Canape of the Week: Mini baked potatoes


Canapé: Mini baked potatoes with sour cream and caviar
Drank: Champagne
Where: Haymarket Hotel

I still rejoice the day when the Atkins’ diet died and we were allowed to serve carbs.

The mini-versions of big food school of canapé is still very much out in force but is it worth giving everything the classic the “Honey I Shrunk The Kids” treatment? A chip and a fin of fish in a corner of newspaper is over-rated, over done, and to be fair will just send you straight to the chippy over the road on the way home. But baked potato, hmm now this was something new, and those stodgy complex carbs were very much welcome by this point, my fourth glass of champagne (no the free novelty has just intensified in Le Crunch). Caviar changed the direction of it heading dangerously comfort food and sent me chasing after the canapé waiter in a most ungraceful manner.
