Blunos opened his first restaurant Lettonie in Bristol in 1988. He earned two Michelin Guide stars at this restaurant, one in 1989 and the other 1991.
In 1997 he moved his restaurant to Bath. It was there where he had the honor of cooking for Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of Edinburgh when they visited Bath in 2002 for the Golden Jubilee tour. Short after that he closed his restaurant and started appearing on TV and doing consulting work for other restaurants.
In September 2010 Martin Blunos participated in the Frome Cheese Show and developed the world’s most expensive cheese sandwich. It contained cheddar cheese mixed with white truffles and sprinkled with edible gold dust. The sandwich cost £110.59.
Chef Blunos is a regular participant on Food Poker and a guest chef on Cooks. He has also appeared on Great Food Live, Food Uncut, Saturday Kitchen, The Supersizers Eat… and Iron Chef UK.
Interesting article but wow what an expensive sandwich
That is some sandwich. I once tried to find edible gold dust to use on a cake but couldn’t find a source at the time. Affording it may have been another story! )
Edible gold dust. I have heard of edible silver but this sounds good. I wonder if it could be made Kosher?
That’s a lot to pay for a grilled cheese…
No, don’t even think about adding gold to your diet!
sound interesting…
I am glad you found my post interesting. Thank you for reading it.
I doubt if he sold too many of those sandwiches in Frome! I think I`ll just stick with cheese!
I doubt it too. £110.59 is a lot of money for a sandwich
Wow
Yeah, that sandwich is pretty expensive!
Great post
Thank you Vidocka!

I am glad you found my post interesting Pamela. Thank you for reading it.
I’ll take an Albacore Tuna Melt over this any day
Me too. Tuna sandwiches are delicious. We don’t need edible gold dust on our sandwich, right?
Maybe it’s just me, but I think such a sandwich is nothing more than showing off. It doesn’t take much creativity to add gold leaf to a sandwich of cheese with truffles.
I agree with you Blue Sailor
Great post
Thank you Olga!
