Absolutely exquisite.

Little day trip to Glasgow.

Had breakfast at Tim Horton. First time I've actually tried any of their food. Had the sausage, egg and cheese muffin with a hash brown and a large French Vanilla. Pretty decent. The French Vanilla is so smooth!

Today was the launch day for the Double Down in the UK for KFC, so I had to get that. It's really nothing to rave about that much. Its basically bacon, cheese and BBQ sauce between two chicken fillets. Its overpriced for something that's really rather basic when you think about it. It was pretty nice though. It was a good size for dunking into the side of gravy I got

I just stopped by a new shop called Awesome Chips. Very popular it is too with a queue of people. I bought the small cone for £1.95. Quite a fair amount of chips and yes, they're quite awesome.

What's so special about them? They look fairly ordinary. Do they do them with any toppings?

Merlin5 · 9 Oct 2017 at 17:07

Tbh, I was just hungry and they were delicious. Something nice about eating chips outdoors. But yeah, nothing particularly special, though they're nice and crispy. Not pre-cut though, all peeled, washed, cut and sliced fresh spuds. They did toppings but I didn't bother. http://awesomechips.uk/

That's quite a good selection of sauces and spices.

Large Belgian Bun.

Is that Greggs then ?
that is one of the things that always attracts me in their window (but unfortunately, typically not hungry, as I pass)

Tesco, pack of two for about £1.20/ £1.30.

Sous Vide Pork Tenderloin (135F for 1H30) Roast potatoes and carrots, and a Japanese mushroom pan sauce.

Thanks was tasty.

I normally do mine at 140F too, this was my first time at 135F and it think it will be my go to temp.

Thanks to the stupid bus being help up by roadworks, I didn't have time to go to Greggs to pick up some food for work before the start of my shift. As a result I only had two packets of crisps for my whole shift. Picked up a cheeky Dominos on the way home. Got a small pizza and garlic pizza bread for £6.99. Got a Meatlilicious with the pepperoni and ham swapped out for double pulled pork. And I got a honey mustard dip. Really enjoyed it

Corrrr, that looks awesome!

Craig1981 · 15 Oct 2017 at 20:50

It was proper tasty. Their pulled pork is really good. And its great dipping in the honey mustard!

PORK|

Mmmm this looks perfect. I normally have my pork around this temp, it's so much nicer!

Boiled long grain rice with salt and black pepper added, topped with fish in butter sauce and sweetcorn, and a side of chips. Means I'll have to wash the sieve again. : (

jpaul · 19 Oct 2017 at 22:03

aka kedgeree ?
the art in cooking rice (although still mastering it myself) is too have it absorb all the water - although you would have the sieve manufacturers redundancy on your conscience
