Like I said above, I did like it, but the combination of sweet and savoury was a bit confusing to my palate. I wouldn't rush to get it again. I think it would be way better without the maple syrup. Maybe a hot sauce instead or a blue cheese sauce. Or gravy.

No way I'm going out today in this miserable weather. Thankfully that new Domino's is available. Got myself a lunch deal. Small pizza with 2 toppings for £4.99. Tandoori chicken and Cumberland sausage. Very nice indeed

That's never a small pizza, the small pizza from Domino's around here is half the size!

Craig1981 · 31 Jul 2018 at 22:29

I can assure you that was a small pizza

Trying to lose a stone or so I've put on over the year, so it's protein powder, quark and milk smoothie for breakfast for me.

Nutter Butter cereal. Tasty!

jpaul · 2 Aug 2018 at 09:33

new one on me , a link where did you get them ?

Post’s Nutter Butter Cereal features fun little peanut-shaped corn pieces flavored with real peanut butter, real sugar, and real artificial flavors.
The cereal pieces are hearty and absolutely obliterated with a powdery peanut butter coating. The crunch of the cereal is equitable with that of the cookie, and I’ll be damned that the taste is too. Post nailed the Nutter Butter Cereal.

unitl I read peanut butter clause, they looked nice ...I like Posts's grape nuts

Real artificial flavours, as opposed to fake artificial flavours?

Got them for there. I've had nutter butters before, so couldn't resist buying a box. The taste is very nice

(thankyou browser history) your next Post mission - Day 7: Fruity Pebbles

Craig1981 · 2 Aug 2018 at 12:10

I like fruity pebbles and cocoa pebbles. Still need to try the cinnamon ones.

CORR!

That looks great!

Breakfast at Bill's in Glasgow again today. Smashed avocado on toast with poached eggs and smoked streaky bacon. This was really nice! The fresh lime juice squeezed over it gave it a really nice flavour

Tried a new place for lunch that I saw recommended on Twitter, Mora's Bar & Kitchen.

Starter was green pea and mozzarella arancini with mint and siracha yoghurt. The portion size was good and the arancini was really well made. And the siracha yoghurt gave it a very nice spicy kick!

Main course was lobster ravioli. The pic was taken before adding parmesan cheese and black pepper. The lobster was really nice and the sauce was fantastic! Wish the portion size was a little bigger, but otherwise no complaints

And dessert was vanilla & lemon pannacotta. Very creamy and a great finish to an overall very enjoyable meal

My kind of meal. Quality food without any fuss. Not a jus or a quenelle to be seen.

I had to google quenelle to find out what it was. Never heard of that before.

If you want quality food, look no further. Highest protein, all good carbs, no sugar and non fattening.

Breakfast was something loosely based on a McMuffin.

Home made muffin, oak smoked back bacon, Stornoway black pudding, cheese slice (or 'fake cheese' as we call it) and tomato ketchup. Washed down with a few cups of tea. Delicious.

Remember when Curly Wurlys were massive. Now even they're on a diet.

Off to a chinese buffet, I don't know why as it plays with my trombones. Then a BBQ after, which will inflict a full orchestra.

I thought that was KFC.

I’m all confused!

Wizzfizz · 4 Aug 2018 at 16:25

KFC does kill me so much. As you said, it must be the additives or MSG, but, I think it's the oil that does it. Chinese is alright ish, depending when the 'fresh' stuff is put out. Maybe I am intolerant at something. Might get that look at.

Craig1981 · 8 Aug 2018 at 16:42

Had breakfast today at Tim Horton's. Instead of my usual double sausage and egg muffin I decided to try the breakfast wrap instead. Its pretty nice, has a spicy sauce. But I still prefer the sausage and egg muffin.

Lunch today at Six By Nico's again, trying the new 70s theme. Was a good one!

Highlights for me were the Chicken Kiev, spam & mash and the trifle courses. The Duck a L'orange was pretty nice too. Thought it would be too sweet, but the orange puree was actually quite subtle and the duck was well cooked

Spuj · 8 Aug 2018 at 17:52

That's up there with one of the best menus I've seen you post from Six by Nico so far, and there have been a lot of very good ones. Everything there really appeals to me, looks fantastic.
