That bread with the soup looks delicious (although doesn't look like real butter, seems a bit margeriney, but could be the photo)

The breakfast also looks great. What's the sauce on top of the salmon?

Thanks guys, and good spot on the butter (which it isn't), it's Flora

, that is honey mustard on the salmon.

More Mac 'n Cheese, but with fusilli instead. So, Fus 'n Cheese.

Craig1981 · 13 Feb 2019 at 20:46

Looks awesome again. Could really go for that with some garlic bread.

Merlin5 · 13 Feb 2019 at 20:47

Thanks Craig, and this is the cheesiest one ever. Yes, good suggestion with the Garlic Bread, gonna buy me some for the next time.

Was craving sourdough yesterday so since the wife was out i picked this up for tea.

Probably shouldn't have ate it all as i still can feel the bloat!

About to be eating picanha steak and gastro chips

Made valentine tapas. Pan tumaca with some chorizo slices, chorizo al vino and patatas bravas.

No aioli what.

I love patatas bravas.

Edit: patatas not pajamas.

That looks nice and all but I think even for me that is a carb overload. You've got potatoes, with a side of bread.. and on the side some more bread? :confused:

(All those carbs and red wine isn't going to help if you were aiming for some hanky panky on Valentines, in my household that meal would work better than a couple of Nytols

)

Went to the cinema to see Lego Movie 2 today. Went to nearby McDonalds for lunch afterwards. Tried out the Grand Big Mac with bacon. Gotta say I'm fairly unimpressed. For one the bacon is way undercooked. For another its the usual sloppy McDonalds build and thin hard to taste patties. I would not rush back to try this again. Since I was there I also made an old menu hack, the Italian McChicken, since the mozzarella dippers are on the menu right now. Its supposed to be a McChicken sandwich you use, but I went for the way cheaper chicken mayo burger instead. Honestly I would rather have had two of those than the Grand Big Mac.

Martynt74 · 15 Feb 2019 at 16:26

Yeah, i always find McDonalds manage the impossible task of ruining bacon.

Is the grande big mac basically a double big tasty?

Craig1981 · 15 Feb 2019 at 16:30

Not really. Its just a bigger Big Mac.

bsoltan · 15 Feb 2019 at 16:41

Why would they ruin a BigMac by adding bacon.. :confused:

robfosters · 15 Feb 2019 at 16:43

State of that bacon. A good vet would get that back on its feet!

Craig1981 · 15 Feb 2019 at 16:43

Probably going by the old "bacon makes everything better" idea. If it has been well cooked bacon it might have added something. Gave it a bit more flavour and a nice crunchy texture. But as it is, it added nothing.

MikeTheNative · 15 Feb 2019 at 16:57

I don't go to McDonald's much at all but if I do I get the chicken selects. I find their burgers pretty poor, even for fast food level.

Yep, I’m firmly in the #notabigmac camp.
