The Hundred Foot Journey..cordon Bleu Film

[ethandron]

Just been reading about this film, due out on 5th September, which might appeal to any foodies out there, starring Helen Mirren and food, what more could you ask??
Have put it on my 'definitely go and see it' list.

I've just looked it up and it looks really good!

It's ages since I've been to the cinema, I might take myself off one afternoon!

[ethandron]

Eccles, have I dreamt it, or have i read it somewhere on here that you're cordon bleu trained? I know you're extremely knowledgeable and imaginative with food.
When I read about the film it prompted me to look up cordon bleu on wiki, very interesting.

'Tis true....Cordon Bleu trained and (modest cough) was top student!

All that training and yet I had to go to a neighbour last night to get them to open a tin of crab meat! A trip to the kitchen shop is in order......

that looks good, i fancy seeing that

[ethandron]

Gosh, good on you :) At the London one or abroad?
What did you do with all that training? Have you taught? (ignore me if I'm being too nosey, I'm not too keen on giving too much info here myself)

[EcclesCake]

Eth, I'll tell you everything over a tray of stinky nachos and a bucket of popcorn at the flicks ;-)

Actually, I've just remembered when I went to see Bridget Jones my friend and I bought some smoked salmon canapés and dinky bottles of fizz to enjoy during the film. Much more civilised and appropriate....although maybe a samosa in this case!

[ethandron]

A bottle of wine at one of those lunch places you mentioned and it's a date ;)

[EcclesCake]

If you get the pork scratching a I'll get the wine Eth!
