              TOP French actor and restaurateur Gerard Depardieu has publicly
              proclaimed his love of English beef. 
            
            In an interview with French news magazine VSD, M Depardieu sings
              the praises of English-raised Angus beef. 
               
              In the interview he says: “Angus beef, how juicy! 
               
              “I remember having some in 1997 as I was working on a film
              in Southampton – a meat I specially love because of its juiciness
              and its taste.” 
               
              And in the same article Paris butcher Jean-Christophe Prosper,
              said: “The softness and flavour are unique and made the reputation
              of this breed. 
               
              “The marbling and the cream colour of the fat demonstrate
            an excellent ability for finishing.”
