Fish and Chips, foodie style
I am starting work on a new chapter. Clovenhoof (our earth-bound Satan) is having a dinner party.
His own favourite food is Findus Crispy Pancakes, but he’s been persuaded, in part by his desire to impress a woman and also by his own inclination to show off, to take on the role of pretentious foodie.
Iain has written the synopsis, and mentioned that he found it rather challenging to take a ludicrous foodie menu idea that hasn’t actually been attempted by someone.
We’d welcome your ideas on this. Here are some areas to think about:
  • He’ll come across some frightening cookbooks when he goes looking in a second-hand bookshop.
  • He’ll want to source obscure ingredients.
  • He’ll create a menu so full of hyperbole and foreign words that nobody will know what they’re eating.
  • He’ll need power tools and other unlikely weaponry to perform his culinary works.
Please post your ideas in the comments, the more stupid the better!
