mussels can be extremely cheap actually from fishmonger or even fish section of supermarket sometimes a quid or so on offer- they are only expensive in restaurants because restauranteurs put a huuuuge mark up on them

Noooo.....don't tell everyone that mussels are good value as a treat! It'll be like lamb shank, used to be cheap until they became trendy!

Navarin of lamb again

I love the fact that they've got experts on talking about their different specialities :T

I was just thinking that and I think they'll have really benefitted from this - and they may even decided to go further with it :T
