Say hello to the beautiful Multi Basket Picnic Basket, designed by Danish brand Menu. Compact and elegant, it’s heralded as “the ideal mobile device for all things delicious” — which, if you think about it, is kind of a hilarious way to describe a picnic basket…

The Multi Basket has a few neat picnic-like features: two air-tight containers on one side have bamboo lids that double as butter boards, and the basket comes with two cooling pads and a felt liner.

But let’s get real: as gorgeous as this piece is, I have a hard time accepting it as a functional picnic basket. It’s really a tray, and better suited to life as a pretty serving piece rather than a “mobile device” for an al fresco lunch. However, seeing as how it’s labeled as a picnic basket, I hereby grant it the title of the most beautiful picnic basket around!
