What are you eating and drinking tonight?

[Raven]

Just got given a free packet of skittles, no wonder they are free, what vile things they are, rather eat me own sick!

[William the White]

Yep - for years they had a Macon-Villages for under a fiver (now, alas, vanished). This was followed by an Albarino from Galicia for a fiver (which also seems to have gone the way of all flesh). But this one is head-shakingly not possible... I don't want to exaggerate - it is only 'decent' midweek drinking - but it is also only £3.29!

aye - none of us on here would dream of drinking it on a weekend! imagine!!

Do your lot do the blood of Christ type of 'communion'?

Not for £3.29 a chuck they don't.

Well. I got 4 bottles to try (if I don't go for a wine first time I feel it deserves a second go), so you'll know about it if I'm forcing those third & fourth bottles down. They took some finding .... all on the very bottom, in boxes. You'd have to be a terrific short-arse to see them quickly .... Billy.

No need to force. I'll buy them from you at £2.29 a bottle.

Three bottles and change from a Tenner? That's Rammy Aldi getting a visit on the way home.

Smoked salmon tonight. Not sure what with yet. Possibly just cheap red wine

A bit of pasta, cream and chuck in the smoked salmon late on. Black pepper and off you go.

If you're popping into Aldi then grab a bottle (or three) of their Verdejo. Usually does the job with a smoked salmon risotto.

For extra ponciness I put chopped lemon balm (when available) in mine instead of the parsley.

It's called 'Grapevine', Bruce.

As bobo intimated, you may need to wear your specs and get down on your knees to find it. Though why he had trouble beats me, since he's the spitting image of a garden gnome.

Cheers chaps. There's a list coming on now. Note to self - Arborio rice

Toothache gone then?

Unfortunately not, so a sloppy risotto's well in order along with medicinal wine

ooof - sick burn!

[clapton is god]

Had a few of these last week down in Southwold and brought a crate home with me. Bloody gorgeous!

Just ordered another four crates by mailorder for, ahem, Christmas. Yes, I'm sure they'll last until then....probably.

Aye, can't be doing with their Bitter, but the Broadside is a cracking pint.

A splendid heads-up there, William. It's accompanying the smoked salmon salad very nicely thanks. Chin chin.

Greeny - Couldn't find your recco anywhere, Chief. Is it only available in certain stores, do you know?

I've bought it many times in the West Derby Aldi in Liverpool. Wasn't in the Musselburgh one though, so pr'aps.

Cheers, Fella. I really should introduce more white to the rack. I'll see if they have it in the biggun in town.

Aldi do a Hungarian (yes, I know) Chardonnay for £3.49 which Mrs BP and I both quite enjoy. Then again, we're as common as muck!

Mrs BP also likes the Prosecco at £5.39 which is very reasonably priced.

I concur. I don't usually do Prosecco, but that yellow label stuff in Aldi is excellent.

[William the White]

From the Aldi in Bolton centre today - one prosecco, two verdejo, from reccos above. Look forward to confirming them.
