While waiting for the doctor

I watched a reportage about the Irish rugby team who are staying at the Sofitel at Bordeaux Lac. They talked with the chef. Basically they triple the normal portions for these players, but reduce the fat.

So for a typical meal you'd get about 80 grams of pasta per person. They get 200 grams. You'd get a chicken portion. They get three. And also where you'd normally eat one main course, there are two.

"Ils mangent beaucoup. C'est des gros bébés." said the reporter.

The Canadians are at the Mercure, where Pat's brother and family stayed when they came to visit.
