Yes? But, again, that post from more than seven years ago was referenced...out of the blue.
Your opinion stuck in my head for next time I ate a tuna salad. I just referenced the post as a receipt. Is that okay or did I violate the statute of limitations or something?

Roast chicken with Mediterranean veg and homemade gravy

Very tasty, but could have used some new potatoes...
 
Well for Monday we had a typical English salad if there is such a thing for evening meal and lunch has been some basic ham salad sandwiches.

Then on Tuesday was ham salad again for lunch with homemade carbonara for evening meal.

Wednesday was chicken salad for lunch and a grilled chicken and Greek salad for evening meal.

Today it’s been ham salad and tonight another Greek Salad with Grilled chicken. Bit at this very moment it’s water and a few of these…

Imported Amaretti. They were part of a shop from Sous Chef. Also picked up some nice mild Greek olive oil for the Salad tonight song with Kalamata olives and oregano.
 
Big Arch from Ealing Broadway McD's.
Bit of juxtaposition but just had my lunch with…

Sardines in herbs and olive oil, cottage cheese on sourdough toast. Bit of black pepper too.

Just gently warmed the cheese and sardines on a hot water bath to get them slightly above room temp. This keeps the fish whole and not mushy. Also it releases the herbs oils. So good.
 
Just so I don't lower the thread quality any further I also picked up a couple of salami, feta, rocket and 'nduja foccacias at Victoria Station.

The guy was kind enough to chuck in an extra little tub of 'nduja after he saw me salivating at the counter.

My wife and I ate around the corner from there at Wok and Fire before seeing Hamilton.

I hummed and hawed about getting a takeout from Wok and Fire but thought "nah, I want a burger". Unfortunately my two targets Black Bear and Bleecker were closed at the time of my morning medical appointment so I missed out.

Fortunately I've had Bleecker before when I worked near the Westfield shopping centre in White City and thought at the time "these are a perfected version of the Birdseye burgers I had as a kid". I'm not surprised they're so popular with restaurant critics. In 'N' Out still beat them for me though despite the weird palm trees and creepy bible verses on the packaging.

I'm almost always in the mood for a burger but my wife can't eat wheat. Most places either don't have a gluten free bun or they don't hold up and get soggy so she'd rather just skip it. Indian and Thai are usually safe bets, though.

I'd never heard of a chop house before but with "tandoor" in front of it (which appears to be closed now), it must be Indian so I figured we'd give it a shot. When they brought us our food, we asked for rice and the server looked at us funny and said they didn't have any. That's when it occurred to us what a chop house was. :lol:
