Off Topic The Burly Arms

It was more about setting the scene for the anecdote. Some appropriate mood music.

 

I knew what you meant!

This always springs to mind when Fosse goes off on a nostalgia trip.

 

Had a couple of pints in an Italian place now for food.

 

Yeah bro, from my butchers

Traditional Cornish Pasty, so chuck steak, potato and swede.

Flaky pastry

Proper job.

 

do they still chuck a load of black pepper in it, fooking hate it where black pepper seems to get chucked in everything these days?

 

Little bit of black pepper, but not crazy amounts.

Had a massive black pepper malfunction last sunday having my roastie. The pepper grinder wasn't working, so I undid the nut a bit to try and get it to grind.

****in bottom fell off and launched a thousand peppercorns into my gravy ffs

 

Trip to The Cheesecake Guy tomorrow.

 

fooking hate the stuff, it's done as a substitute for salt, I'd rather have salt in it or put neither in and let people add their own.

 

Just back from a surf and I'm ****ing starving. Haven't done any shopping this week, so I'm raiding whatever I can from the freezer.

Dinner is gonna look like something I would have cooked in my 20's at 3am when I'm absolutely baked

 

I love a bit of black pepper, but I want to add my own.

I don't want some **** with a 3ft pepper mill hovering over me asking if I want pepper.

That's a choice I can make for myself

 

was just thinking, what's it like getting online food deliveries out your way, can you only get selected days, or they like built up areas, everyday 6am until midnight.

 

The thick crusts were created so that the miners who as you can imagine will have had dirty hands would use the thick crusts to hold the pasty, once the filling eaten, the crusts discarded

every day is a skool day when Spurlock about init

 

No idea mate.

I get most of my food from the markets I trade at, so veg, salad, meat, cheese, eggs etc. I go to Lidl to get canned and dried stuff.

I did try to get my old dear to set up a home delivery thing with Sainsburys, but she's so crap with technology that I just do her shopping for her.

 

The crimped part was designed for that, but yeah guessing that's what you mean by the crust.

They also used to make them with a savoury filling one end, and a sweet filling the other end.

Some entrepreneural dude needs to fix up and bring them back

 

Bedfordshire clanger that.

 

Yeah there's probably versions of that all over England going back through the years.

When blokes used to go to work and do jobs where they had to graft that was.

Not your Skinny macha latte frappe type of office worker.

 

I seem to remember the pasty shop at Sennen Cove doing that, a few back iirc

 

I've literally just driven back from there lol.

There's no dedicated pasty shop in the Cove anymore, but a couple of cafes sell them.

Best ones around here are from the Butchers and Farm shops.

 

Looking forward to spending six months down your ends.

Love a good pasty.

Not Ginsters!
