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.......

In case any of you are ever out there, I found a cracking little place in Liege on Wednesday, right by the (quite stunning) train station. The place is called Le duc D'Anjou, and surprise, surprise it specialises in moules by the bucket. I had the Provencal Soupe de Poissons followed by the Moules Casserole du Chef (with a plate of frites, of course). Absolutely superb and all for €40 with a couple of Perriers (I know, I know).

Having a glass of Valdepenas with a few Habas Fritas. And very passable they both are. Valdepenas a very undervalued (and cheap!!) wine area. Recommended.

I wish this post were from Spain. But its not. Ah well.

De acuerdo...

I had - a very, very rare treat - fish, chips and peas from the famous Chae's in Harwood. With an Italian dry white from Aldi that was very, very passable. And, i don't quite believe this, cost £2.99. honestly. It's worth drinking - really.

Check it out - Collezione Italiana, Vino bianco.

I bought the red version as well. Will report. Having a curry tomorrow, so will try it out.

A rare treat from Chae's would not be having the shits for two days after eating from there.

8) It's shite

Chinese CANNOT do proper chips.

That said, Chae's sometimes have moderately fit serving staff on, which is a bonus

They probably doctored your nosebag on purpose. Serves you right for pulling on the skin at the sides of your eyes out and singing Ying Tong Tiddle Ey Po before you'd received your order! 8)

Not me, I'm respectful of all other cultures.....their Chinese food isn't too bad, it's good if you want to lose some weight.

Saw this thing on telly yesterday where a bloke chopped and fried some chorizo and then lobbed in two eggs into the same pan, making some kind of awesome chorizo egg omelette thing but not an omelette.

Then he put the whole thing (once the bottom of the egg had cooked) over some thick toast. It looked f ucking lush

Clearly an insurance job. Australian wine is shit.

And theres no way that anyone with that name should be taken seriously, either.

Got dragged by the missus to a cooking demo thing by Gino D'Acampo. Was quite good but he is almost a massive nice person.

I've met him a couple of times. One of the genuinely nicest 'famous' blokes I've spoken to.

LEGENDARY chippy!

Definitely proof that Chinese can do chips.

We went on this last night, it was ace and I'd recommend it to everybody:

I didn't express that well. He is almost, almost, too much, veering into 'god, I hate you territory', but since he isn't, I really liked it, and when he wasn't playing to the crowd, with the odd serious question, he seemed a decent guy. His TV 'personality' is proper annoying though.

Wife just brought in a "pea" supper from a stall on Bolton market. Meat and potato pie with mushy peas inside. Not bad at all. :D
