I just found these details about Royal Ascot, happening this week
Royal Ascot is probably the world’s most famous race meeting with an extraordinary history and tradition which dates back to 1711. This traditional and exciting horse racing event offers the perfect platform for entertaining guests or treating a loved one!
The Parade Ring Restaurant – Prices from: £1,200pp + VAT, your package includes:

£1200 + VAT for one day?? That is roughly the same as my food shopping bill for a whole year.
I wonder how much food is left uneaten at the end of the day? and is it discarded?
Or maybe they take it to a Foodbank? [yeah, right, I wish]
I'll have two tickets please!! Blimey! x
