In order to prolong the meal and to delay the inevitable very sad ending, we of course had a little cheese course. When she came with the cheese cart, I had to hold back from saying "one of each" and instead just said "one of each type." She recommended one of each (soft, hard, sheeps, blue, etc). I wish I was more of a cheese connoisseur and remembered what these were, but I don't. I'll work on it. I like cheese.

A little post-meal Earl Grey, complete with a little ceremony of washing the pot as it all came on a little slotted tray that you could just pour water onto. Fun!

The petit fours - violet tart and mandarin aerated chocolate.

And apple pie caramel "edible wrappers" - edible wrappers! I wish all wrappers were edible.

And that concludes my Fat Duck posts. By the time I've finally gotten around to posting these, Heston's come out with a new tasting menu. A lot of the same stuff, and a higher price tag, but possibly worth going back...
