Right. If you were on the show, what would be your menu, and/or tactics for winning? I realise the £1000 isn't worth the effort with your exhorbitant daily rates, but just for the fun of it, indulge me.

Starter - Roasted Asparagus wrapped in Parma Ham, with a light sprinkle of Parmasan.
Main Course - Beef Wellington, served with dauphinoise potatoes. Beef Wellington would use a layer Champagne, Duck and Truffle Pate.
Dessert - Chocolate Terrine, ala Taillevent, served with Mint Anglais.
Hrm, seems I have taken my reply far too seriously. Therefore, in line with the other posts, I'd make sure the beef was rancid, the pate off and serve up the most disgusting red wine I could find, wait for everyone to throw up and label it up as 'Dogs Dinner'Comment

The average contestant would probably view this as the height of sophistication ...
Prawn Cocktail
Steak and chips
Black Forest Gateau
And, of course, no meal would be complete without a bottle of Blue Nun (or for the truely pretentious - Black Tower)
