Favourite meal?

[Pat Vegas]

Your mum etc.

I used to think it was a Roast dinner but I've gone off them a bit.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

a Saturday lunchtime, sitting at the oyster bar at J Sheekey.

To start, half a dozen Natives and a bottle of Pol Roger Brut.

The main course, a whole north Atlantic lobster, grilled with garlic butter. Shoestring fries and a green salad. A bottle of Barolo.

To follow, the Spotted Dick with custard and a half of the Chateau D'yquem. The '73.

Mind you, I'll have changed my mind in a minute.

[Jake]

What it is depends on the mood but that's generally the most satisfying meal there is, imo.

That or the Saturday dinner, hangover ahoy.

[Classic Jorge]

Though my OH did do me a fantastic one with additional bubble (no offence, nic) & squeak the other day.

[Classic Jorge]

Also, do you like snails as well as oysters?

[Jake]

Sausages
Bacon
Black pudding
Eggs
Mushrooms
Tomatoes
Beans
Toast
Blob of ketchup

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

If it's a special occasion and we're adding the dessert wine, add another 300.

Yes, I very much like snails, but only really in a retro 70s way, with lakes of garlic butter.

[Pokster]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Ashberto]

I'll have that lot without the dried blood and toadstalls.

[IUFG]

Or anything with enough spicy-heat to take me to the point of hallucination

[Classic Jorge]

Blob of ketchup, indeed.

Also, superfluous mushrooms and tomatoes. That's half a veggie fry up there. :yellowcard:

I have to say, if I'm going for my dream team fry up line up Bubble & Squeak is my new star signing.

I'm still bleeding from the anus after a damned good rogering last night, I'm afraid.

[IUFG]

[Classic Jorge]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

It's natural for a young man to be curious.

[Ashberto]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

It had a whole pack of coriander in it. I did think of you and chuckle.

[IUFG]

wish to engage with, or be curious about, Trouser Bandits...

All of that, plus bubble.

Lose the tomato if the plate is struggling.

[Trixie Popsicle]

Absolutely bloody yum imho, especially when my mummy used to make it.

[barrybueno]

Then again a :kebab: after 10 :lager: is pretty unbeatable.

[Classic Jorge]

Actual tomatoes are bad enough as it is, the tinned stuff is - at best - a contaminant.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Any place that serves them up, and indeed I have been in a few in London, should be closed down with immediate effect by the specific local authority.

[Jake]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

You only said Barolo to stop yourself looking like the big white wine queer that you actually are.

[barrybueno]

Chuck in a cup of tea and a pint of milk too (aunt Sally)

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Sometimes I ask them to pop it on ice for 3 or 4 minutes. We do tend to serve red wine far too warm in this country.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

I only really went south in order to attend musical recitals in Brixton.

My London was very different to the skinny jeans and beard infested f**ked up version you now inhabit where a bona fide ****house such as Shoreditch or go forbid f**king Dalston is actually a cool f**king place to go.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

I tried a chilled and indeed 'sparkling' red once, an afternoon soiree where meat was being cooked over hot coals.

It was f**king minging, went straight back onto the cider.

[Fred Killah]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Red wine should be served at room temperature, that is the rule - but room temperature in Georgian times, when the rule was made, wasn't the 23 degrees we live in now. It was more like 10.

[Jake]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

I didn't actually buy the f**king stuff.

I had Rose recently on holiday, more f**king pish. Our mutual friend T would be pleased all the same.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I like a drop of rose at lunchtime when in France. With ice cubes in it, like the locals have. Doesn't count as drinking, see?

Is t a particular fan of the rose?

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

He once piled into it at a pre-match drink up.

EIE.


:-|


p.s. Rose with ice. Gayer than mince.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Afterwards you could have a glass of iced rose :thumbup:

[Berni]

Followed by some portion of a duck's innards and a lovely zizz. :cloud9:

As Sir C says, it's not proper drinking. I'm pretty sure you're still legally allowed to drive after a couple of bottles, tbh.

[Berni]

overrated virtue in food, tbh.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

The idyllic almost picture book image somewhat soiled by the ultimate reality of being sat on a deck chair surrounded by empty Bulmers cans.

As you say, the initial feeling is all very 'Cider with Rosie' or 'Darling Buds of May', but this quickly degenerates into something a little more 'park bench'. :-(

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

You dirty dirty *******.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

More like a pair of travellers.

And his family from Limerick I believe also, Rathkeale I suspect.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

The salad also contains ears, of course.

[Alexism - Atheoist]

I mean, honestly, who does that?

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Were I not dining with Mrs SW I probably would have chinned the f**ker.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

What on earth were you doing there?

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

The Chapter One.

I recommend you try and get a reservation next time you are in Dublin.

I'm fairly sure I'd catch fire if I set foot north of the Liffey, sw. That's certainly the impression my grandmother gave me.

[Billy Goat Sverige]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

It was suggested as the only reason it took so long for it to be awarded it's star.

Essentially you call your taxi from the restaurant and only leave when you know it is at street level.

[Classic Jorge]

Then I got really bad guts from it, so bad I went to the hospital who told me it was probably made wrong and the fruit was toxic if not used in just the right way.

eat all the fish and dance around the maypole etc....Drinking might continue into much of Saturday which is Midsommardagen. The whole weekend is a big pissup really as most people start their 5 week summer holidays now.
