An anonymous bidder in Hong Kong has snapped up what is expected to be the most expensive white truffle ever, paying 125,000 euros at auction for a 1.5 kilogramme whopper, sponsors said.
主办单位指出，香港的匿名出价人抢得预料是史上最贵的白松露，他在拍卖场上，以12万5千欧元（台币526万余元 )买下一个1.5公斤的巨大松露。
It was the second year in a row that a buyer from the southern Chinese city had snapped up the top item at the annual Worldwide Alba White Truffle Auction held in northern Italy.
这是这座来自中国南方的都市，在意大利北部举行的世界白松露年度拍卖会上，连续第2年抢得顶级标的物。
Last year a consortium of investors paid 95,000 euros for a 1.2 kilogramme fungus. The Guinness Book of Records later confirmed it as the most valuable truffle bought at auction.
去年投资客集资9万5千欧元（台币4百万余元 )，买下这种1.2公斤的真菌植物。金氏世界纪录之后确认它是在拍卖中，最贵重的松露。
The winner this year outbid buyers from Paris, London and Grizane, in Italy, where the auction, now in its eighth year, is held.
今年的赢家出价胜过来自巴黎、伦敦与（克罗埃西亚 )格利桑的买家，在拍卖举办国意大利，如今是第8年举行。
As happened last year, the truffle will be cooked by chefs at Hong Kong’s Ritz-Carlton Hotel, which sponsors the city’s annual bid, and served to diners at a charity dinner.
如同去年，这块松露将由赞助香港年度竞标的丽嘉酒店厨师料理，并在慈善晚宴上献给饕客。
