Designers do cheaper lines for fast fashion and some chefs are now getting into faster food. One of the world's best chefs wants to open a pizza place and now another, English chef Heston Blumenthal, famous for his molecular gastronomy stylings at The Fat Duck has had sucess with a menu for Little Chef, a chain of roadside restaurants in England.

The trial menu, launched at one restaurant in Blumenthal's hometown of Tyneside, has been so popular that the company is planning to roll it out to the chain's 175 restaurants. The Guardian linked to the PDF last November which describes dishes that span a range from standard diner fare like macaroni and cheese and hamburgers to fancier options like braised ox cheeks and coq au vin most for prices under £10.
