Egg Boss scotch eggs are definitely worth a try, if you're not already acquainted, - in particular the black pudding and the hot sauce varieties.


They cost ?6-?12 per egg (in real money that's ?2.50 per egg or 3 for ?6, I believe).

Someone has already recommended Tachbrook St in Pimlico but I'd second it.


As well as the "best-value-lunch-in-London-?3-falafel-wrap" there is also an excellent Turkish grill selling some fine kebabs.


The mahoosive mixed wrap (lamb and chicken, sauces and heaps of salad) costs ?6 or between ?6-?12 in Louisa money.

Is this seriously a thread about the beatification of traditonal WC food ?


Can I start a similar one about how great is was when WC lives were dominated by Scurvy/Rickets/Rackman landlordism/ being conspripted and killed in futile Colonial wars/ Asbestotis/ Industrial accidents at unregulated industrial plants/ press ganging / TB / London Smog/ Cholera / black death / Indentured domestic and agricultural slavery/ the highland clearences/ and all other other shit has has been heaped upon the proles for the past millenia?


Jellied eel is shit and only came about cos the rotten capitalist polluted rivers of the past were devoid of life and Eels were transportable and vagueley alive & fresh after a few days out of their muddy murk habitat in the provinces. Now that Eels are on their last legs, we all love them again. Except we dont, but the Third Reich Bellended Waffen gestapo crowd tell us we do.So I suppose its all right then. or maybe not. I dunno.


nazi grocers and brownshirt butchers have alot to answer for

Right I can't take this anymore. I've tried, god knows I've tried, but how much for a pizza? Please tell me it's not a fiver a slice 'bout now? What toppings?


Woodrot - eels don't have to just be jellied, they can be pan fried with some fancy sauce if needed.


I'm actually in shock right now, that cheese and marmite sarny just flew out the window.

I think you may have missed the boat on the Egg Boss - I think he's only making scotch eggs now on special occasions.

His latest venture is paleo food - various recipes that cater for those on the paleo diet.

in 25 years time, will we all be trooping along to Frankins to gorge ourselves on Domino style pizzas with a ghastly cock shaped suasage in the ring? whilst chewing down 3ltr zeppelins of white lightning and having a ?20 bag of hydroponic Viet cultivated Skunk as a desset ?


pah

titch I'm trying to be more diplomatic. And yes it's human nature to be inquisitive, trying new things etc but at what point does that cross the line into pretentious? I ate a crocodile steak at a gastropub in Putney, I didn't enjoy the experience. Does that make me pretentious?


El Pibe - jellied eels with spiced vinegar and salt are the key ingredients to make it taste differently. The eel is a very versatile dish, and the solidified jelly is no different to eating the fat surrounding a rasher of bacon.

El Pib's


I'm issuing a 'Pie Fatwa' lest we get into a Pie house/ Pie shop war of words.


In future they can be referred to as a "consumable lidded pastry holding vessels" for the purpose of this thread.

Oooo yes I know...Eels Eels Eels



The Eel


Acting on the advice of an anonymous note, Takuro Yamashita (Kōji Yakusho) returns home early one night to find his wife in bed with another man. He kills her and then turns himself in to the police. After being released from prison, he opens a barber shop. He helps save Keiko Hattori (Misa Shimizu) from a suicide attempt, after which she works at his shop. It becomes clear that Keiko has romantic affections for Takuro, but his reciprocation is directed towards his pet eel.

    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them 
    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.
