Snail Porridge, Mock Turtle Soup, Nitro-scrambled Egg and Bacon Ice Cream, “Sound of the sea”… As you might have guessed by now, Heston Blumenthal’s cooking is unique. His restaurant, The Fat Duck, is located in the English countryside just a few miles outside London in a building dating back 450 years with an updated minimalist décor. From a very young age, this “culinary alchemist” has had a modern approach to his cooking – the study of the physical phenomena that effect the taste and flavour of a dish – and he likes nothing better than to develop new possibilities including his current research into historic British gastronomy in a bid to recreate dishes inspired by the past. One of his multi-sensory creations is a seafood dish with a twist. For those who like creativity and imagination when they go out for a meal, this is definitely the place to go…
