Entree - birthday style

Decided to get creative for a (belated) birthday dinner.

Entree of garlic shark bay prawns with confit chilli and balsamic reduction. Served with a 2006 Corton Grand Cru I've been cellaring since a visit to Burgundy a few years back.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

Nice dan, but I think you will find 2006 was a poor year in burgundy, they had a nasty frost that resulted in a below par vintage. -2 points.

Haha!!!!!!
