Superbowl!!!

It's not exactly the usual sort of world food post we go in for but Superbowl is as much about the unique food traditions as it is about the football. Have you seen the episode of How I Meet Your Mother where they get chicken wings to watch the match a day late? It's like having turkey on Christmas day. It's a cultural food event and the second largest amount of food in one day is consumed on Superbowl Sunday, so I feel it's worthy of a post.

So on that note, I can't help but post about the legendary night Boy and I had last night with our good friends Drewsie and Palmerston. We watched Saints win the Superbowl in the most spectacular fashion at Bodeans in Clapham.

We got tickets ages before and it was advertised as a buffet. Not so on the night. Not very impressed, we made rumbling noises about complaining afterwards and accusing them of false advertising. However after starters of nachos and chicken wings and mains of ribs, bbq chicken, pulled pork, beans and coleslaw we left groaning under the weight of our new BBQ babies.

Umm, chicken wings - boy has a gaint aversion to celery and wouldn't eat the wings that had even touched it...

A brilliant night and a brilliant atmosphere. I'm going to be there next year.
