TOTALLY AGREE - that dish there is probaby the one I miss the most living abroad... Luckily I'm not too far away and come "home" generally once / year so get my fill in a few short days
My friend took me there for a belated 50th dinner. It seemed like sacrilege to go there for fish & chips, when they do so many amazing dishes, but I was conscious of the cost. I have to say it was the best I’ve had, anywhere.
You're meant to put the butter under the skin. As soon as that goes in the hot oven, it'll fall straight off!
Tough times Bonkers t D. I may join you in food penury by having a plain omelette & nothing else this evening.
I started this thread many moons ago out of a feeling of exuberant happiness at the prospect of a big, fat Aberdeen Angus moo-cow. But now...stop the birds from singing, suppress the V2 roar, peel me from my leathers and sit me in the straight back, tilting high chair. I have come full circle from that lovely steak dinner back in those hazy, lazy halcyon days. May I express my thanks and appreciation to all those fellow gastronauts and bon-viveurs out there who took the time to post a truly tremendous and multifarious cornucopia of orgasmic deliciousness. However, as a proud trencherman I have fallen from the hallowed halls of Bacchus and feel, as a mark of respect and and as a final Hussar (!) to unfettered gluttony and a fuck it attitude to "you should know better" we should put it out of it's misery. Proof positive that healthy eating under the Saw-Bones instructions may not make you live longer it just makes it feel that way as you blankly contemplate yet another low carb, low salt, low sugar, low fat, high fiber, gluten free quinoa feast. Salad - FFS, in winter as well. The Matrix truly has a perverse sense of humour. Next I'll be buying a trike and wearing Velcro shoes and commenting to youngsters how, "beige is a much underrated colour"! Bah humbug.
Isn't that what a salad is? All the shite you used to feed into the muncher now has priority and pride of place on the old plate.
Chapeau. The forum deserves some kind of Oscar’s ceremony after 4 years plus don’t you think? Scruffiest dinner award etc?
At the very least BtD deserves a lifetime subscription to Vegan Weakly (see what I did there?) or Plant Based Monthly. Delivered in a soy based sleeve; edible of course.
