It's World War Three: the World Economic Forum (25th-29th) in Davos coincides with Gourmet Voice in Cannes (26th-29th). Shocking and terrible global planning and a deliberate attempt by world leaders to undermine great cooking. And I would have thought that the services of the key players at the latter would have been imperative at the former.
And... they both have weblogs. Davos Weblog and Cannes Gourmet Voice. The Davos blog is better, though. But I'll be reading Mike Rake's FT-sponsored weblog about Davos. Mr. Rake has a quick wit and a desire to improve the globe: "I go to Davos every year in order to gauge the mood of the key players whose decisions shape the lives of every person on the planet." (Except the top chefs, it would appear).
But, as we suspected, there is no Michelin-starred food in Davos: "After a busy day...I’m off to recover in the best restaurant in Klosters, the neighbouring ski resort." Cannes would be better, I'm sure.
