The Menu with Joe McNamee

The Menu has found an ideal leisure pursuit, Smorgasboard, a board game to sate competitive instincts and epicurean appetites. Created by Richard Kelly and Maggie Leonard, players assume the guise of aspiring chefs graduating from ‘Rick’s culinary academy’ with fun questions and challenges. Smorgasboard requires philanthropists to stump up on crowd-funding website www.fundit.ie to get into production — pledge €10 to €500 in return for varying rewards. Further info www.smorgasboard.ie
