Belatucadrus Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Lidl Hunters chicken, roast tatties, kalettes and carrots. We had thought of eating out, but it's half term and most of our regulars were packed with families and a plethora of screaming kids. We ended up trying the Perdiswell harvester took the girl ages to come back to take our orders by which time we were getting a bit teed off. Cod and chips we say. Oh we haven't got any fish she responds, would have perhaps been an idea to share this gem of data right at the start of proceedings. We paid for the drinks and left, hence the above.

Belatucadrus Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Having failed on Wednesdays eat out foray we had another go. Same problem half term families filling the joints to capacity. Rather than give in we went to that most exotic emporium of fine dining, Sainsburys Kidderminster restaurant, where we had their beer battered cod and chips. Nothing spectacular but cheap and quite edible. Only real draw back there is they have a tiny kitchen and if they're even slightly busy things run Slooooow.

-pops- Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Tesco "Italian Inspired" Meatballs today. Normally, I'm not one for buying meat products that have been "messed around with"* but these were half price and, if they're any good, might "inspire" me to make something akin to them. *Except sausages and cured pork products. Update: Meatballs quite disappointing. There was nothing about them to characterise them as Italian and they were heavy balls of very finely ground meat with little flavour (and not enough salt).

How weird. Gravy with fried black pudding - must be a Burntwood thing. We wouldn't dream of eating that combination in Solihull..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 You ay posh enough am yer. Can’t beat a drop of gravy. If we have a meat pie and chips we have gravy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanHo Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Gravy with chips is decadent - I like chips, but only deep fried crispy ones. McCains Home Chips deep fried in sunflower oil at 185oC are my favourite. To soak them in gravy and get them soggy is sacrilege. Now, home made beef and onion pasties with fluffy maris piper boiled spuds, veg and lots of beef gravy is quite another matter. It's one of my favourites.

-pops- Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Hoping to get some mussels then we'll have them in tomato sauce with pasta. Otherwise, mixed fish mornay with Parmentier potatoes and sugar snap peas. Edit: Managed to get mussels so the fish mornay will be tomorrow. Making it today, though, to keep the fish fresh.

I used to drool over B&B pudding - one of my most favourite puddings when I was young. We used to call it STUNGE (rhymes with gunge).
