On fine dining

There are apparently 4 restaurants in the UK that have 3 Michelin stars - 2 in London, 2 in Bray.

I dined at one last Friday - Alain Ducasse at the Dorchester. I had the tasting menu, because everything on it looked good and the chances were that I'd not get to try all those dishes any time soon.

Nom nom nom

(I note the Chinese meal we had in Tokyo was at a Michelin starred place. But not a 3-star one.)

(Eep! I've just seen what my meal cost - before wine. It makes the Rockpool look like a cheap eatery.)

any chance to eat at an Alain Ducasse joint should be taken at least once, and damn the cost.

There's some town in Spain (I think) that claims to have more Michelin stars per head of population than anywhere else on the planet.

I suspect this is nonsense. I don't know what the population of Bray is, but it ain't many to share six stars between.
