Off Topic The cooking thread….

Diced?

Hunters chicken for me is chicken sliced open, stuffed with cheese, wrapped in bacon and cooked in bbq sauce.

 

I asked this question a while back, no response. I ordered some anyway and had my first one tonight, absolutely delicious. This is the chicken, bacon, leek and tarragon, not a great photo but it really was good, not too dry, plenty of filling and good pastry all round it, a proper pie. If you like pies you should try them.
I'm not on a retainer btw...

 

love a bit of gizzard with aorta

 

I made a handmade Yorkshire Turkey pie , with leeks sauce a bit of mustard , cost me about £2 just after Xmas - get your Delia book out and have a go you idlers !!

 

I'm wavering on ordering that.


But I need to know what type of bun it is?


It's a deal-breaker.

 

Clearly they mean bread cake ernie

 

Go on get it ordered.

But if the bun turns out to be a bread cake, send it back. It's not a bun unless it has icing sugar on top. (preferably pink)

Went for breakfast in Thieving Harry’s today
Lived up to its name
Gash absolute gash
Full English And served in a bowl ffs
Avoid

 

Thought gash meant great these days?

 

Breakfast of kings, FACT

 

Pineapple?

 

I’d have eaten it Ernie cos it woulda been better than the breakfast 14 quid for a full English and three quid for a thimble full of coffee
Ridiculous

 

Been to this one, pretty good.

 

£14! That does sound a lot...
