What a waste: Chef creates most expensive pie
From Manchester Evening News:
A CHEF has baked the world's most expensive pie costing more than £1,000 a slice, it was revealed today.
The traditional steak and mushroom ingredients have been replaced by a £500 beef fillet, Chinese mushrooms worth more than £2,000 and truffles.
The recipe includes two bottles of 1982 Chateau Mouton Rothschild red wine costing more than £4,000 and the pie comes topped with gold leaf.
I could think of better things to do with £1,000 than buy a slice of pie. Like maybe buying a ticket to somewhere in Europe and sampling the fare over there?
