Can any one please fill in the gaps with vowels to make the answer some sort of food .The letter are written like this.....tc hrs trtr but we think the gaps are merely to confuse you as another clue was written fr nchn risp and the answer is French onion soup!!! We are trying to help a grand son with his school quiz and this has stumped us.

[bookbinder]

hrs and trtr could be horse(radish) and tartar, both kinds of sauce. The tc has me stumped me as well.

[hc4361]

Is that one clue?

[Neveracrossword]

Tc - Taco?

[elliemay1]

could there be misprints as'onion' can't be made from 'fr nchn risp'? The letters 'ri' don't fit.

[scorpiojo]

Are the letters correct? Your letters for French onion soup have a second r and a vowel in.

[Calibax]

something starter?

The example has been typed incorrectly in this thread and on the 'correction; thread- I think the ri (RI) should be an n (N) so French Onion Soup does work.

I am struggling with TC HRS TRTR though- although I can see possible words such as TACO, HORSE and TARTAR

taco house starter, which my local does!

[fiction-factory]

It would have to be horse not house but there isn't also an S for starter
Maybe TACO ans STARTER are right though.
Answers can be two or more unrelated items it seems

[fiction-factory]

As there has been a typo/misreading with the french onion soup one are you 100% sure of these letters. If he h was a d I could suggest an answer

[pixie374]

It could be hare...can get hare taco. But seems unlikely

[hc4361]

Tell us, FF. I'm pulling my hair out

[fiction-factory]

I think you may have it, hc, since cowslip has said that each clue can contain more than one food item - so maybe there are three separate ones here. If four are allowed it could be TEA ICE, HARE, STARTER

[hc4361]

What do you think it is if the correct letter is D?

[fiction-factory]

I don't think it can be a 'd', hc, as it's not close to looking like an 'h'. If it was d i was thinking it could end in 'cod roe starter'

[fiction-factory]

I think yours is better, hc

[Davemano]

Just read this and wondered if the 'h' could have been meant as a 'b', and suggest Taco Bar Starter?

[fiction-factory]

After the flurry of activity last week, Dave, cowslip has not been back so maybe the problem has been solved or the closing date has passed. It would be interesting to see the answer at some stage

Cowslip, please help us!
