If he didn't only have three hours to get to Excel, get his number and get back on the train again the Boris Bike Race would be a right lark @BarneyBobCat

 

Couldn't D squeeze in a teensy weensy sprint Mrs F, if it was on his route back to the train. I'm sure BNC wouldn't mind returning his Boris bike back for him 😁

 

I put some dirty burgers together 😬

There’s onion and sliced pickles under there somewhere too!

 

OK I have a burger question. How do people eat a tall burger? I couldn't physically open my mouth big enough. The only person I know who eats burgers uses a knife and fork! (I do eat cheese burgers, no extra stuff, they fit my gob).

Also...pickle is cucumber?

 

Well, I crush them together, try not to get too much down my front and have plenty of serviettes to hand!
Tbh I do wish they’d make the buns a bit wider!
If I have a large burger in a restaurant I usually use a knife and fork under protest otherwise I’d probably get a few looks 😬

Yes, sliced pickled gherkin 😋😋😋

 

If I have a giant burger, I often dismantle it if it's got extras like salad, onion rings etc in it and then eat the bun, actual burger and bacon/cheese or whatever as one and the accoutrements as a side order. I will use a knife and fork if I have to. Yes @Jaf gherkins are a small form of cucumber I believe, which are then pickled.

 

Big burgers put my off @Jaf . Impossible to eat. so like the others I take stuff out and also use the squashing technique

 

I'm going to have a go at brining a chicken at the weekend.

Sounds like a lot of time needed. Do let us know if it was worth all that effort

 

I've brined pork a couple of times and it does make a difference

 

Gosh I love pickles!! Pickled gherkin, pickled cucumber.

I make a simple pickled Cucumber sliced and put in malt vinegar, salt and sugar.

A couple of years ago, when I was still growing veg, I picked all the young courgettes and made big jars of pickles. It was really easy, jusr pouring the warm spiced pickle over the ribboned courgette but I ate so much I made my tummy very hurty 🤣 it was explosive 🧨

 

Food porn incoming. First London restaurant coming up.....

 

Kebab shop first, get some serious porn in! 😻

 

I usually participate in the food thread on another forum, so here’s tonight’s effort.
Pirpiri butterflied chicken breast done in the air fryer, sautéed spuds with a few Italian herbs, garlic butter mushrooms and round green fings…

And plain boiled chicken breast 🙄

 

We went to the original Ivy last night for dinner. It was amazing. We both had Fish and chips which was mega. Totally forgot to take a photo! Doh!

 

This is how every day should begin. # Gordon Ramseys Heddon Street Kitchen

 

Ooh BBC glad to know the Ivy is still as good!!

And that breakfast is fabulous YUM!

How’s the head?

 

Fine remarkably! Lots of water always helps. Ready for round 2!!! Ding ding!!!!

 

Two joyous things about that plate of breakfast @BarneyBobCat black pudding and beans in a ramekin! If they’d have just “flapped” the eggs so they were white over the top it would be perfect I could cope though as the beans are not running wild!

 

Paging @BarneyBobCat Paging BBC!

If you and Mrs BBC like cheese, could you please go here and report back for me? See if it’s worth my travelling there

I'd pay not to go!! 🤣

 

No time for cheese? What are you, a man or a mouse

 

Squeek squeek squeek!

 

Amazing lunch @ Theo Randall's. Italian breads as an entre, salami for me and mozzarella for the Mrs. I had guinea fowl for my main which was the best thing I've ever eaten. Ragu for Mrs BNC. Both have had Amalfi Lemon Tart to finish. All washed down with prosecco. Delish!

 

Tell you what @DolomiTTe I'll eat your share, should I ever go there I'm so charitable!

 

Done! 😃

 

Immense Ruby tonight @ Vivek Singhs Cinnamon Bazarre

 

Oh I'm jealous @BarneyBobCat ! It looks amazing 🤩

 

Please can I come to Mrs BBC’s birthday celebrations next year??? Lunch and dinner looked AMAZING!!

And then happy to try the cheese place for a late night snack after!

 

Everyone is most welcome. Slightly worried about my arse tomorrow, booked in for another Indian at breakfast 😅

 

@BarneyBobCat how about you organise a get together next year for Mrs BNC's birthday. We'll all meet up 😁
