The Worlds Most Expensive Curry
If you’re feeling hungry in London and have a couple of thousand pounds (a little over 3,000 US dollars) of spare cash in your pocket, you can drop by the Bombay Brasserie (in Kensington) and sample their new curry dish, the “Samundari Khazana”.
That’s right, this special curry sells for two thousand pounds!!!
It’s a seafood type curry and the ingredients include crab, white truffle, Beluga caviar, quails’ eggs, sea snails, abalone and lobster coated in edible gold leaf (yes, gold leaf!!). The seafood and fish are marinated in chilli and tamarind paste and the curry is presented on a bed of saffron rice. You even get a glass of fine champagne with the curry. There’s no mention of poppadoms or roti but you can probably get some if you ask.
This really expensive curry has been created to celebrate the launch of the DVD of Slumdog Millionaire. But it’s doubtful whether any of the slum dwellers from Mumbai will be stopping by to ask for this extraordinarily expensive dish.
