The Naked Chef posted the menu for dinner at 10 Downing Street for the G-20 Summit on his blog:Baked Scottish Salmon with Seashore Vegetables, Broad Beans, Herb Garden Salad, Mayonnaise and Wild Garlic-scented Irish Soda bread
Vegetarian option is Childwickbury Goat’s Cheese with Roast Shallots, Seashore Vegetables, Herb Green Salad and Wild Garlic-scented Irish Soda Bread (no mayo)
Slow-Roasted Shoulder of Welsh Lamb, very first of the season Jersey Royals, first of the season Asparagus and Wild St George Mushrooms. Mint Sauce and Gravy
Vegetarian option is Lovage & Potato Dumplings with first of the season Asparagus and Wild St George Mushrooms
Hot Bakewell Tart with Home-made Custard
And it all came out to 11 pounds per person (a little over $16 bucks). With local ingredients and vegetarian options. Not that I'd really want to go out and recreate it myself. It all sounds so...Britishy.
And the thing I'm most curious about: why is it that it was served only to the "leaders," but their spouses ate next door (presumably from a different menu)?
