Haha Jah and Seabag you read my mind!


Love all the suggestions. Actually Red Leicester is a great choice I got into habit of making it chilli cheese on toast though, so colourful, so hot.


But bog standard cheese on toast is great. Glad no-one mentioned bacon. Or kale.


Grilled cheese sandwich in the states is a fried in butter cheese and not cheese on toast, grilled. Weird eh.

I find myself making this once in a blue moon, when the tide of my creative juices are out


Take a good oblong loaf and slice along the lenght, and then again, crating an oblong slab


Light a good fire of Oak and beech, then lightly toast the bread one side, then the other


Retire to a mirrored hall, light the candles and place the toasted bread upon a well upholstered chair


Dress youself in a gray fur cotume, then place the many cheeses of the world upon a banqueting table, in a block pattern Piet Mondrian style


Nibble the toast like a rat, and using a mallet, randomly whack a cheese. Take the crumb of the whacked cheese and nibble in tandem with the toast


It's delicious



Ps. If i'm in a more sureal mood, then I'll go for Brie and other soft cheese

Did I not mention the floor was made of ice ?


I skate round after, whacking the midget on the head. With each whack, he fires a fermented Muscat grape from his mouth into mine


Maybe that's where you confuse his "forrwars yet backwards" speak Otta?


I'm also considering a giant lawn made from Cheese Straws, and a golden mower that cuts it. As it rotates past me, im laying on a sunbed made out of a giant sourdough baguette


A lens tied to a girrafe catches the sun, thus toasting my bread bed


The mower passes me on its ever tighter arc, and 'clippings' of the cheese straw lawn rain down upon me


I roll face down and gorge myself on this delightful snack

A recent auction on the eBay is going to stun you, where Tom Bridge from Newburgh, Lancashire is going to put up his renovated cheese toast, costing ?345 a slice for sale.

I know I am going to stop every time I bite into my slice of Cheese toast. But if you think of the contents you would know why Bridge tagged a slice at such a high - L'Aquila White Umbrian truffles, worth ?1,400 per kilo, and Matsutake Chinese mushrooms, at ?250 per lb.

Bridge?s Welsh Rarebit is a slice of Warburtons Toastie bread topped with creamy Lancashire cheese, chosen for its unique melting consistency, as well as L?Aquila white Umbrian truffles and Matsutake Chinese mushrooms. Considering the high price of both the truffles and the mushrooms, the dish cost a grand total of £345 (about US $609 at the time) to create.

Jeremy that sounds absolutely horrendous!


In fact, I think it tops the Norfolk pub that 'ironically' deep fries sandwiches in batter.

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      By David Peckham · Posted

      I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.

      Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !

      That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      By David Peckham · Posted

      This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
