Fruit and meat on the same plate = WRONG!!!!

[BWFC_Insane]

Fruit and meat on the same plate = WRONG!!!!

No, no, no it can work beautifully!

Pork and apple (and indeed pear) as an example...

And in fact these are the two meat main dishes currently on the Northcote A-la-carte lunch menu

Bolton Castle Grouse Wellington,
Sweet & Sour Turnip Puree, Roast Pear,
Grouse Parfait

Loin of Bowland Venison, Potato Wrapped
Homemade Black Pudding, Scottish Girolles,
Celeriac Puree, Pickled Damsons

I've had similar that venison dish with damsons there a year or so back and it was bloody delicious I tell thee.....

Pear must be the "in thing"...

[boltonboris]

Celeriac... Bleurgh

So you're telling me if you roasted a lovely pork joint on a Sunday you'd not partake in some apple sauce?

My god...

As for people that don't like celeriac, good god, what is the world coming to? Celeriac is a delight!

[boltonboris]

It's fvuckin 'orrible.

Celery, celeriac.. It's all a disgrace!

[Worthy4England]

It's fvuckin 'orrible.

Celery, celeriac.. It's all a disgrace!

Agreed.

And no to apple sauce with pork as well.

Oh, and cucumber can just fook right off, while we're at it.

[Bruce Rioja]

I am. Mustard goes with pork, apple goes with pastry and custard.

[General Mannerheim]

[Bruce Rioja]

LF are sending me Pi. Did one of you guys recommend it?

had summat with "peppered pear" in a restaurant the other day (main course, not pudding!) - it was, in fact, very nice!

[2399]

What's this Fruit doing with my Bacon and Eggs!!!??

(The Fruit is Tomato!)

Ah, but of course you wouldn't have had any accompanying meat though. Peppered pear does sound quite interesting.

I got my old Soccer tapes!

None of them are labelled!!
So I will rewind and check which matches are to begin with.

I can only remember taping Three Bolton matches:
The obvious one, Cup Final Loss to Brough (Boro) and the end of season match with Leeds that sent them down!

Other than that I know there is at least one Foxes match and some Euro 2004 matches.

Lets hope all these tapes are Standard Play!

(I just realised they might not be!!!)

[Bruce Rioja]

There's some nice person on the tele now that they've just championed as being, and I shite you not, 'the master of the de-constructed dessert'. Oh, what an accolade!

[jmjhb]

More middle-class food wankery. Urgh.

Think it was on BBC2.

[Lord Kangana]

If you've ever had fruitcake with good cheese, you'll know.

If you haven't, I sympathise for your cold, bleak sorry existence.

[Lord Kangana]

Indeed.

Take pity on them bish, for they know not what they do.

[Lord Kangana]

Bollox, that should say forgive. Messed up the moment.
