Best food for this weather?

[Robert Poste's Child]

Surely it has to be Greek, Cypriot and Turkish food? Beautifully stuffed vegetables with a hint of mint, grilled meat on the bone, thin-skinned tomatoes, flat bread, olives and grapes. If I wasn't so lazy I'd bike down to the Cypriot deli near Goose Green right now. Making do with some onion breadsticks and black grapes from Lidl.

I had porridge for breakfast yesterday. Serious error of judgement.

Well due to a poster's reference to 4 for ?2 I am now mainlining Magnums . Dark with raspberry is top choice .Though not 4 for ?2.

Looking in your direction RPC .

Bulgur wheat salads - lots of tomatoes, cucumber, peppers etc. with feta/steamed salmon/avocado depending on how I feel. Delicious.

And tempted to make lemon granita - perfect for cutting through the heat.

Why are they so fiendishly addictive? For me it's the double caramel and sometimes the new praline one, though the normal almond milk chocolate is good too. Hoping the offer ends soon as that'll help me say no.

Cola float, I was trying to find a cafe that had them on the menu, in the end I bought a mcflurry from McDonalds and a bottle of coke, it wasn't the same as mcflurrys are too soft. Needs to be Cornish Vanilla Ice Cream and coke in a tall Knickerbockerglory glass. Yes very 70's.

Strawberries and raspberries are good at the moment.

Anything with peppers and tomatoes: pepperonata, caponata, ratatouille.

Zaru (cold) soba gets my vote, especially if you have some ice both in the dip and in the bowl of noodles to keep everything refreshingly cool!
