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.

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.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
