LONDON — Say goodbye to time spent mulling over the menu; tasting plates are the future, and the future is now.

Foodie freaks Bompas and Parr have teamed up with Bespoke Offers to create The 200 Club, the world’s longest ever tasting menu hosted at The Factory on Tanner Street, Bermondsy. Prepared by chefs from the likes of Story, Chiltern Firehouse and Claridge’s, the non-stop dining experience will last a total of 86,400 seconds and include 200 courses – from Breakfast to ‘Drunchies’ – broken down into 10 meals punctuated by 7 types of digestive aids to ensure tasters keep on tastin’.

For the small fee of £2,000 ($3,140) two lucky eaters will have the chance to try all 200 of the courses starting at 8am on 3 September and ending at the same time the next day. Those with a slightly smaller stomach (and smaller pocket) have the option of purchasing a ticket to try 20 of the courses costing either £49 or £99 depending on sitting time.

Additionally, all plates are colour-coded in homage to Emperor Nero’s monochrome meals, so they’re as aesthetically pleasing as they are filling. Just take a look for yourself.
