Bond a gourmet?

 


“James Bond was not a gourmet. In England he lived on grilled soles, oeufs cocotte and cold roast beef with potato salad. But when travelling abroad, generally by himself, meals were a welcome break in the day, something to look forward to”


From On Her Majesty's Secret Service by Ian Fleming
