the £111 sandwich

"What you see above is the world’s most expensive cheese sandwich created by celebrity chef Martin Blunos. The Michelin-starred chef has handcrafted the £111 cheese sandwich using cheddar blended with expensive white truffles. The snack, unveiled at the Frome cheese show in Somerset, comes dressed with 100-year-old balsamic vinegar and £5 sourdough bread. The snack is served with gold dust and £92 worth of truffles. The sourdough bread is dressed with extra virgin olive, layered cheese, slices of quail’s egg, heirloom black tomato, epicure apple and fresh figs. For the special white truffle blend, Blunos worked closely with experienced cheese makers at local west country producer Pilgrim’s Choice."
