Lunch (salmon sandwich)

Have you had a chance to visit Fallow? I hope at some point if or when I get back down to London and get a table for the wife and I.

They also have a hidden menu too, they serve a whole pigs head as part of it.
Lol no, I'm stuck looking after my mum twenty-four hours a day and wouldn't count myself as a member of the restaurant-going class. Although videos like yours might turn me around one day.

Restarting thread...

Second test calzone is Black 'n' Blue. Steak, fior de latte mozzarella and gorgonzola. Sure smells good.

Silly question, but is that one or two? I know you get two in a portion, but do you normally eat both in one go?

It's one. I have to cut it in half to fit it on the plate.

@Sprite and Mrs. Sprite have also shopped at TCK if you want a second opinion. I think he liked them as well.

Cool, thanks - I thought so, it looks like one broken in two 😅

That looks like a good size, and good value - I reckon I will place an order and try them. You could charge commission 😅

I think they offer some kind of perk to someone who initiates another acolyte into their cult but I'm honestly not bothered. Hope you enjoy them.
 
I made chicken and pineapple using a recipe from ChatGPT - it was really pretty good, and not bad for a first attempt, esp. given that the sauce was made from scratch; I had everything needed for it, and the green pepper and onion chunks added a nice little bit of authenticity. The only disappointment was the chicken - I didn't bother marinading it (as the recipe didn't mention it), but that was a mistake; I also think the chicken breast itself just wasn't great to start with, but the pineapple and veg made up for it.

Another Philly cheesesteak calzone. I'm glad the revised version still involves nacho cheese and white onions alongside the marinated steak as I feel these are what make the recipe worthwhile for me.

They changed the cooking instructions from "oven bake at 180° for 18-22 minutes" to '"microwave for three minutes then air-fry or oven bake at 180° for nine minutes" but I still prefer the old method.

[EDIT] Whoops, nearly forgot the photo:

Tonight's dinner was a beer-braised pork tenderloin with an onion/beer sauce on it, German potato salad made in a way I've never had before, but a co-worker swore by it (it's good), a cabbage/apple/carrot slaw, and Guinness cheddar bread. I topped it all off with an Old Nation Oktoberfest beer.

Enjoyed a ramen meal with some interesting appetizers I will not buy again - they weren’t bad, but not what I expected. They were just all over the place lol, very messy.

The ramen was fantastic. Chicken with a miso garlic broth and fried garlic, quite spicy.

Had a go at making my own calzone wraps - turned out pretty well - I cooked a couple of chicken thighs in the air fryer and then made the wraps with a bunch of mozzarella, spicy pizza sauce, a few bits of air-fried pepperoni, jalapeños and herbs - and brushed the dough with garlic-infused olive oil. Bit of a faff, but a good plateful and good fun to make...

I was watching TV and I saw a commercial for the new Chicken and Waffle sandwich from Chick Fil A..... so of course I had to make my copycat version. Unfortunately I did not have any bacon this time but it was still pretty good.

With @Mikey posting about Nduja recently, when this popped up at Aldi I had to grab it.

The use of the word "style" probably means it's not even remotely like the real thing, which is probably for the best as it was kind of bland.
 
Sorry Specially Selected let you down with false advertising. Were I in your shoes I'd 100% get some extra spicy sausage spread and plaster that mother to kingdom come. Too much is not enough, in my book.

Hmmmm. I’m gonna see if I can find it in stores. A pizza would be fun with it.
