 | If you can't taste what the fuss is about, you shouldn't be eating it.

 | R.R.Gill( 30s, Male, United Kingdom )I see where Felix is coming from – I can't see the fuss or taste the taste – but then again maybe that's my smoking habit spoiling it.

 | MissSushi( 30s, Female, London&Paris )A person who knows caviar, knows not to order it in a restaurant. Of course it will be overpriced (duh), and it's a little silly that this is the way you try and impress ‘the girls’ (and even sillier that mediocre caviar impresses them). Furthermore what you were served could have been Iranian Beluga, as in Russia it is indeed illegal (not that it doesn't happen anyway, but it won't get into a London restaurant, it goes straight to the tables of caviar lovers). In my opinion, little star, you have never had the fortune of trying the real deal (which is Beluga Molossol) and I find it ironic that you include caviar in your last meal yet you do not seem to appreciate it's heavenly taste.
