned to have the hotel barge owner over for a meal and the chef was not required that night so after a few glasses of excellent wine we invited him for a meal! Was that a good idea?
Gold chocolate filled with liquid chocolate, raspberry sorbet, caramelised mango and other bits. Yummy! As served at our visit to the hotel barge.
What do you cook for a chef who cooks in Michelin Star restaurants? Oh la la!! Well we decided to go for good old curry. It worked fine as these guys long for food like curries which they rarely make. This was followed by that well-known Indian desert, lemon meringue pie. And no I am not showing a photograph of a Goan Chicken with Aubergine and Dahl.
