Food talk on James Bond & Friends mission debrief
I was privilaged to be invited to talk about James Bond's food recently on a special 'mission debrief' edition of the legendary James Bond & Friends podcast, hosted by the good folk at MI6-hq.com.
Apple pie
Unlike James Bond, Commander Pedersen of the Manta, as featured in Thunderball, has a great appetite.
Quiche de cabinet
Something's not quite right about the quiche de cabinet that James Bond (Roger Moore) cooks in Stacey Sutton's kitchen in A View to a Kill.
Eggnog
As we approach Christmas, what better way to get into the spirit of the season than to watch On Her Majesty's Secret Service, accompanied by a glass of eggnog.
Key lime pie
In the novelisation of Licence to Kill, we learn something about James - he is rather partial to Key lime pie, regarding the dish as a wonderful palate cleanser.
On the trail of Goldfinger
During the summer, I went on an epic road-trip and retraced James Bond's route in pursuit of Goldfinger from Le Touquet on the north coast of France to Geneva in Switzerland, as described in Ian Fleming's 1959 novel.
Fried sole
Having narrowly escaped death on the beach near Dover, James Bond and Gala Brand head to a hotel for a restorative bite to eat, including fried soles.
Plum pudding
At Quarterdeck, M’s country home, Bond sits down to Christmas lunch and the plum pudding duly arrives 'flaming traditionally.'
A night at the Hotel Moderne
During their drive through France to Switzerland in the novel of Goldfinger, both James Bond and Auric Goldfinger stop overnight at Orléans. Goldfinger stays at the Arcades, a luxury hotel overlooking the Loire, but if Goldfinger had not stayed at there, Bond supposes that it would have been the Moderne.
