An Offer for Robert De Niro
Madrid Fusion describes itself as “the world’s premier global gastronomy congress”. For its 2021 edition, the people behind it have put out a public “offer” to Robert De Niro, to be part of the advertising campaign. But instead of a fee, they’re promising him an “upscale” tasting menu, cooked by five top chefs who have over 20 Michelin stars between them. In their words:
Like Capone you teach us that “You can get much further with a kind Word and a gun than with a kind word alone” We offer you a kind word and a 23 star menu.
They also put out a tweet to Ryan Reynolds:
Ryan, if Robert says no, you can even put an ad in our ad. And enjoy a great meal too.
