Did you purchase the mandoline slicer yet. I purchased probably the
one that you are talking about MIU FRANCE (made in China) Professional
Stainless Steel, at $39.99. (variety of blades, waffle blade and 4
julienne blades). I haven't unboxed it yet, but will in a few days.
Let me know if you've bought it yet and used it and how you like it.
I don't have anything on my "Meal List" to slice in the next few days
except a large Korean turnip :-)) and that could last the winter!
