He's so right about nouvelle cuisine
Went for an expensive meal yesterday with some friends at the Fisherman's Cot in a Devon village.
After checking they were not using square plates (a dead giveaway for poncey nouvelle cuisine), I ordered fish pie, only to find it was in a small pot, practically full of mussel _shells_, and came on a wooden board, with a small pile of salad next to it. I hardly touched the thing. What a waste of time and money. Why does anyone put up with this pretentious French crap?!

Thank God this mad cooking affliction hasn't affected most pubs in Devon - yet.
