It was freshly cooked and even the chips were crisp - I think the secret is to go at a busy time so it's moving quickly. We have it only a couple of times a year and happily stuff our faces

Which one was it? It sounds good!

Omelett with crumbled feta on top, slice of ploughman's bread and some relish...if I had had any intention of being fancy, I'd have served the relish in one of those tiny little jam serving dishes ;-)

Cheese and ham tortillas fried in butter. So good.....

Steak and spicy wedges today

Found a nice looking striploin in the freezer and decided to pull it out for lunch today. Makes a nice change from regular lunch meals.

Left over toppings from a pizza the night before. One with blue cheese and one with goats cheese sauce and crumbled on top.

Prosciutto, ruccola, balsamic & honey reduction

Shaun Plays Games · 04-08-2014 08:20PM

We had a little picnic in the back garden.
Snacking on prawn and vegetable fritters. Ketchup and mayo dip for the kids, Thai sweet chilli for the adults.

Mrs Fox · 07-08-2014 02:35PM

Pad Thai from The Cooking Club. Another lovely day for a picnic in the back garden.

Hmmm. Nice? When we were in Spain they had delicious black puddings, one had fennel seeds added, it was like a savoury liquorice stick.

Mrs Fox · 09-08-2014 02:49PM

Soto Ayam - cubes of compressed rice cake, in a spiced chicken broth, served with condiments of shredded chicken, crispy shallots, finely sliced Chinese cabbage, birds eye chilli in soy, peanuts and spring onions.

The Hill Billy · 09-08-2014 03:59PM

Steak & cheese sandwich.

Pang · 09-08-2014 08:35PM

Lobster hash in White Friar Grill today. Thought it would be a bit tastier.

The Hill Billy · 10-08-2014 03:21PM

Grilled sandwich with Frikadellen, Gouda, mustard & Branston pickle.

A plate of very so-so carvery in Dun Laoghaire followed by a rocky road from Avoca (which tasted akin to something from the Cuisine de France stand in the petrol station). Gosh I'm turning into a right fusspot. (I also spent some time in Avoca visibly goggling at people spending mental money on pre-made meals. I know it's fancy in there but I saw a lady buy 3 packs of €9.95 cheesey baked potatoes.) Its life, Jim, but not as I know it.

I had an extremely disappointing chicken chow mein

MissFlitworth · 10-08-2014 06:23PM

It must be meh-food Sunday

Pang · 10-08-2014 07:09PM

Eggs Benedict with ham in San Lorenzo's. Not sure why I ordered ham as I had planned to get lobster, but after yesterday's mediocre lobster, I quickly changed my mind and made a weird choice.

Tasty all the same

Please tell me you mean three for €9.95? Which is still crazy expensive ...

MissFlitworth · 10-08-2014 07:14PM

3 packets of 2! They looked lovely & all (and they were stuffed baked potatoes so had both cheese & ham in them) but I think if I spent €30 on 6 baked potatoes I'd have to take myself outside for a talking to

Chattastrophe! · 10-08-2014 07:28PM

Feckin hell. I'm guilty of buying the odd overpriced ready-meal - but not THAT overpriced - and I'd make a point of getting something that's too complicated/time-consuming for me to make myself at home.

Why not just buy spuds, ham and cheese and bung them in the oven? Literally a small fraction of the price! With minimal effort.

Definitely a case of having far more money than sense!
