OK, THIS has got to be one of the WEIRDEST promotions for a horror related DVD release I've ever seen, but it seems that the folk behind the release of "The Walking Dead : Series 2" have got togethor with some caterer to produce some rather "unique" dishes consisting of brains and offal, which will be given away free to followers of the official "Walking Dead Series 2" UK Facebook page, which they'll be dishing up around London.
Anyway, from the press release...
The booming London street food scene will face a new challenger to the taste
crown this week as the first mobile gastronomers to offer a menu made up
entirely of brains and offal roll into town.
Certain to cater to the tastes
of customers both dead and alive who have a penchant for the innermost of body
parts, The Gory Gourmet was created to celebrate next week’s release of zombie
thriller series The Walking Dead Season 2, which arrives on DVD and
Blu-ray on Monday 27th August.
The delectable delicacies on
offer will utilise meaty morsels that are all too often overlooked with a
tantalising menu devised and developed by street food king, chef Mark Jankel.
Formerly of Notting Hill Brasserie and now running the wildly successful mobile
food company Street Kitchen, Mark will work his magic to freshly prepare the
food on site.
The menu comprises three
delicious brain dishes with some offally good sides, all using responsibly
sourced British ingredients …
The
Menu:
Big Brain Burger
Brain burger with smoked mustard mayo, lettuce and cheese in a sesame seed bun
Crispy Brain Dippers
Crispy chunks of brain with barbecue sauce
Brain Salad Wrap
Crispy chunks of brain with wild rocket and tarragon mayo
Sides:
Feet and Thyroid Nuggets
Nuggets of pig’s feet and cow thyroid with herb mayo
Skewered Hearts
Grilled beef heart skewers with horseradish mayo
On Wednesday 22nd August, The Gory Gourmet will park up at world-renowned Camden Lock Market, just inside the entrance to Camden Lock Place, and will give away free servings of the dishes on offer to the lucky customers who are first in the lunchtime queue from 12.30pm.
On Thursday 23rd, it will move on to a Lower Marsh Market, Waterloo for another lunchtime serving up the dishes to hungry Londoners, again on a first-come-first served basis. Potential customers will be able to track the trailer’s progress by visiting facebook.com/TheWalkingDeadUK and will also be asked to check in to the Facebook Location: The Gory Gourmet – before redeeming their free meal.
Further locations will be confirmed over the coming weeks.
