The Nobel Prize Banquet 2008

Here's the menu for tonight's Nobel Prize Banquet:

Sole with Swedish shellfish, fennel and dill (with, very excitingly, oysterplant. Has anyone tried that?)

Fillet of veal, accompanied by seasonal vegetables and potato-thyme terrine (including a celery créme)

Poire Belle Hélène 2008 (But actually a much updated version, it sounded completely divine when the creator presented it. It has a chocolate-glazed almond crisp, a ginger and vanilla flavored pear, a dark chocolate ganache, ginger and pear preserves and vanilla ice cream.)


Did you know that if you're in Stockholm, you can always eat the latest Nobel menu at Stadshuskallaren? I never have, but it would be really nice. Additionally, if you're more than eight diners, you can choose a menu from *any* year. Pretty impressive! (You can see all the menus here.)
