Don't get me wrong, I love my local deli, it has many wondrous epicurean delights. So many that I haven't even begun to taste them all. However, every time I go in there lately I have a little smile. You see, it's these pictures of food platters they've put up along the counter.
That's them strung down the line. I guess it's the ex chef in me but I look at these things and wonder who the hell would pay money for that. Have a closer look and you'll see what I mean.
Bless em, I mean they're trying to offer a new service, but your grandmother could make something like that. No your grandmother DOES make something like that. So nobody would pay for that right?.......... yeah think again, as I walk in there this afternoon a dude is walking out with 2 trays of something or other. I had to sigh inwardly, this town is never gonna rise up out of the 70's food wise is it. Never.
Asparagus Vol au Vents anyone?
