Is that a euphemism?

Don't cats like to eat ducks (like duck cat food, stuff you can buy in the pet store)?

HEY! The Fat Duck is about 2 miles from my house. In fact I almost drive past it to work every day, never been in though.

What a meal I had. Went for the tasting menu and it totally blew me away.
Starts off with a sorbet to cleanse the pallet. A bowl of liquid Nitrogen is wheeled out and they put the sorbet thingy in it and shuffle it around in the nitrogen for a few seconds, whack it on your plate and you pick it up with your fingers and eat it.
I could go on but there is just too much to tell.
The only part I didn't enjoy the taste of was parsnip cereal, I HATE parsnips but gave it a go anyway but just don't like the taste.
Well worth the money, well worth the trek to the other end of the country for.
Will upload photos in a bit.
EDIT. And Bradley from Eastenders was on the table next to us. Just thought i'd add that useless info in too.

Well it's commonly known that any kind of experiment including liquid nitrogen will have "wow" effect.
Last week, we were doing experiments with liquid nitrogen in uni, and altho we all know what's working, and how it's done, that didn't stop us from having that "ice frosting" look in our eyes 
"Quantum mechanics is actually, contrary to it's reputation, unbeliveably simple, once you take the physics out."
