In-boxes everywhere have been inundated with lists – dozens of lists that want to know what you have cooked, eaten or drunk and other non-culinary lists that are curious about your travels, the films you’ve seen, the men you’ve dated or how many times you’ve cheated on your partners and where. Not to be outdone, we drew up one of our own but changed the format a little – we don’t really want to know anything at all, we merely want to make a suggestion …. or rather, 111 suggestions. Many of these fruits are more common than you may think but for many you would need to travel some considerable distance. Enjoy.
We”ll supply brief descriptions of any of the fruit as well as their destinations on request and could even refer you to our travel agent should you decide to embark upon a voyage of culinary discovery.
