The global engineer - [time out travel]

The 1960s have so much to answer for. Those were the days when Swiss roll was a hot dish, Elvis was still king, and someone, somewhere, had the idea that dinner was best served high up and spinning. Nearly 50 years on, Elvis has gone and Swiss roll??s gone sweet, but these brash symbols of technological showmanship are still at the top of their game. Diners still gaze down on an unfolding view and share a menu that will inevitably ?? wherever in the world it??s served ?? contain the 1960s staples of prawn cocktail, duck ?? l??orange and black forest gateau, finished off with an Irish coffee.
