The **Now Eating** Thread

Went to a restaurant in Bayonne last night, 27 euros for 3 courses - main course was beef, sauce, chips, potatoes etc. waiter genuinely came round asking if I wanted another plate of meat...

Indeed, how do you get that much meat for so little.

It was a place called 'la piece de boeuf' - if you are ever in bayonne go there - they just have a guy cutting it up as and when - as long as you want bloody or rare - I had the rare and my sisters partner had the bloody but my sister wanted medium and they cooked that separately and it was nice but not nearly in the same ballpark. I think it was about 17 euro to just have the main

France is amazing if you want barely-cooked beef.

And who in their right mind doesn't?

Dont start on that.

My mum complains that the steak I cook her is tough, but insists that there is not one bit of pink in it and it has some nice burnt fat.

She can cook it herself in future.

Burnt/well done fat and a nice seared exterior are certainly great. Ideally pretty damn rare or at worst medium-rare for the interior though (depending on the cut).

Bored, with massive headache, so made some minty lamb slices to cheer me up.

Got three left, mines kind of self inflicted, caffeine withdrawal for about the 6th time this year. Every time I have a bad night shift I reach for the caffeine and just keep drinking it. And been reading up, only takes 7days to get dependency back.

 

[DirtyJester]

Been there mate, far to fond of my caffeine too.

Dinner, sticky chilli chicken and noodles
