Besides this makes me recall a Royal Society lunch served at a discussion re bio-diversity. On the menu? Cod. I rest my case :-) Harini:

@Lekhni - i only understood ’sweet potato’ in the entire menu .. and of course the stuff after the 6th course… but it does seem like a lot of rich food for some fairly elderly men :)

@vrisha - i often wonder about why they need to get away for this little junket… is there a point … and would they really miss too much if they fall asleep :)

This menu makes words like "Excessive" or "extravagant" seem positively mild. It's hard to feel sympathetic about the food crisis when your stomach is groaning over too much food. I hope they all got indigestion :P Wow. This menu makes words like “Excessive” or “extravagant” seem positively mild.
