A humorous quote & story from NPR

Someone once said (probably a Frenchman), that the British empire was built by Gentlemen traveling abroad in search of a good meal.

14 of the top 50 restaurants in the world, today, are in the U.K. The number 1 restaurant in the world, as voted by some organization or other, is in the U.K. "The Fat Duck" in the south east, beating out two time champ, The French Laundry in Napa, California. Who would have ever thought? I wonder what Zach has to say about this.

The French are a bunch of cowards anyway. Who wants snails??
