Gone are the days when just an old blanket, a bottle of wine and some sandwiches were acceptable as picnic fodder. These days in our never ending quest for luxury sensations a luxury picnic basket is a must have, so thank goodness Moet & Chandon have decided to re-invent the traditional picnic basket with a limited edition gold leather picnic tote bag. Yipee! Picnics will never be the same again. For a mere $1,500 the bag is lined with pink silk and holds all the essential ingredients for a summer soirée, including a magnum of Moët & Chandon Rosé Impérial, four tulip flutes, and two lacquered picnic boxes filled with an assortment of savoury and sweet treats. Think mini lobster wraps, smoked salmon mousse, pink chocolate-dipped strawberries and pink truffles, all created by executive chef Mark Strausman of Fred’s exclusively for Barneys New York.
For People with an APPETITE for LIFE!
Welcome to THE MAIN INGREDIENT a place where Food News, Food Politics, Food Culture, Food Fashion & Food Humour meet. Each week you can preview topical foodie matter from my 'Gourmet Lifestyle' radio show called (wait for it) THE MAIN INGREDIENT. Food for the belly & the brain, I hope you'll enjoy the journey with me.
