Would You Order This?

[EcclesCake]

In a restaurant would this dish catch your eye?

Venison carpaccio with pomegranate seeds, capers, Parmesan shavings, baby leaves and a horseradish and lemon creme fraiche dressing?

[sandyRoe]

Mug of tea(though that's usually extra) greasy bacon, fried bread, sausage, beans, tomato, and mushrooms if you're lucky.
What care we for haute cuisine?

[BlackadderV]

You forgot the black pudding, Sandy, and the fried egg.

[sandyRoe]

Yes, the egg goes without saying. The black pud is served in classier places. Might need a Michelin * to get it here.

[SirOracle]

Also the sliced haggis and the fried dumpling.

[BlackadderV]

Haggis I can understand but fried dumpling? That's new one on me.

[sandyRoe]

But Hash browns are a dreadful American import that have no proper place in the Full English

[SirOracle]

Very common in Scotland Blackadder ( and delicious by the way ).

[DaisyNonna]

Forget the tea

[BlackadderV]

Tomatoes, as you rightly say, although my greengrocer says tomatoe's☺

[sandyRoe]

an es on the end

[sandyRoe]

And a dry slice to mop up the tasty juices.

[BlackadderV]

I agree about hash browns. OK in their place, but their place is not the breakfast table. For excellence add a few devilled kidneys.

[BlackadderV]

I love the way this thread has diverted from pretentious nouvelle cuisine to good, old fashioned British grub.

[DaisyNonna]

Anything vital in your lunch?

[sandyRoe]

Edamame beans after all that excess at breakfast ☺
