MancWanderer Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 And........why anyone would want to put gravy or curry sauce on a nice crispy fish straight out of the fryer is beyond me If it tastes bland it’s a shit chippy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably only had Sainsbury's before started using wholesalers. I'll give the Aldi one a try as bit more realistic price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent mix this week.https://www.hellofresh.co.uk/ I'd give this a go for two of you, saves us a fortune. The Mrs signed up for this, we're on the second week of it. Was sceptical before hand but have been well impressed with it. Would recommend to anyone. Really reasonably priced as well, as you say, especially with half price first week 👍 Helps with portion size also, as I'm always guilty of going back for seconds when cooked a pan full of something.

Youri McAnespie Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) My menopausally enraged mother rammed my little face onto a plate with a Goblin meat pudding on it after it was flat out refused like a horse at Beecher's Brook. It was the impression of the can bottom in it, looked like dogfood. I made a very sad Shepherd in the school Nativity play the same evening. 🙁 They sell that tinned bacon roll at the corner shop, I was served that fried as a kid and liked it - often thought about getting some. But I don't own a frying pan. Now that's food related snobbery. (Apologies to the italicscist).

We’ve long since established that gastronomy in these parts is a wild tapestry ranging from sensible, tasty sounding concoctions, all the way to dishes that would only be eaten by Double Y chromosome lunatics. Boiled parsnips is about par. Ive just had a load of TGI Friday branded chicken wings from Iceland. My excuse is that it was the choice of my lad for his birthday.

Bigtoe Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I love the Great North Pie company It was either a trip to Alty market or the cafe in Ambleside or online with a pricey deliver charge Found them on the deli counter at Booths at Christmas 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimron Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Back to original topic I'll chip in Belazu White Condimento, brilliant for salad dressings, mix it with extra virgin olive oil (about 1 condimento to 3 oil) and a pinch of mustard pepper, perhaps some black pepper also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little one always wants to go for her birthday. I always end up crying at the cost. They’re all shit those places: TGI, Frankie and Bettys; Chiquito; Coast to Coast. Theyre not shit because they’re not authentic. Ironically, when I’ve been to America the place is brimming with gaffs of their nature that serve platefuls of generic meats smothered in syrup. They’re shit because the food is rank and the prices lamentable. But kids like it and I like an easy life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
