My advice, go to your nearest 1 star, or multiple rosette eatery and ask for a polite word with chef.

Yes - if you walk down the left hand side of the market (past Farmer Sharp's mutton lick ) right to the back, there is a lane on the right. There are a couple of stalls there that specialise in fungi. Admittedly I haven't bought any this year yet, but last year they most definitely had both perigord and alba for sale. Very good they were too!

Bit off topic, but just trying to work out, how much money would it cost, if
Cotty had truffles on toast as his 1 meal of the day. My calculator just broke.

He he he, by the way Cotty, you posted a pic on the TVR "S" forum the other day
with your old S series TVR. Is that you in the photo with it?
