The question of which condiment with the bacon sanger has been raised.

Always the correct form when addressing the porker who died for your breakfast is HP. If for some reason the house has sat with no HP then Heinz tomato ketchup on the right hand slice of bread and a decent slather of Colman's English mustard on the left is acceptable.

If you're fortunate enough to have had access to the 99p shop in Brixton and now have a supply of Branston's gherkin relish (alas no Bix's cucumber relish, but there we are), then on summer morning when a person is feeling frivolous, it's just the job.

4 rashers of extra-virgin pork, triple cured on a bed of oak-smoked whiskey barrels

2 slices homemade spelt brioche, gently coaxed from a hand-greased tin

Three san marzano tomatoes, dried under an Italian sun then pulped with an ostentatious pestle and mortar.


Serve with The Guardian.

    • There's not enough people talking about this - I've often worried about it too  One busy staff's mistakes will not make my pockets lighter, thank you very much. Thanks Sue and all the best for the new year. 
    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
