Just how fabulous a foodie are you? Do you know your percebes from your periwinkles?

Put your money behind a new board game called Smörgasboard and you could find out. The game designers, Richard Kelly and Maggie Leonard, are almost halfway to reaching their target of €8,500 to put the culinary knowledge board game into production, and you can grab a slice of the action by pledging anything from €10 to €500 on the website fundit.ie. The objective of the game is to be the first team of chefs to graduate from Rick's Culinary Academy. "The losers do the dishes," Kelly and Leonard say.
