This picture heralded the resurrection of the blog; it was taken during a "historic" meal at a country club near Jakarta airport.Many, may, many years ago - we're talking the 1980's here - when working in Britain, a terrific bunch of coaches used to band together every night after competitions for the purpose of culinary and nutritional research. When the bill was presented at the conclusion of the experiment, it always worked out at twenty-seven pounds fifty pence each. Always. Without fail. No matter what we'd eaten, no matter what we'd been drinking. It was uncanny.
The Jakarta meal bill was Rp394,735 which is S$57 which is twenty-seven pounds fifty pence. Uncanny. That was for three of us, eating like Kings, Emperors, Sultans and swimming coaches. I'll scan the bill and add it to the post when I'm near a scanner.
