Today's Wall Street Journal:
It is clear Mr. Chirac doesn't know much about food, said Rick Stein, a celebrated British chef who cooked a birthday dinner for the French president at Mr. Blair's residence at 10 Downing Street in November 2001. On the menu was Cornish lobster salad with lemon dressing and roast salt marsh lamb. Mr. Stein can't forgive Mr. Chirac for turning down the 1985 Chateau Latour, preferring instead to wash his meal down with Becks.
"Anybody that drinks beer through a banquet like I cooked for him you can't really take seriously when he talks about good food," Mr. Stein said yesterday.
