Eton mess: as eaten by the royal family

The royal wedding has proved a bonanza for the PR industry. The blog has received countless press releases on royal hair does; commemorative crockery and holiday deals based on the presumed location of the WillKat honeymoon.

My favourite was one which wanted to share the thoughts of a woman who cut the hair of Fergie when she got hitched. The release seems to have come from someone called Snooki, a name which is practically a blog entry in its own right.

Rather more pertinent is the latest promo from the Butchershop Bar and Grill in Glasgow. The Sauchiehall Street venue will be showing the wedding live but they will also be running a special Gordonstoun School inspired brunch menu.

It turns out that the owner, James Rusk, went to Gordonstoun, as did Prince Andrew, Prince Charles and Peter and Zara Philips.

The three-course brunch menu will feature dishes that James ate whilst at Gordonstoun, including kippers with scrambled egg, Balmoral chicken and Eton mess for £15.95 pp, available on Friday only, from 11am to 5pm.

The bar is also running a royal afternoon tea which was scribbled about in an earlier blog here.
