What is that beautiful monstrosity and where do i get one!?

Good lord! If I had a heart attack and died after eating that, it would have been worth it.
The Hairy Bikers buffalo wings sauce works quite well and is pretty spicy if you use the extra hot franks sauce as the base. https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/buffalo_wings_09457
Melt butter in pan, add some crushed chilli's and fresh garlic, fry for a minute or two then add Frank's. Can also add other ingredients like ginger, honey or whatever. I sometimes also add some extra hot chilli sauce as well. Frank's sauce is better as a base than a ready made sauce.

I’d have nipped to the chippie to lessen the disappointment.

Sir, yes Sir!! *salutes*
Lunch today at Six By Nico, trying their Best of 2017 theme, which was made up of courses from previous themes.
Starting off with the snack course. Consisting of smoked haddock bon bon's, truffle & parmesan popcorn, peanut butter milkshake and sourdough bread. Not bad, but I've had better snack courses. The bon bon's were a bit hit & miss.
Course 1 - Chips & Cheese - Parmesan espuma with confit potato and curry oil. This was SO good! I kept some of my sourdough bread and used it so mop up the leftover sauce. Yummy!!
Course 2 - Steak Pie - Speyside Beef shin, with onion sauerkraut, pickled onions, crispy onions and brioche. The beef was really well cooked. Not being a fan of onions, the other elements didn't do much for me. But I was able to eat most of it.
Course 3 - Mac & Cheese - Macaroni served with glazed chicken wing, charred cauliflower, cauliflower couscous and truffle. Another nice dish. The macaroni was firm and cheesy and it worked well with the chicken and the cauliflower.
Course 4 - Sea Bream Taco. Served with guacamole, pickled chilli and lime & red onion salsa. This was the only dish I'd actually had before from a previous theme. As before, it was fine. Not a huge fisher eater, but sea bream is quite nice. Didn't even tough the red onion salsa though.
Course 5 - Duck - Comes with blueberries, hazelnut, wild mushroom and cocoa. Also had some kind of potato cake underneath. The duck was well cooked and overall this was a nice dish
Course 6 - White Chocolate - The dessert course was excellent. A white chocolate parfait with passionfruit "yolk". Came with lime curd, coconut and... I honestly dunno what the nest underneath the egg was made of. It was sweet tasting though and really nice.

Nothing too pretty, just a plate of steak and eggs for lunch. Love it when the steak juices run into the egg.

In the week I eat this for breakfast.

What is it?
Caporegime
Spinach, kale, kiwi, mango.
Man of Honour
Looks awful but the kiwi and mango probably make it nice. I should try it!
Caporegime
Do you have to make it or can you buy it?

Looks like it's from Starbucks, unless he bought the glass. I'll go with the latter 
Just cooked a curry, first one of the year. Tried a different base gravy recipe and it was tasty.

That looks restaurant quality. Well done indeed. You need to splash out and buy yourself a tandoor. That would turn it from great to epic.

I'd love to invest in something like that, i'm very much a huge fan of cooking curries and although it's taken a long time to get 'that taste', it honestly did taste exactly like a decent restaurant's. I'd eat this stuff daily if I could hehe. Thanks by the way.
