We all have different tastes when it comes to food time.....

Now myself i live on food that you in the uk will pay through the nose for, from take-aways and resturants etc...

How-ever i have just taken delivery of a nice oven imported from Germany..(i know an oven ,but a bit of a novelty here)...

I have been out and purchased a duck, a full duck, which i then had to duly lob it's head of..(it was already dead though)

So tonight i'm having duck (in oyster sauce), with roast tatties, and veg......and this is a novel thing as i havn't had roasties for a long long time...


But when it comes to scran time what do you prefer?

Are you a traditional English food eater, maybe fish and chips on a Friday..Sunday lunch.

Are you adventurous when it comes to the cullinery delights?

Or do you mix and match it all in?

Do you do the hottest curry available after a few pints and then regret it next day?

Basically, what is you taste buds preference?








Well it is quiet....

I love Turkish, Moroccan and Lebanese foods. The spices are immense. I've also discovered Tapas recently....

Are you keeping cool in the heat mate?
 
I've got to say that I love all kinds of food and love trying different things...if I was pushed, I would have to say that Indian food is probably my favourite...
 
I had a steak last night in a restaurant called hawksmoor in London. Any meat lovers in London get yourself there, one of the best I've ever had & the service was second to none.
 
Has to be steak for me with a pepper sauce. Also like mine cremated. Not one of these where its wiped thru the pan and served rare where a good vet could probably bring it back to life.
 
I once had snake-wine and fried mice when I was drunk in Vietnam, it tasted much better than a Kebab but not as good as an Ibbitson's Pork Sandwich, that has to be the best food ever.

Believe me, sometimes egg and chips sounds good to me.............................ok i'd skip the red sauce (unless it's sweet chill).....


By the wat, anyone following the thread, my roast duck with roasties and veg went down a treat, all was demolished, including the feet which were left on...

and the head has been kept for them to fry up.....which i will abstain from.
