How the hell do you steal the menu?? The ones Ive been to are usually in a leather bound book style and are always swiftly taken away by the waiter/tress

I don't, I ask for the menu to be signed by the chef and often as well as giving me the nice booklet, I get to meet the chef too.

I've got a collection of one leather-bound menu, purloined from a Chinese restaurant in Penrith during the 1970s when I was a student.

Because I nicked it, I didn't ask the chef to sign it.

I've sometimes felt a bit guilty about it though.

Had a stamp collection as a kid, Magic The Gathering as a teen, but all my geekiness is focused on coding really these days. I don't really have an interest in owning stuff I don't use.

hmm what a great idea.

Though it kinda helps, I used to be one. Getting the menu signed is a trade thing.

Nicest chef I met was Glynn Purnell. Most starstruck was with Alain Roux.
Got 3 free courses at one place in Rotterdam as the chef had done a stagier at the same place as me.
