What are you eating and drinking tonight?

If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

Don't know about tonight, but I've just had a Greenhalgh's meat and potato pie and half a cheese and onion pasty. Very nice.

Potato & Meat Tango. FFS don't open THAT can of worms again.

Okay, I'm happy to go with potato and meat. Either way it was good. :)

Well, I'm still, officially, barred from that shop !

I am also working my way through a prodigiously-proportioned block of locally-made strong cheddar and cider cheese that I bought at FishStock last weekend... it is mouth-wateringly tart!! yum! :-)

Moons ago I ate in a Gary Rhodes restaurant within the Dolphin Square hotel, Pimlico.

I noted no 'condiment' on the table & requested some salt when the starter came.

Waiter "Ah ... I think 'sir' will find the food is adequately seasoned".

"Thank you, but 'sir' would like to be the judge of that"

He disappeared to return with a blue-glass bowl in a silver lace-style holder & a small silver 'ladel'. Presented it to me as if it were the Koh-i-Noor diamond. I put a little on my food & he whisked it away.

"well, that'll be coming back sunshine" I thought.

We went through the same charade for the main course. He actually 'tutted' when I asked that time.

Guess who didn't get a tip ?

got a Groupon deal that was for two people, 3 courses each, for £50!.. unfortunately hadnt noticed it was for a Monday or Tuesday night only... so ill let you know Monday! we had a £15 quid cocktail on the 42nd floor (rhodes is only on the 24th)then frigged off to old favourite Jamies Italian!

tbh Twenty Four looked a bit too fiddle-de-dee & lardee-da for me. I prefer imformality of an evening, frickin formal all day long at work.

when you visiting?

Went on a magical mystery tour tonight. Daughter and son-in-law took us out for a birthday meal. Went up past the Wilton, Black Dog, Belmont Bull? and onwards till we turned right for Tockholes. Pub somewhere down there called The Victoria. Had a very decent meal of a trio of lamb chops in mint sauce with fresh veg, carrots, runner beans and chips. Enjoyable. Wife had fillet steak with Diane sauce. Said it was lovely. Had a couple of pints of Old Peculiar to wash it down (me, not the wife, she had white wine.). :)

Courtesy of the takeaway down the road, in about 30 mins it will be:

Poppadoms with assorted dips
Lamb Madras
Chicken Tikka Shashlik
Pilau Rice
Garlic Naan

Between 3 of us, not just me that is. :pissed:

4 x 660ml bottles of Tsingtao to wash it down. Indian food and Chinese beer. It's the future!

Just had the most delicious M&S tray bake. Bourbon biscuit base topped with toffee, dulce de leche and honeycomb etc. Probably really really fattening... But Mmmmm.... Comfort food at its best.

Tonight, it's Lamb, California Prune and butternut squash tagine. Looks incredibly rich but can't wait for it to come out of the oven in ten.
