Today was the 1 year anniversary of my mums passing away. I took a holiday from work and me and my dad went out for lunch, just for a chance to talk and remember her.

Good meal. Nachos to start, with pulled pork and beef chilli. Followed by the Lets Meat Up Decker. A big sandwich with hand carved gammon, beef and turkey, with a couple of pigs in blankets on top. The place has a carvery, so I'm assuming the meat came from there. Was really good. Really filling too. No room at all for pudding.

Loving the portion sizes there. Hope you and your Dad had a good day.

Lies. There is always room for pudding. It doesn't go to the same place.

But that sandwich was really filling. I couldn't even finish the chips. Had about 5 left

Home made

Mine too. Soo good sliced up in pasta with a good dollop of pesto stirred in.

can of mackerel in spicy tomato sauce.
and disgusting, used ot like these, but haven't had added sugar in anything for a few weeks, and omg silly sweet mackerel is not pleasant.

why on earth does it need sugar in it, let alone 5.4% sugar.

First hot cross buns of the year.

Had lunch at Nic's NYC Deli in Glasgow. They have a great selection of sandwiches, hot dogs, pancake stacks, baked potatoes etc. All kinda New York style, but with a Glasgow twist.

I had the XXL sandwich, which has pulled pork, ham, roast chicken, pastrami, turkey, bacon, Monterey jack and Swiss cheeses, Jalapenos, pickles and fried onions (though I had mine without onions)

It was immense! Bear in mind that's only HALF the sandwich. It was a struggle to finish it, but it was SO GOOD!

tom_e · 10 Feb 2017 at 14:59

That looks immense!

bsoltan · 10 Feb 2017 at 15:08

Oh that looks brililant. Mmmm.

Tuppy_Glossop · 10 Feb 2017 at 15:24

Is that XXL £11.95 or are my eyes making me look foolish again ?

Close. £11.75. Which makes it the most expensive item on their menu.

It was my first time eating there though, so I just had to have it. I would say it was worth the money.

Tuppy_Glossop · 10 Feb 2017 at 15:38

My inner Yorkshireman would struggle with that, even though I can afford it.

monkeyspank · 11 Feb 2017 at 10:25

That looks amazing. But almost £12 is a bit much.
