Those yuzu treats take the cake if not the biscuit.

I didn’t know Jaffa was a variety of lemon.

My local Tesco's does them.

I'm gonna cheat and post some picks from my nephew Francis's recent meal with his wife Gillian.

A bunch of awesome food and one random plate with a hot dog and tater tots.

Isn’t that just a brand of fruit, rather than a species? I’m too lazy to Google it.

Jaffa cakes are certainly cakes; they lack crunch like a biscuit.

I think it’s supposed to be a version of a full English Breakfast. I spy

Tater Tots - Hash Brown
Hot Dog - Sausage
Baked Beans - Baked Beans
Bacon - Bacon
Toast - Toast
Mushrooms - Mushrooms
Scrambled Egg - Scrambled Egg

The last one top of the plate I can’t identify.

Tried out a new burger spot in my city with a few friends today. I had a simple cheeseburger with some coleslaw, both were pretty nice!

Very cool, how much was that meal worth? Just curious...

I think it's just greens of some description. Lettuce or something.

Very good on a ~33°C day in Praha.

That was a great deal mate. $26 for that? Wow...

 

[phillgt2002]

A “Pain Suisse”? Some kind of custard, raisins bread?

Pretty goood.

 

[Touring Mars]

Really?? That's really not a good deal. Even the most expensive burger place in my city is $17 for a burger, so $26 is outrageously expensive.

I should mention that it was 22 Euros in total for the burger, the coleslaw and two Coke's plus tip.

Yeh, I figured that was probably the meal price, so it's about the same as Five Guys is here - though that's the top end of the price scale in the UK!

My favourite burger in the US was In-N-Out burger - I lived in Irvine, where the company is/was based, and they did a huge triple cheeseburger - current price $8.50/€7.25/£6.25 - Five Guys is trying to be In-N-Out burger, but fails miserably on the price front!

Tbf this burger was much better than Five Guys. We‘ve got them in Germany too but their burgers are too greasy for my taste.

It’s cool that you lived in Irvine! I spent a year in Iowa during a student exchange but I haven’t been to California yet. I would love to go there some day (not anytime soon though as I won‘t visit the US as long as Trump is president).

As much as I'd love to agree with you, my favorite burger in town is a raspberry jalepeno popper burger from Blarney Stone Pub. The burger and fries is $19.49. Throw in a Guinness, IPA or a margarita for $8, tax of $2 and a $6 tip and you're at $35.49/person.

I spent two hours weed wacking, mowing, edging and leaf blowing and came inside to mochi, dark chocolate and banana pancakes.

Another large bowl of Nongshim Black spicy ramen and prawns. The mushrooms came with.

You tip in Germany?

 

[Imbissbrunto]

You tip in Germany?

Yes but definitely not as much as they do in the US. How about you guys?

On topic: I made turkey breast for dinner tonight.

Thanks for the idea - just what I felt like after a hot day... I used a pack of spicy Ramen noodles and added prawns cooked with soy sauce, garlic and spring onions - and it was super tasty!

 

[coryclifford]

Rice, peas, carrots, horseradish, La Choy stick and sweet and sour. And a couple beef sticks. Makes no sense.

 

[Joey D]

My Greek coworker told me how to make dolmades, so I thought I'd give it a shot. They came out pretty good. Made chicken gyros and a Mediterranean salad as well.

Generally no. Few people might but it's a weird show off thing in my view (or lack of knowledge, alternatively cash habits where they'd round up), waiters and servers have regulated and okay salaries, the employers are actually paying them. There's absolutely no need to. Many places will give you the option to enter the amount you want to pay but you can just type in the actual cost and that's the end of it.
